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

QUOTE (Bart S. @ Dec 30 2002, 12:11) Just like Aladin said, USB devices CAN be plugged and unplugged without trouble. Thanks for this guys, and sorry for the mislead. I thought that only Firewire was hot swappable. |
