Scott replied: > already tried this on all systems.. all is fine FWIW, while I'd trust the Test CD if it said something was bad, I *wouldn't* necessarily count on it if it indicates no problems... We lost months trying to find crashing problems that turned out to be caused by bad RAM *in spite* of the Apple Hardware Test CD indicating that all was well and fine. This was one of the first things Apple Support had us run, and even on the most thorough tests, the RAM kept getting flying colors, so we moved on to other potential issues. Finally, we starting pulling and swapping RAM cards, and sure enough, the problem went away once the bad one was out of the system, and the problem has so far never returned (well over a year now running smooth). We are just getting ready to put 10.3 up, so can't speak to that yet! Of course, YMMV, and I wouldn't suggest this will be the same for all, but since this happened to us, I've heard from others that they've had similar experiences... Regards to all, Glenn @ Schadowrider
