[QUOTE="steelcityrocker, post: 947742, member: 129102"] @harryb. I installed a 1gb stick that I purchased from OWC in early October. @hughvane. Before I did the clean install of Panther, I double-check the ram and they were seated nice and secure. One thing that I forgot to mention was that I had the logic board replace twice. Once for the video issues (machine was still covered under apple care at the time), and once because of the power issues (apple care was expired, but qualified for the logic board replacement). After the second replacement, the random shut-downs continued for a couple of months. But then like magic, the power issues stopped for over a year and a half until now. I did wiggle the power chord and nothing happened. I do have all the original disks and documentation so I'll try running a hardware check as well as check the caps. Until then, I'll keep my fingers crossed and hope that its just a fluke. [/QUOTE]
