[QUOTE="harryb2448, post: 1450952, member: 42497"] G'day and welcome to the forums. 100% sure the DVD is a full retail install DVD, not a copy nor a silver grey model specific disc from a G5? The replacement optical drive was an ATAPI IDE drive? The memory you replaced was purchased from a Mac specialist as G4's are very fussy about memory and must have low density modules, not the cheaper high density found in Windows machines? After that maybe the hard drive. [/QUOTE]
