[QUOTE="MacinMA, post: 1045684, member: 27434"] Heres the deal, I have the above mentioned computer it has a 1.33 GHz Power PC processor and 768 of RAM. Has been working fine for about a month of owning it, bought it used from PowerMax. All of a sudden today it became very slow, restarted it and it wouldn't go past the gray apple logo screen. I booted it up in safe mode and eventually the desktop appeared, but everything, every action and click is painfully slow. I then zapped the PRAM, again desktop finally appears but still very slow. I managed to copy a few vital things to my flash drive at pretty much normal speeds, thought everything might be fine, then soon after everything is very slow again and I can hear the hard drive just cranking and cranking. Any more ideas on what could be wrong here or what I can do? [/QUOTE]
