So i've had this G4 (800 Mhz 512 Mb RAM) for a while now. It came with OS 9 and we upgraded to 10.4. After the upgrade it slowed down considerably but still functioned quite well (surprise? go mac!) Then it started to get slower and slower... and slower..... and slower. Now, whenever I do something moderately "taxing" on the system, it shuts down. Ex: Importing pictures to iPhoto, playing graphical games on facebook, any Flash game. Firefox tends to crash all the time. I reinstalled Firefox only to find it crashed even harder! Now the whole system dies when I'm in the middle of doing stuff. The screen freezes and starts whippin' out all this coded technical jamble. I would obtain a screenshot if I was able, but seeing as how it freezes.. I'm left hopeless and placing my frustration in the hands of this forums users.
For the sake of my sanity, please help me keep my mac alive, I can't even back up my hard drive without crashing it!
With thanks and peace,
Luke.
