In June 2003, I replaced two Ram modules (64mb/128mb) with two 256mb modules from OtherWorldComputing (OWC) for my wallstreet g3 powerbook, and had been having a lot of freezes in both OS X and OS 9. I tried everything I could think of to try to fix the problem (including many OS X repair utilities), but couldn't figure it out (I assumed it was just an unfixable software problem). I just last friday swapped out the two OWC Ram modules (after reading on this forum that the wallstreets don't behave well with more than the apple recommended 192mb max), and put in the old 64/128 modules, and the freezing stopped (48 hours without a system freeze).
Well I've got a Wallstreet with a 256 and a 64MB SODIMM. While there are occasional glitches for the most part it runs fine.
