I am glad that you had the foresight to back up your data though. Many people do not. Well, you know me Kyle. I am not the total fool I make myself look like. I will be yelling @ apple for quite a while if my RAM doesn't come back. I marked that with my name in sharpie on the label in July. Of course, if I get a case with no scratches I won't really care all that much :-) You will most likely get your Ram back, but you will not get data back from your HD.

Jag Issues (Ti667)
1) Takes 15 minutes to get off the boot screen and into a 50%grey, then X loads in 35 seconds. 2) first install: 6.5 hours on a blank hard drive. Second install 3.5 hours without installing second disc (no printer drivers, additional applications, etc). 3) Update process to 10.2.1, security updates and iTunes 3.0 took 110 minutes. (No, I have cable). 4) IE loads in 2 minutes, when its nice. 5) Eudora runs fast. It's the only thing that runs right. Which is helpful since I need my email. On a lighter note: 9.2.2 loads in 14.3 seconds. IE loads in 2, Office 2001 applications load in under 1. The only applications that load slowly are java-based clients. I want a tech to tell me what is wrong with my book. Not a generic response but an actual diagnosis. I will run applications on my end to test if need be. I love X, I am starting to hate this computer, though. -- Ryan Coleman -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

My guess is a hard drive problem, but it could be RAM or processor related as well. The firewire port is bad and apple knows it. If I had a car I would drive the 15 miles to the store at Mall of America and give it to them and have it taken away on location. But I don't. AHT gives back no errors. Never has with any computer I have had with problems. I did a complete Zero the first time installed X.2. I hadn't run X in 2 months at that point. I removed the extra 256 and tried that the first time, no help. Apple Store even ran AHT and got no errors when I was last in the store in late July. I am scheduled to get a new lobo but I cannot afford to lose the computer for any period of time. If I only had my certification for these computers I would have apple send me the new lobo and I would do the install myself. Also, I am about to go through the 4th power adapter for this computer.

I will run applications on my end to test if need be. I love X, I am starting to hate this computer, though. You'd have to ship it to me to diagnose it. You can't accurately diagnose a problematic Mac through e-mail discussions. That being said, I would Run Apple's Hardware test and then Tech Tool Pro. I would also suggest doing a Nuke and Pave. Zero all data on the drive and do a re-install. This will take a lng time, but will eliminate a lot of possibilities. There is definitely something wrong with your system Ryan. You need to have it looked at BEFORE something bad happens and you lose important data. I would guess you have a Hard Disk problem or bad Ram, but it is impossible to tell without getting my hands on it. -- == Kyle H.

You don't want to have to do that in your 667. It took me a full day. I can assure you Ryan. Yours is an isolated case. I have 2 667's and they are both running perfectly. -- == Kyle H.

Re: Jag Issues (Ti667)
This is why Apple tells people to backup before sending it in. And the point Kyle is well taken. No they will not. Kiss it goodbye. Sorry. You may not even get the same laptop back.
