[QUOTE="Thyamine, post: 404224, member: 30315"] Have you tried a more dedicated memory test like listed in here: [url]http://www.macworld.com/2006/02/features/speedmemory/index.php[/url] They're about half-way down the page: Member or Memtest. I haven't tried them myself, but given your problems it really sounds like a memory problem of some type (loading apps crash the system). Another alternative would be to remove a DIMM if that's possible. I don't know if your 1Gb is all on one chip or if you have 2 512's in there, but what you could do is remove one and just run on the 512 for a bit and see what happens. If you still crash then swap the 512s and see if the system is more stable with the other chip. Then you would know that it's one of your DIMMs. [/QUOTE]
