[QUOTE="NanoBite, post: 540235, member: 13565"] It seems odd that you were successfully running all those apps until you tried to upgrade to 10.4.11 ... Have you tried re-installing the OS you were using prior to the OS X 10.4 upgrade? The reason I ask is that I had a problem with an iBook G3/466MHz running Panther where one day it just refused to start and to fix it I had to reinstall OS 9 over the Panther installation, then upgrade it from OS 9.2.2 to 10.3.9 .... That link you provided only works if you copy/paste it into a URL bar and then remove the last part which is a ). Then if you press enter you can access the link. The only reference to the G3 I could find is that someone had access to one in order to use Firewire Target Disc Mode to access their Mac that had been damaged by the 10.4.11 update. So, if you are running windows you must be using Virtual PC which apparently runs Windows very slowly .... if this is the case the report you link points to isn't relevant. Once you have Tiger installed again I suggest that instead of using Sofware Updater you should download the [I]10.4.11 Combo Update [/I]instead. This might help to determine if the problem lies within Software Updater itself.
