Has anyone had trouble with system 5.0.4 and America online software?? Mine will come up but when I tell it to dial, it will sit and think about it for a while then it will hang up and come back telling me to check my modem settings, turn it off and on then dial again. This never works. I think its the software, because it used to work then it flaked out a couple of weeks ago. I have not called them yet because I have been testing everything to see if I could fix it. One other note. Space Ace GS will work from a hard drive. Just create a folder and copy all the files from each disk into it and launch the sucker. Its a lot eaiser to let it read from your HD instead of swapping thoes disk.

Mine hangs when I quit (finder desktop background and title bar appears, with a watch cursor, and that's all). Otherwise it works as before. I do occasionally find that it hangs partway through a download, but it's done that with previous releases of GS/OS too. From what I've heard from other AOL users, if you report this to AOL all they will do is tell you to remove your TWGS, run from the stupid original AOL floppy instead of hard disk, etc., none of which is viable.
