Ok, so my g4 iBook (12" 1.33ghz, 512mb ram soldered, running 10.5.7) is having issues
On startup I get the one beep then the chime... supposed to mean there is no ram detected right? but the ram is soldered on the board....
second, if put to sleep it is more often then not now turning the fans on full and not waking up, requiring reboot...
On a side note, I haven't been able to repair permissions since I had a kernel crash a while back that required the whole OS to be reinstalled
So is my ibook pooched or are there some possible solutions for it?
Should I zap pram, and downgrade to tiger? will the downgrade even help?
could it be my HD is going?
suggestions are appreciated
