Sorry I didn't get back to you with any more details. I can't
remember what I said before but this is our set up with which we have
no problem running CellQuest.

CellQuest 3.1 (not 3.3, so I don't know if that makes any difference)
PowerMac G4 (AGP graphics)
Mac OS Z1-9.1 (international english)
192 MB of RAM
ADB CellQuest Dongle attached to Griffin iMate (driver 2.6.1)

We have two identical machines like this that are used for analysis
(mainly with FlowJo, but some CellQuest). They shipped with 9.0.2,
and were updated to 9.0.4 and then 9.1 with the downloadable
updaters. CellQuest was copied over from the G3/266 which they
replaced (which I think had been copied over from the 7300/180 which
it replaced).

PS I assume you are aware that your G4 powerbook doesn't have the
standard OS 9.1 (I think the Finder is 9.1.1 and some other
components are different). I wonder if that might be part of the
problem? Have you tried CellQuest with other machines running 9.1 (ie
machines which did not ship with 9.1 but were upgraded to it).
