Also what is the spec of the book forgive me if you have already said (must of missed it). The reason for me asking is i had a G4 12" ibook 800mhz with the lot added 640 ram 40gb hdd airport and everything. Spent a fortune on it only for the logic board to go. And forgive me if i am sending false panic into your head but the ibook started by showing signs of what yours is doing, I ignored it Things got worse, more frequent crashes, blue screens at start up, dates reset, kernal panic on a daily basis and i lost a lot of money Through that book. Get it checked or use the hardware test cd to see if there is anything tests faulty. vicki _______________________________________________ iBook mailing list iBook at listserver.themacintoshguy.com http://listserver.themacintoshguy.com/mailman/listinfo/ibook Listmom is trying to clean out his closets!
