frequent and worsening freezes and crashes
My much loved G4 PowerBook 1.33 is almost completely unusable. I have another 14" iBook and a new Unibody MBP but would very much like to keep my PBG4 haning around as long as possible. Here are the symptoms.
Starting last year it began to lock up on me. I'm talking about a complete freeze that necessitated a hard shutdown. The frequency of these freezes increased and now it happens within minutes of the reboot (which seems to take longer and longer) when I do get it up and running the system time has reset to 1969 and I get an error message. I'm wondering if all of this could be due to the clock battery being bad? Does anyone have any idea how to fix this? I've already replaced the DC in on this machine so I'm not afraid to take it apart. I just have no idea what the problem is.
Thanks for the help
Chris.

Thanks very much for the feedback. I'll give all suggestions a try. I've got all of the data backed up and am considering replacing the hard drive. I'll try to repair disk errors and let you all know what happens.
