When I upgraded my 9500 to a G4/700 from a G3/225 I began having lots of random freezes & app quits. Testing showed that the G4 didn't like the older, smaller memory I had been using sucessfully for years, the 8, 16, 32, & 64 meg RAM modules. Only the 128 RAMs worked without errors in the memory testing. Now I only have 128's in my 9500/G4. ---Alex -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
