Hi There

Have a G5 Dual 2GHz Power PC, Recently I was losing the time, date and wireless settings so I assumed as my machine is now 4 years old the PRAM battery was up for renewal.

This has now been replaced but I'm still losing my settings, not all the time but randomly (maybe a few days, maybe a week). I have removed the (New) Battery and checked the voltage and it reads 3.6 Volts, I haven't checked this under load though, so presuming that the battery is OK, what else could cause this.. a failing System Board???

Thanks in Advance
