Hi, everyone!

I bought my Powerbook G4 from a friend about a year ago. This is my first Mac, so I am still very new to everything...but this past July the logic board was replaced (old one crashed) and since then, I have been getting multiple kernel panic's. I noticed that I would get a panic with a light tap to the bottom of the machine, so I removed the cover, checked and tightened the connections and the ram. It seemed to be fine for about a week, but it is now crashing again.

I have saved and attached 3 of my most recent panic reports...

Any help would be greatly appreciated! I would like to know if this is an easy fix, or should I just buy a new laptop?

I am a photographer relying on this laptop for I'm sure more than it's capable of...but a few times I had received a panic in the middle of editing photo's. :(

Your Mac's Specs
MacBook Pro 500GB hard drive 4GB ram PowerMac G5 Dual 2.2GHz Mirrored 500GB HDD, Mac Mini, and more
Depending on the PowerBook model (i.e. Titanium vs. Aluminum and or 12" vis 15")

Some models of the 15" alum ... had problmes with one of the mem slots on the bottom of the logic board... if a tap causes the problem you may try one stick of ram at a time. Sorry but this is the best I can help with limited info on the machine.
