Hello jim Wow, yeah, the problem seems to occur when I have opened Safari (of course, that's when I want to gain quick access to downloaded files on the desktop using expose), but also when I have openend several other apps, such as the terminal, entourage and vectorworks... But with just acrobat or indesign open, expose works just fine... So maybe it's a very mixture of both of the answers, maybe having openend some apps causes expose to use a part of the memory that is maybe faulty (which of course can be) - maybe by swapping expose out?
But for now, I just switched expose off, I'm currently praying the RAM isn't faulty and yeah...thanks for all your replies thomas On 18.02.2005 1:51 Uhr, "James Comas" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I had a similar problem with my Pismo (400, 512MB), running 10.3.7.
