theres people saying that a computer running mac OSX shall never crash. What should I think of mine, sometimes crashing for no appearent reason. could it be the non-kingston ram? or the 2408 mkII audio card?
the screen turns darker and the computer freezes on a message in 4 languages saying I have to press the power button for several time so it can shut. Sometimes it's accompanied by a few messages such as cpu0 panic and/or talking about ethernet routing or wrong ip adresses. But most of the time, th ethernet wire is unplugged from that computer (G4 2x1,25Ghz w/ 1,75Ghz RAM) any suggestions? did it ever happened to one of you guys? -------------------- you wish!!!!

Sure it can be the RAM. Also, on which flavour of OS X are you running?
Save the OS, which software are usually running? It IS a kernel panic, that is, something got very very wrong at a low level of the system. Usually it's either an old version of Panther (below 10.3.6 mostly), some software (I had mines with some JAVA apps), or stupid things like RAM not totally Mac compatible.
