[QUOTE="Kevriano, post: 905259, member: 18605"] Ok. As a start run Disk Utility form your Tiger install disc and check permissions and repair the Disk. That should highlight and repair anything that it can. If you have access to it, run a hardware test too, as this will check for faulty RAM, which could be the cause here. Your G4 is capable of running Tiger without any problems, I have done so on a couple with less RAM, so your spec shouldn't be an issue. Come back again once you've tried this and let us know the results. [/QUOTE]
