Hi, I've had problems lately that I'm not sure about.
It started with a restart, which led to redraw issues and freezes. Big blocks of screen and windows that remained or were ghosted and everything would just freeze up. After many restarts I was able to get most of the important files backed-up.
I went for a total re-install of the OSX during which there were sporadic freezes that cleared themselves up. After the OS re-install, there are still the big blocks of screen and windows and redraw problems, so I'm not sure what elements are bad. I'd rather not just start replacing things and wonder if any of this points to something in particular. It passes all tests from Disc Utility and Techtool Pro so I'm clueless at this point. If anyone could help, please do... I really want to keep this computer if possible.
Computer is a G4 733MHz, 1.25 GB RAM, 250 GB HD, running OSX 10.3.3 (usually 10.3.9 before probs), video card is GeForce2 MX, 32 mb VRAM. Anything I'm missing?
Hopefully someone can help out, I'd be super stoked. Thanks much...
