My PowerBook 12" is crashing regularly, once or twice a week freezing when using Safari (v74). It's usually a few minutes after switching on and connecting to dial up internet. Sometimes it comes up with the multi language errors, but usually just freezes and requires a power button restart.

Here is the message from the console log...

Those messages are of no consequence.

You need to post the kernel panic log.

Go into Apple System Profiler and look under the logs tab.

here is the Kernel panic log, but it's dated May 1, so I didn't think it was relevant...

Doh! I never do that. I'm one of those folks that feels proper grammar and spelling in a post is important.

My fault.
