I keep getting freezes on my iMac. Ususlly it occurs after I experience some "stickiness" with the cursor. It maybe happening after the machine has warmed up, as first thing it runs for half an hour or so before freezing but on restarts the freezing happens in just a few minutes (independent of what program is running).

I've:
1) Zapped the pram
2) re-installed both systems (OS 9.2.2 and OS 10)
3) Changed the mouse
4) Changed the keyboard
Perhaps the kernel crash code that comes up on OS 10 (10.1.2 - build 5P63) after a freeze offers a clue? Unfortunately, I cannot understand it. Can anybody kindly throw some light on this?

The kernel crash message that comes up is:

Unresolved kernel trap(cpu 0): )x300 - Data access DAR=)x00000000 PC=0x0df70cd8

The first thing to check for is a bad memory chip.

Do you have any 3rd party RAM? If so, remove and see if the panics stop.
