[QUOTE="horizonraver, post: 723393, member: 66719"] Hey.. Forgive me for my lack of knowledge on the subject but could someone please offer advice for my broken G4 ibook? It freezes about 2 minutes after the start up screen and has become non-functional for every day use. I have tried to delete files, and even some of the biggest programs i have but it still keeps freezing. I have tried to "zap the PRAM" as iv heard it being called by using the command,option, p+r keys but still no luck. Someone from another forum has suggested i re-install OS (version 10.3.7) onto my computer. What do you guys think? If i do this, will i lose everything on my computer? mac-forums seem to have the smartest mac users in the universe so i thought id ask you guys first! [/QUOTE]
