Well I have a G4 MDD PowerMac 1,25 Single CPU.
1 GB ram
2 Drives
1 orginal
1 Plextor PX-740A
Miglia TV-DVR
3 Harddisks

And Sometimes my mac freezes and when I shut it down and try to restart it I see this message at my screen. I am not really into debugging kernel panics and etcetera so I started cheking out the log files.. but they are all clean

/var/log/system.log | No trace of anything
/var/log/windowserver.log | nothing
/var/log/secure.log | nothing

So here is a screenshot:

Well Thanks in advance for helping me out on this one!

Thx I will check it out!

Edit:
My HD seems to be a problem in the AHT. => http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&l...mp;btnG=Search. Googling around makes me come to a conclusion that I need to backup my data ASAP!

Edit 2: it's defenitely RAM! I removed one part and no more errors! I am verry happy right now!
