Matt, connect it to another computer with panther. I thought too I had lost the data, but it was there, when I used the mac of a friend still running panther. Leopard doesn’t work with the my book studio edition. This sucks!

I’ve had two crashes since I installed Leopard last week. Yesterday I can in and my dock was missing and none of my applications would open. I rebooted from the disc, re-installed everything, and today it wont boot up past the grey apple screen. Did Leopard kill my machine?

I think it is a problem with the software… will try and see if its the RAM…My new intel duo core is crashing too…But am using 3rd poddy ram. Will see what happens when the original is put back in… Remember when installing 3rd party hardware that was not compatible the mac would crash when the software being installed was not compatible with the hardware….

Not just when gaming but when using final cut express or working in many windows…If I work in sound track and then do something in final cut a gray shade will fall down from the top of the screen telling me to restart the machine in Chinese Greek, Spanish etc.

Here is a cheat code for apple:
Ctrl+Alt+~ give_bettergraphics card

Got my machine 3 weeks ago…Maybe we got the lemon batch instead of the apples

My DP G5 2.5 will not go to sleep according to the set energy saver preferences. Was fine initially under Leopard.

Have unplugged everything. Quit all apps. Reset everything according to troubleshooting instructions. No go.

Monitor is turned off, but system remains on, fans humming etc.

I’ve had the freezing problems as well. Only my was probably worse than yours. My computer froze while the Time Machine was backing up on to my 500 GB hard drive, a My Book studio edition. I had to do a hard restart and it killed the My Book. It freezes whenever it connects to the computer and my computer won’t recognize that it’s connected. I’m not happy. I lost over 100 GBs of data.
