I hope this is not OT since it is more of an OS issue than hardware (maybe) but I need some help. I have had serious problems on my Pismo since installing 10.3 when it came out. I actually got it working finally after a total wipe of my drive and all was fine until I upgraded to 10.3.4 when I could not boot at all. That's a long, sad story and I am not going to tell it. I ended up back at 10.2.8 and all was great. But I really missed Panther so I tried and it did install but some "pre-binding" did not get done apparently as I cannot use several Apple apps at all including mail and itunes. Also I have no sound in the finder. Sound works in some other apps. Disk Utility run via the Panther CD now shows several "orphaned siblings" and other directory problems that it cannot fix. I ran Disk Warrior and now Disk Utility stops quick saying it cannot continue as "hash table full". There is no info on hash tables on the Apple support site. The computer runs, enough apps work to make it usable, but I am wanting it to be as it should be. I have often suspected that my RAM is of a brand not compatible with 10.3 and wonder if changing it would help. I have 2 sticks totalling 512 MB. Or maybe the hard drive is just not able to keep itself in proper order? Anybody got any advice? Thanks, Greg
