4. Re: Checking Console logs. What about messages related to
pmTool? This is the helper process for Activity Monitor.
5. Have you disabled any fonts?
6. Does System Profiler work OK?
7. You could try reinstalling Activity Monitor from your Mac OS X v10.4 Tiger Install disc using the shareware application
Pacifist. Pacifist has excellent
documentation, so you should have no problems with it.
Since Activity Monitor has been updated since it was first shipped on the Install discs, you would then also need to reapply the most recent Mac OS X Combo Update corresponding to the version of Mac OS X you have installed in order to pick up all other changes made to Activity Monitor since it was first released.
Good luck!
