Erratic behaviour. Kernel Panic. RAM problem? HDD? iBook blues..
I dont know what's wrong with my iBook.
At first, safari kept on crashing. I deleted plists (Safari prefs files) and Safari ran again using new default plists... for awhile. Then it crashed and wouldnt start at all.
Then I got my first kernel panic (BSOD of OSX)
I reinstalled OSX TWICE trying to figure out if updates were causing the problem.
I also tried Apple Hardware test from my installation disc. Everyiting ok.
After that, I got a shock when my applications would not run! Safari would exit. YM crashed. MSNmsgr crashed. And then the kernel would panic (like BSOD).
I also removed RAM i recently installed.
PC2700 256MB Kingston.
According to Apple, the iBook G4 1ghz uses PC2100 RAM but is compatible with PC2700 RAM.
I tried Apple Hardware test again from my installation disc. Everyting is fine.
But the system hanged on startup. No login screen at all.
I tried reinstall OSX. But the installer (booted from DVD) does not detect my HDD!!!
shocked, i thought that my disk had failed.
Diskutility of the installer. cannot repair the volume.
HFS: volume okay
Volume ... corrupt.
So, I erased the HDD.
Rebooted and now installer recognizes the disc.
So i just reinstalled OSX for the FOURTH time.
Now im really confused...
What could have caused the HDD to become corrupt?
Was it incompatible RAM? (but the RAM should be compatible)
or is it my HDD failing?
I ran diskwarrior.
SMART HDD reports indicate that the disc is running normally.
I am really confused. Dont know what could be the cause of the problem.
I cannot risk my computer being unable to boot again as i use it for work. And when OSX cannot boot and I had to reinstall (note, Install and archive was not available as OS DVD was a lower version than the installed version) and all my files were gone. Luckily, i had a backup.
Hi, and welcome to Apple Discussions.
It is doubtful that you have been seeing is a kernel panic, since a kernel panic does not give you a blue screen.
The hard drive can be corrupted if you do a forced shutdown instead of a normal one. If you were stuck on a blue screen repeatedly, it is my assumption that you did repeated forced shutdowns. Any and every time you do one, you should repair the hard drive before continuing to work.
I don't understand why Archive and Install was not available to you. I have started over after updates with my 10.3.0 CD and used Archive and Install. There should be no problem in that regard.
The iBook G4 Discussions can be found here.

Mac Pro kernel panic, RAM does not seem to be problem
My Mac Pro (late 2006) now has kernel panics at startup. Problem first happened while computer was in sleep mode, a second kernel panic happened about 10-15 minutes after reboot the first time. Now it happens at startup every time. Zapped PRAM multiple times to no effect. Tested original 10.4 install disk, as well as 10.5 and 10.6 upgrade disks with all external connections removed and from a cold boot. The 10.4 disk causes the kernel panic every time. The 10.5 and 10.6 disks do too, if the C or D key is depressed. The upgrade disks will hang in a gray screen (10.6) or pale blue screen (10.5) with no keys depressed--computer keeps running but fails to boot. Also tested the RAM (4 X 512 MB) in different combinations of one pair in the top riser board (and switched risers, and removed lower board completely). All resulted in kernel panics. Next option?
To anyone finding this thread in the future looking for help on a similar problem, the CNet forums Mac section gave me the correct advise: replace the video card. The stock GeForce 7300 was causing the kernel panics. I replaced it with a Radeon HD 3870, from eBay, and everything went back to normal operation. (I did also have to upgrade my OS for the new card to work properly.)

Help! G3 freaking out/kernel panic/memory problems
Hi All,
I put some pc 133 512 mb memory in my G3 [which is actually pc 100, but supposedly should work fine] and then it kernel paniced.
Now it mostly seems to recognize memory in the slot closest to the screen. But only 64 and 32 mb sticks.
Plus, it only boots to OS9 which is on a seperate partition to OSX which is where it is supposed to go, even after setting OSX as the startup.
It also always wants the time adjusted- perhaps the battery is flat- I put it all aside for a month after it happened.
Could the 512 MB pc 133 have fried something? It seems very fragile.
Safe start just keeps rebooting, and X on startup is ignored and os 9 starts.
HELP!!!
Any ideas gratefully received,
WumpsdadHey annexit,
Yes I get a lot of donated computers so I have probably 80 or so sticks of RAM around here mostly PC 100 and 133 out of both PCs and Macs. I'm constantly sorting through them and marking them: "Works w/ iMac G3, Kernal panic in iMac G4, Works in tower G4 Sawtooth, not recognized...etc."
..old G3 iMac 500 Mhz with one 128 and one 256 PC133 (probably scammed from a G4 tower when I upgraded that),
Was planning to replace the 128 with a 512 PC100 - I saw the post from spudnuty
If you look here:
http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/apple/memory/iMac/G3450MHz_500MHz_600MHz700MHz
OWC sells a mix of PC 100 and 133 for that machine. They are very good at taking it back if it doesn't work.
Is your G4 Tower still on your net?
running panther, safari crashing and I can't print to the attached printer from the intel laptops wirelessly..
Hmm that should work. I use a MDD G4 Tower as my workhorse and am able to print to it no problem. It's running Leopard now however but I don't remember a problem when it was running Tiger.
Running Panther could be your problem. I was lucky when I bought an iMac G4 for $50 (bad hard drive) in the bottom of the box was a complete set of Tiger CD installers (rare).

Kernel Panic when using Garageband with Blue Snowball USB mic
*HI ALL,*
*I purchased Mac Pro recently about 3 weeks ago. I am on the latest updates including the recent firmware update. However whenever I use garageband with external USB mic(Blue Snowball) my Kernel Panics and OS freezes and forces me to Power On again. It happened 20 times so far in few hours.*
*I opened garageband first time today after bought this external mic from apple store. I did not use garageband without this mic plugged into USB, I only used garageband with MIC plugged in and in couple of minutes to 5 minutes of using garageband the Kernel Panic occurs. Need your help please. Here is the message I get after login again which I reported consistently to Apple. Any immediate help is appreciated. I use iMove, iPhoto and other apps without any problem. Harddisk verification went o.k.*

Kernel Panic during hdd intensive process
Hi there,
I have been suffering from kernel panic tipicaly during hdd intesinve process like fixing disk permission, but it often happen during shutdown phase. AHT extended version ran well indicating no problem. Onyx says startup disk should be fine.
Thanks in advance for adding your comments on this one.
This last report has been generated during such process.
By the way, it is funny to have Panics Since Lat Report numbers like this

Kernel Panics, Drive Corruption, Directory Issues.
Desktop M8840LL/A Dual 1.25GHz PowerPC G4 (FW800) MDD
2GB Ram, 2 WD - 500GB IDE Drives Internal, 4 SATA Dr (2 WD - 500 GB SATA internal 1 WD 500GB SATA, One WD 640GB SATA external ), Sonnet Tempo SATA X4i PCI Card, ATI 9600Pro AGP, 1- 23in Apple Cinema Display, One 24in Samsung Display. 3 Firewire 250Gb WD external Drives.
This setup was running great for 2 years until a four year old WD drive failed 3 weeks ago and corrupted its data etc. I had the data backed up so no panic.
I decided to replaced it 3 weeks ago with a new 500GB WD IDE and reinstall 10.5 and migrate users for that drive.
Ever since I have been getting daily if not hourly kernel panics and issues with ALL drives on my system.
At one point the system loscked 4 drives and I could not access them at all.
Discussion group helped fix that issue.
I have managed to saved all my important data to a 500GB drive without a system on it and hopefully can deal with the issues at hand without worrying about the data.
Booted from my System 1.5 install disk and had a dark grey/ Must restart your mac screen while I was booting from the DVD!
Did an Apple Service diagnostics on the machine and all was great - no issues.
So I did a clean install on a drive and all looked great!
No other software installed except the system.
Rebooted OK.
I then did the apple software update and restarted.
No startup!
Rebooted with option key down - no drives??
I have been working on this for three days and seem to be going backwards at best.
I can boot sometimes and usually get a kernal panic eventually.
It can happen right away or an hour later.
Sometimes I get a message "your computer was shut down etc" sometimes I don't!?
Sometimes I get a startup chime - sometimes I don't!!??
What should I do next?
Advise whatever info you might need and I will do my best to provide it.I stripped my Mac down to barebones incluing original 80GB Drive 512 RAM and Original Video card and started over.
To make a long procedure shorter I found that all hardware was OK and after running ASD to confirm I reinstalled all my hardware/Add ins except for drives.
I then started to check each drive individually with Applejack and then formatting and reinstalling virgin systems on each drive.
Applejack and/or the system DVD would not fix and/or install on three of the Hard Drives (1 IDE 500GB and 2 500GB SATA)due to permission corruption. I could not do anything with these drives at all!
When I had these individual drives in the computer I experienced kernel panics with every one!
All the drives were under warranty and Western Digital replaced all of them. (I cannot begin to tell you how great Western Digital was in turnaround time and cross shipping and help in this matter.) Their warranty service is the best I have ever experienced bar none!
I am now running non stop for nearly a week without any kernel panic or problem whatsoever. I have also noticed a significant speed up in my computer.
I have rebooted many times and run non stop for days at a time.
I maintain my computer with maintenance scripts once per week and do it faithfully and this type of permission issue can still occur!
Without my backups there would have been a disaster for me.
Many thanks to all the peolpe that emailed help to me from all sources.
Sometimes out of the worst of situations good prevails. -
Battery Failure and Kernel Panics. Help!
Hi all,
Thanks in advance for your help.
About a week ago, after I had left my computer alone for two days, it randomly shut off when the meter up top said it had 40 minutes. Then, when it was closed in sleep mode and I opened it, it told me it had to be restarted--which I, through reading the forum, found out is a kernel panic. Since then it has not given me any more kernel panics, however, it consistently turns off at about the forty minute mark. This is what I have done so far:
attempted to recalibrate the battery, which hasn't worked/I don't know if it really can because it doesn't get below 20% without shutting off. (btw, when I turn it back on, with the plug in, the battery is not dead, it's at around 20%).
have done the first three steps in the x guide to kernel panics.
Does this sound like a battery problem, and if so how do I solve that?
or does it sound like a kernel panic, hardware problem?
Thank you so much for any help, I desperately want to fix my computer.
Besos.
ibook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.8)Hi alby23,
Welcome to the Discussions.
If your computer is two years old, it's in need of a new battery. If you open System Profiler (Apple menu>About This Mac>More Info) the battery's capacity and charge cycles will be listed. If the Capacity is ~2000 you have less than 50% of a new battery's which is 4400mAh.
You may be able to solve part of the problem by resetting the PMU. That may get the time/percentage back to a more accurate number. If that doesn't help, get a new battery.

Pacman induces kernel panic (intermittent)
Hello Archers,
I've got a fresh Arch install. I'm working my way through syncing packages I want from pacman. Two times now, a call to "pacman -S" has resulted in a kernel panic requiring a hard reboot.
I've booted into my Arch CD - it was still sitting in the drive anyway - and recovered the kernel and pacman logs.

It seems to happen when pacman tries to use the network. The kernel log also seems to suggest a network problem.

I haven't had any kernel panics when using any other network programs, just pacman. I can ping google by name and I can scp to my laptop running on the WLAN.
I tried googling, using the wiki, and searching the forums, but all kernel-panic related problem seem to happen at boot time, not in the process of using pacman.
Some other things about my system that may or may not affect things: it's an LVM over LUKS over LVM, the lowest LVM sits across several hard-drives, and it's got an AMD64 processor but I installed off an i686 iso.
Does anyone have any ideas?I just generated another kernel panic while trying to sync fuse, openssh and sshfs from pacman.
I now notice something not captured by either the kernel log or the pacman log. Before the call trace begins, I also get this message:
:: Retrieving packages from extra...
[ 8340.507133] Kernel panic - not syncing: cannot create neighbour cache statistics
Still looking for ideas here. It's really weird that pacman can work properly for a while and then all of a sudden causes a kernel panic. -
put my PowerMac G4 away for awhile and just got it out to try finding resolution for previous kernel panics...did everything suggested in other forums - zapped PRAM; ran hardware test (everything okay); removed DIMMs one at a time; tried starting from OSX Leopard install disk; did a complete wipe & reinstall of OS (10.1.x) using original installation disks, but nothing has cured the kernel panic!
Problem began after replaced original hard drive (went bad) with a new one, but hardware test shows no problem with that or anything it tests for. Can't run disk utility or any other diagnostic apps because the computer won't even run - kernel panic immediately upon start-up.
does this mean a motherboard problem is the likely culprit?
any other ideas suggestions?
thanks for any help!

Kernel panics/crashes persistent, replaced HDD, RAM, Logic board
I have a 2010 white unibody macbook that for the first couple years of it's life gave me no issues whatsoever. Recently, I upgraded from snow leopard to mountain lion and replaced my stock apple 2G RAM for two 4G sticks I bought brand new. Everything ran great for a month or two, the memory was recognized right away, and worked fine (activity monitor displayed everything no issue whatsoever) even running a bootcamp partition, and doing lots of more memory heavy stuff like video editing.
Then I started getting weird issues, like safari or chrome randomly chrashing over and over again, or other apps refusing to even open. Then I started getting windows style glitches where the screen would lag in updating and bits of different app windows would migrate across the screen. Then I got several kernel panics in a row, at which point I figured it was time for action.
I booted from a USB OSX 10.8 install disk I made a while back and ran disk utility to try and repair the disk. Disk utility told me it was fine. I backed up and erased the disk, and tried to re-install.. but the primary process would fail some 4 minutes into the progress bar with no error report.
I gave up and went to the genius bar, where they ran some tests (which turned up nothing on the HDD) and had the same install failure. They figured there was something wrong with the HDD writing system or something, and replaced it with a brand new 500G. The install still failed. They sent it to the offsite repair facility, where they took out my aftermarket RAM and put a pair of brand new 1Gs in. They also replaced my logic board. The install worked, and I got a fresh copy of mountain lion. Everything worked fine as I booted up and started restoring things from my backup drive, other than the tiny 2G memory was pretty much full with the computer just sitting there with say, safari and mail open. So, I cracked it open and put my old-new 8G's of ram in. Worked fine all day yesterday and today. Then about an hour ago i got the same weird crashes and glitches, and then finally it just froze and I had to do a cold power-button shut down. I put the apple approved brand-spankin new RAM back in, but it won't even start up normally. I get the grey apple screen and a progress bar, and then it powers off. I started in recovery mode, which seems to work fine. I ran disk utility and tried to repair the disk, the process failed like a minute in and the error said that it couldn't be repaired and suggested I wipe the disk.
I'm really not sure what else could be wrong if theres a brand new motherboard, OS, HDD and RAM.

Random Kernel Panics - No Panic Logs, Not RAM/HDD/KEXT related
I have a mid-2009 MacBook Pro. For quite some time, I've been getting random kernel panics with no panic log. They can occur at just about every time, but seem to happen most often as I'm clicking on something. Here's a list of some of the recent ones:
* Immediately after clicking the close button in iPhoto
* Immediately after starting to scroll in Aperture after upgrading
* Clicking on the Caffeine menubar icon
* Clicking on the Apple menu
* During a Final Cut Pro X import
* While shutting down immediately after the spinning bars appear
Again, this is definitely a kernel panic (gray slide-down screen, etc.) and there are NO panic logs in /Library/Logs (the PanicReporter/whatever folder is not there, in either main or user libraries, or even in the System library). It has occurred with NO 3rd-party kexts loaded (verified by kextstat | grep -v com.apple.) and the issue has survived through OS reinstalls (though I haven't yet nuked'n'paved because I haven't had time).
Currently running 10.6.7 on a 13" MacBook Pro Mid-2009 (MacBook Pro 5,5) with 8GB of OWC RAM, 240GB OWC SSD in an OWC Data Doubler, and 1TB Western Digital HDD, but the issue has existed since I had the machine in its stock 4GB/250GB HDD/Superdrive configuration (i.e. swapping RAM, replacing the HDD, and even removing the optical drive have not helped.I ran Repair Permissions and there were several issues there. I then downloaded the installer DMG and it did install successfully. I will repost here if there are any future issues. Thank you for the suggestions!

Suspected iMac factory RAM problem, kernel panics?
I've lurked on these forums for a while, and had a mostly problem-free experience with my Mac, but I believe I have some circumstances which warrant creating my own topic. Here's my system specs:
iMac 21.5, mid 2011
2.7Ghz Intel Core i5
AMD 6770m 512mb
12GB RAM (2 2GB Apple default DIMMS, and 2 4GB Crucial DIMMs.)
OS X 10.7.5 Lion (the product listing in my username was made before the .5 update.)
I have had my mid-2011 iMac for 17 months, and began experiencing random kernel panics about once a day, for the last week or so. At first I suspected it to be an issue with the sound card because most of these panics happened while I was in Skype calls. I ran AHT and everything came up clean: I checked Skype, iTunes and Software Update (no updates were found for any of them.)
Even though AHT passed my RAM, I read up on kernel panics again--and even though my computer had no signs of being slow at the time of the panics, I dreaded that that might be the issue. I ran Rember, a frontend for memtest, with all of my RAM installed, and the computer panicked during the block sequential test. No other programs were running at the time. I have been using the 8GB of Crucial RAM for nearly a year without issues, but I still removed the bottom pair of DIMMS, which turned out to be the Apple-installed RAM. (It is likely that my father switched the Apple sticks to the bottom while helping me install the upgrade.)
I ran Rember again and found that the Crucial RAM passed all tests; since no other programs were running at the time, it leads me to believe the factory DIMMs may be faulty. My plan is to use the computer with only Crucial RAM for a day and make sure no panics occur, then run memtest with only Apple RAM installed; if a panic occurs, then I will know they're faulty.
My iMac has AppleCare, but the nearest Apple Store is about 3 hours away (no AASPs here, rural area.) Is it possible to get in contact with Apple and have them shipme some new RAM, in exchange for the old? Can I contact the store and UPS or mail the computer in for service and have it shipped back? If the RAM turns out to be faulty, should I just replace it with more Crucial RAM?
In case someone can pinpoint the issue as something other than a RAM problem, here's my latest kernel panic log, which occurred during memtest. During all of these panics, I was multitasking (games, iTunes, Skype) but hardware temperatures were never beyond what they usually are under load (Processor below 50c, GPU below 70.) The "BSD process in active thread" has varied from kernel-task to cider, as well as Skype.

Thank you for reading. I apologize for the long post.Had another kernel panic: this time during Skype, as usual. When the kernel panic occurs, the sound will skip and loop while the alert displays--and it always seems to happen when either me or my contact is speaking. I can be in call for several hours before this happens. The only major contributor to these panics I can see now is my headset.
I am using a Razer Carcharias headset (I know, Razer is starting to fail me), that has no drivers, and standard 3.5mm jacks. The mic doesn't work, as the iMac is only line-in, but that never bothered me because I prefer to use the built-in one. The headset is set as an output device both in Skype and in System Preferences -->Sound. I've gone several days without being on Skype, and still using the headset for iTunes and so on--no panics. But after a few hours of Skype, no matter what I'm doing as long as that's running: panic. Every time.
Some people on these forums have reported issues with panics when plugging in headphones or removing them, but I've never had that sort of problem. The log which I post below makes mention of a razerhid text that did not appear before I removed the mouse. I removed that kext by uninstalling another Razer driver before making this post, and testkext does not show any kext by that name running now.
But I can't figure out why a HID kext or driver would interfere with sound devices. It must be the headset somehow, which greatly disappoints me, as I've used the external speakers in calls for a year without issue.
Others have mentioned fears that these kinds of panics might be an issue with the logic board. I severely hope it's not a logic board issue: because of the wait times with Apple repair, I'd probably have to have my parents drive the machine in, drive back, wait a week, and repeat. This computer is quite literally my livelihood, but I can't ask them to drive two to three hours one way just for that. (Sadly, the only shops in a 50 mile radius that even mention Mac repair are those that have techs, in some cases uncertified, do repairs. Can't void my AppleCare like that.)
I am considering contacting Razer support and seeing if they have any advice on the issue. Here's my latest kernel panic log (ignore the razerhid kext, removed it already)

Kernel panic after installing additional ram
Hi there.
(I think this should go here, not in laptop issues because it seems to be more hardware-related)
I have a laptop Acer Aspire 2920Z with 2x512 Mb stock ram and I recently bought an memory upgrade 2x2gb. Any of them works when inserted separately, but when I install both, I see kernel panic upon starting X on my i686 Arch installation (and /proc/meminfo shows that I have only 3Gb).
The same behaviour occurs when I try to boot from latest Arch install iso or x86_64 archbang livecd.
My BIOS is updated to latest version and it shows that I have 4Gb of RAM installed.
Right now I installed x86_64 linux kernel but I still have kernel_panic on booting my machine.
Is there any chance that I can use 4gb ram on my laptop?
Also, what are the ways to save those error messages that kernel panic provides? (aside from just taking a picture of the screen with my camera)cra wrote:I installed kernel by changing architecture param in pacman.conf, running pacman -Syy and pacman -S linux, as described in the corresponding page on the wiki, but without reinstalling every single package I have
Do that step.
EDIT:

Wait, you mean just booting the livecd gets you a kernel panic? Insert both of them at the same time, and the test them with memtest86+
Chances are your motherboard pins could have a problem. A problem that is noticiable when you insert both sticks.
Test them with memtest86+.

Post-Modification Problems: Hard Freezes. Kernel Panic?
So, I bought a used Dual 867MHz MDD back in March and it appeared to be 100% functional. It even had gone through the PSU/fan exchange program (and was still slightly loud). Comparing it to a Dual 867MHz MDD I got just a week ago, it had a different PSU, all different fans, a different heatsink, different optical drive, and a better GPU (Radeon 9000 Pro 64MB as opposed to the "new" DP867 having a GeForce 4 MX 32MB).
About two weeks ago I overclocked the system bus on the first DP867 to 167MHz, thus bringing the CPUs to 1.08GHz. No problems there. I even changed the heatsink to a copper one from a DP1.42GHz FW800 model. Again, no problems. Pre-mod I had a 4x512MB config of PC2700 Crucial DDR memory at CL2.5. I replaced those with a 2x1GB config of PC3200 Princeton DDR memory at CL2 (2-3-2-5 to be exact) that have heatspreaders. I didn't change the GPU (though I have a Radeon 9800 Pro I'm going to put in once I resolve my problems... read on...).
Pre-mod and post-mod any RAM that is PC2700 or faster is showing up as PC2600 in System Profiler, which I find very odd. That same Crucial RAM is now in the un-modded DP867 which has a 133MHz bus and it, again, shows up as PC2600. I find this odd.
When I first got the now-modded MDD, I replaced the stock 60GB IBM HDD with a Maxtor 200GB drive that has a 16MB buffer. Works fine. All this time, though, it was on the ATA66 bus. Post-mod, I moved it to the ATA100 bus and then my problems began...
The machine would boot just fine. In fact, it would boot so fast I never saw the blue OS X loading screen. Kind of freaky. Then it would HARD crash in 1-5 minutes. The only solution was to hold in the power button until the machine turned off. Putting the drive back on the ATA66 bus didn't help. Back on the ATA100 bus, I could not re-install OS X from a 10.4.3 disc I have (guy who sold me the first MDD included that and iLife '06) because it couldn't verify the hard drive. Fortunately, I had so little on the drive, I backed it up to one of the spare 60GBs by putting them both in the second MDD and using Carbon Copy Cloner (great app!).
With the Maxtor on the ATA66 bus, I could re-install OS X, so I did. I did the Archive & Install so as not to have to deal with migrating user data. First thing I noticed when it rebooted into a fresh 10.4.3 was the CPU temperature at 60°C! As far as I know, these particular PPC chips max at 62. I freaked. I shut the machine down and let it sit for several hours before booting back up and patching to 10.4.7 and re-installing the Developer tools (and patching those to Xcode 2.4). This was a problematic process, interestingly.
My system is now back to the way it was pre-mod and though it's working a lot better, it will still occassionaly hard crash/freeze. Is this a kernel panic? When I shut it down and then boot back up it tells me I can send a report to Apple, but rarely does it show me the report.
Here're the things I think could be problematic or just some possible ideas:
1. I was under the impression that the 167MHz bus would recognize PC2700 speeds, but all my fast RAM shows as PC2600, which isn't even a real speed. This worries me a bit, as slower RAM doesn't play nicely with the faster bus.
2. The Acbel PSU doesn't have enough output. I believe it's 360W max (what an odd value). I changed all the fans to be quieter (and thus slower), but the 120mm main case fan had to run off of one of the 12V power leads since it uses too much power to go off the mobo's 2-pin lead meant for said 120mm fan. I also added two 60mm behinds the heatsink which are on a fan controller (also hooked up to one of the 12V leads - I only have one HDD and one optical drive, so there're lots of leads). I also plan on putting a Radeon 9800 Pro in, but now I wonder if this PSU just can't handle the added pull from the OCed bus (and CPUs) and extra fans (not to mention slightly more power-hungry 120mm fan).
3. The PC3200 RAM's 2-3-2-5 timings don't sit well with the system. The MDDs should be able to handle both CL2 memory and a 2x1GB config according to developer documentation for them.
4. I messed up the ATA100 bus during the modding, though with nothing attached to it, I don't see why this should be an issue.
5. Repeatedly opening and closing the case has weakened the thermal paste and I need to re-attach the heatsink. I doubt this is true, but you never know.
6. The PSU is over-heating? I know they get really hot and I'm in agreement with other modders that the MDD design is not thermally officient.
7. The CPUs are overheating. Temperature Monitor, post-mod and not including the post-OS X reinstall temp reading, has yet to show these CPUs hit 60°C. They get to the mid 50's no problem, and in fact, get to the high 40s very fast (and then VERY slowly rise to the mid 50s from there). Overall, then, the system is warmer than it was pre-mod, which I find odd considering the better heatsink and extra fans.
8. These processors just aren't 100% stable at 1.08GHz. It's possible if you consider the way processors are made and why they get clocked to the speeds they get clocked to. Or...
9. The whole CPU board needs more voltage, which would require some more soldering.
Lastly, this machine seems to, since the mod, be cursed by the PowerMac G4 "No Sleep For You!" Bug. No matter how you put it to sleep or wake it up, only the fans kick in on wake-up and none of the rest of the system. Holding the power button shuts it down, and after booting it tells me I can send an error report to Apple, and again it only occassionaly shows me said report. My father has a un-modded 733MHz Digital Audio G4 that can't sleep and my un-modded Dual 867 MDD can't sleep (it wakes up, then hard crashes about 5 seconds later).
Any information would be greatly appreciated. Not to knock the fine folks at MacMod.com, but I haven't been getting the kind of feedback on all of this I was hoping for there.

Thanks in advance!A few people out there have assured me that if I don't max out the system in terms of add-ons and things, the PSU should be more than adequate. I have 1x fan controller, 1x HDD, 1x optical drive, 1x graphics card in AGP slot that doesn't require an extra 12V power lead, no PCI cards, only two sticks of RAM, an overclocked system bus, and one fan hooked to a 12V lead rather than its 2-pin connection on the mobo (after discovering it doesn't run on said 2-pin connection). I've also taken out the case speaker to allow air to be pulled in through the top of the case.
I plan on adding two more fans to the fan controller (it can support 4). These fans will go at the bottom front of the case (under the face plate) and run at low speeds just to make sure the process of air flowing through the lower case starts off strong. So, two 60mm fans start it, the 120mm fan forces it past the heatsink (though as many probably know, not the whole heatsink - what a great design...), and then the two 60mm's behind the heatsink pull hot air out of the case.
Thanks for the info about System Profiler, Malcolm. I think you're right, though - if the CPUs were overheating, it would shut down. That's the whole point of the TAU's or whatever they're called.
I'm starting to think that either the 2-3-2-5 PC3200 RAM is suspect, or the processors are not stable at 1.08GHz. I'd downclock them back to 867MHz, but I think I need to buy some surface-mount resistors for that, and I really don't know what kind to get (as in, how many ohms). -
G3 ibook kernel panics in 10.3.9
Hi, I'm trying to revive my old G3 ibook dual usb - it had run fine in OS X (10.3.9) for a couple of years (after replacing the hard drive) - but suddenly started getting freezes/kernel panics etc. I changed the ram - did complete erase and installs and all the usual things - resetting the pram/vram etc. but without success - the display is fine - so I'm assuming the logic board is ok. The odd thing is that OS 9.2.2 works fine with no problems - so hardware doesn't seem to be an issue.
Any suggestions? It's a shame to dump it as it's still very useful - though using OS 9 is rather limiting.
Barry SHi Ronda,
It was your advice some years ago that saved this ibook from the trash by suggesting I replace the hard drive - so thanks for that. The original CDs - yes I do have (OS 9.1 - 4 CDs) - which I've used successfully to restore it.
In answer to your question - yes I believe the 3 x OS 10.3 install discs are the retail version. The ibook is 500MHz. Optical drive is a CD-RW CRX 700E - driver version 1.4.7.
It came with a 256MB ram module - which I replaced with a 512MB module - I have tried swapping these - as I know some kernel panics can be caused by bad ram - but still the same. When it's running on 10.3.9 it sometimes even freezes when booting from the start up disk.
This may just be my imagination but it does appear hotter running on 10.3.9 rather than OS 9.22.
As I said in my post, it did run fine for a couple of years - so these freezes and kernel panics are a bit of a mystery.
Maybe you are looking for
