Thanks for that Dan--yes, another member, Fabian, just recommended them
too. And, I like their $49 price. Kerry

Re: anyone familiar with this problem/recommend repairer city of Chicago?

2005-03-16 Thread MacKenzie, Kerry N. 
Many thanks again Bruce & Malcolm. Sounds like the cost may not be too
horrific? 
That brings me to another Q before I hit the Internet/Yellow
Pages---might anyone happen to have a recommendation for a reasonably
priced G3/Wallstreet repairer within the city of Chicago (not the
suburbs--I don't have wheels), or failing that, a mail-in repair
company? (I did come across one on the net that sends you the box, picks
up and gives you an estimate for $79, but I didn't keep the name and now
can't find them again).  
I have seriously thought about attempting it on my own, after looking at
the reassuring pbfixit site & guides--it would save $$$, plus it's
tempting to test my skills or lack of them in a live-dangerously sort of
way.  But knowing how inexperienced I am, common sense prevails--I
really need to get someone experienced to do it as time is of the
essence.
Thanks again! I really appreciate it! Kerry

Me too, never seen a machine with bad VRAM that was variable.

Get it opened up and check the cables.<

The symptoms are the same, so I'm going to stick to the diagnosis of a 
bad cable or cable connection. Better than the alternative, which is 
that the video ram is failing, in which case it's new logic board time 
for you.
