Hi all!
I don't know what to do. My G4 733 has been running like a tractor for nearly a year, but the last few days it seems to be in trouble  It freezes for no reason at all, it seems. It doesn't matter if I'm in Logic or in Netscape... I get a bus and an address error. First I thought that maybe I don't have enough RAM (384) but now I think that it is maybe my USB hub that is the problem. When it freeze I have tried to reconnect the USB hub and then it seems to be working again. Is it bad to reconnect the hub? Could I damage anything? And are there someone else out there who has a similar problem? This is a terrible situation

Thanks guys
 I have done all charlieb....but it still chrashes I talked to the man in the shop who have sold me the Mac and Motu ect. and he says that it CAN be the hub, but I need to get an other to see if it gets better. He also said that there is no harm in reconnect the USB hub or cables when the Mac is running. Still don't feel safe... I haven't done any installing of anything lately... I can't live without my Mac
