| I am unsure if this is something of concern, but my Max OS 10.4.6 Dual 2 GHz G5 just had a System Failure. Everything froze and black type came onto the screen. After the restart, everything seemed fine. Does this happen sometimes, or is there something I should try to fix? I would like to prevent a system crash if possible. |

| Kernel Panic What you had is a Kernel panic. Most of them happen once (I've had one on my Quicksilver), and never happen again after a restart. Some of them happen because of hardware. But yours you probably do not have to worry about right now. |

| If you have the discs that came with that Mac, try running the hardware test disc. It should be supplied wiht all the other discs. That should tell you if you have a hardware problem that might become an issue later on. Did you add anything to that Mac recently like RAM?
