<div>Thanks. I've pulled the RAM and the harddrive to have checked out. I tried reloading OS - got the disks from the shop who sold it as a rebuild to my nephew some time ago. He's saying it's the harddrive if it doesn't boot from the disks. Found a good site to help with the dismantling to get at the hard drive.

<div>Thanks again. I'll post the result when I get finished.<br><br> </div>

<div style="WORD-WRAP: break-word">No idea on the specific panic you describe, but I'd make sure to pull any RAM out of the user-accessible slots, and then try to reboot the computer in "safe" mode (shift-S after the startup "bong"). See if you still get the panic message.

<div>That's the whole message. A guy at freegeek tried to help me, but only could direct me to your list. We tried to reset Power Management, but then found out there was no reset on my model. One time using control/function/shift/power then waiting 5 seconds and powering up, the harddrive logo with two options came up, but then we couldn't get it back after clicking one of them. It just went bakc to the panic state. Hope this helps. Let me know if any more info needed. Thanks again for your help.
