actually sir, this keystroke come from the old lc580 days and it is called the parameter ram. which most of your control pannel settings were stored in the 4meg rom chip next to the physical ram. so when you press the ctrl option p and r it zapped it and all your extensions and control pannel settings were set to default.

Mini by trying to install Windows Vista with Bootcamp. I was getting no startup screen, the option key did not bring up a boot menu.However, by holding down command option p r at startup, the machine came up
talking with Voiceover again.I am sure that this key combination is familiar to experienced Mac users, so
I'm glad I found out about it as well.I think that I'll pay the fine folks at the Apple store to install Windows
the next time around! Thanks.
