Timeout sets a variable in parameter RAM (stuff that gets loaded when your computer starts up) that tells the computer how long to wait before trying to access any hard drives. Timeout is really a simple control panel to use and mostly foolproof. It only has one button and one text box for you to worry about. To change the amount of time that you want the computer to wait then type in a new number. To reset the timer to the default setting then either type in '0' for the time or click the reset button. This program has been tested on a Macintosh Classic and LC under system 7.0 and a Power Macintosh 6100/60 under system 7.1.2 but there is no guarantee with this product.
To use: Just drop the control panel into your control panels folder in the system folder, enter a number and restart your computer.
