If It is Kingston ram send it back to the company and ask for a
change under warranty,
As for the Ram type i am a bit confused as i have a G4 Ti powerbook
and i just got rid of a G4 ibook 800 but the ram from my Ti is
different to the ram that was in the ibook . The ti ram is 144 pin
sdram and the ibook G4 was 200 pin ddr so the ram for the ti should
not fit in the ibook unless you forced it and broke the ram slot.

I have an iBook G4 933 MHz. Ordered a 512 Mb RAM module from a
company's website, by clicking their choice saying "APPLE iBook G4
800/933/1GHz". On the next screen it said "PowerBook G4 Titanium".
This is Kingston RAM, part no. KTA-PBG4266/512. It says on the
packaging that it is equivalent to Apple M9002G/A
But when inserted into my iBook, it made it crash and crash.
Sometimes it booted alright, but then mouse freeze after maybe 10
seconds. Once I got to open Apple System Profiler, which reported
"DIMM 1/J31 512 Mb DDR SDRAM PC2100U-25330". If I tried opening
System preferences, it crashed horribly with Windoze-like error-
messages filling the screen destroying the GUI. Switching back to
the original RAM-stick my machine performs perfectly again.
Is this really the right kind of RAM? Have I just been unlucky and
got a bad unit? Thought Kingston was a quality brand.
( My original 128 Mb memory from Apple has chips only on the under
side, whereas Kingston has chips on both sides. There are stickers
on the Kingston RAM with following numbers: 9905195-016.A00 and
1890223-0260534 )
