[QUOTE="MacHeadCase, post: 378999"] On one of the disks that came with your iBook, there should be one that contains the Hardware Test. Pop it in the optical drive and restart holding down the [I]C[/I] key. When prompted, choose the Extended Test. This will check all the hardware components in your iBook: RAM, video card. etc. View the results and see what it has detected. Of course, it might not come up with anything if the problem is intermittent. And for safe measure, run Apple's Disk Utility from the CD holding down the [I]C[/I] key again to check your hard drive. Good luck! Let us know of the outcome of both these tests and we'll see where this will take us. [/QUOTE]
