Okay, so here's the deal. I wanted to finally use my Airport Express in conjunction with my existing network. I had all the audio cables and whatnot, hooked everything up. When I went back to my G5 to see if it registered the Express, I noticed that a new network had appeared. The name of the network was the default gibberish indicative of new wireless products. I proceeded to join the network, presuming it to be the Express connection. As soon as I did, the computer started acting up; iTunes wouldn't minimize, Safari and other applications didn't work, and the computer overall was going really slow. Eventually I decided to log out and log back in, but when I logged out the computer completely froze. I forced a shutdown via the power button on the front of the G5. When I booted up the computer again, it took forever and when the initial startup bar came to "Starting Login Panel", it stopped. I cannot get the computer to go past this phase at all. I have zapped the non-volatile pram, and it eventually comes to a screen with a bue background and a cursor (which I can move), but stops there. My last resort is to boot from a disk and wipe it clean, but I can't figure out how to get the Superdrive to open.
Any help at all would be appreciated.
