So far the client has not contacted me with a recurrence, so I hope that refitting the RAM remains the solution. In my long-winded way I am just pointing out that sometimes you can waste time when all that needs doing is something simple... Checking a fuse, checking a connection, turning everything off then back on again one thing at a time; these things so obvious with hindsight. Nir

You've practically saved me hours of trial and error and frustration. I think I would never have thought of this kind of solution - one of the most awkward things I've ever encountered during my 20~ computing years. BTW - I don't think its because of bad connection. I think it really is a memory management software error that causes Leopard to panic during boot because something was saved incorrectly to the vm maps records. Must be that removing the hardware parts forces it to reset these maps. Again - thanks a lot for sharing!! Thank you so very much for this solution.
