You need to restart your computer
Hello All, Yesterday I got the kernel panic message, You need to restart your computer. Hold down the power button for several seconds or press the restart button (in 4 languages) on my 1.3 Ghz eMac G4. I've been getting that A LOT on my iBook G4, and a few times on my Sawtooth G4. All running OS 10.4.11. It just seems a wee odd that 3 computers would all start doing that *AFTER Apple announced they no longer support Tiger. On the Sawtooth, one of the memory banks had mis-matched memory sticks. The other was matched. I pulled the mis-matched sticks so far I haven't seen the message there since. (knock on plastic) The eMac though, uses a single memory stick expansion (If I'm remembering correctly) The iBook, definitely uses a single memory stick. Any ideas what to do here?

Re: You need to restart your computer
The only time i ever got a You need to restart your computer message in 4 different languages message was when I used to install Jaguar in my sawtooth in the old days but instead of using a retail disk i used a powerbook G4 disk. Check to make sure that there are no hardware/software problems with all 3 machines, and that there are no FREQUENCIES running around back at your place that could be interfering with the processor. -- You received this message because you are a member of the iMac Group, a group for those using Apple iMacs and eMacs.

That's called a kernel panic.

As a engineer, I find Samsung to be at the bottom of the pile with the most fails. WD at the top of the pile. -- You received this message because you are a member of the iMac Group, a group for those using Apple iMacs and eMacs.
