Ever since I loaded the most recent upgrade to my virtual pc, my
computer will without warning shutdown. Today I was simply working on
a word document. The screen suddenly dims and announcement in four
languages tells me I need to restart my computer. I am using system
10.4.7. I have 1.5 GB of sdram. I have 7.0.1 of virtual pc with
windows xp and I was downloading the upgrade to 7.0.2. I have never
had any problems with my powerbook until that download. Now I have
constant problems. I uninstalled virtual pc, that stopped the constant
crashing, but it my mac has still crashed twice since. Does anyone
have any idea what to do? Microsoft of course offers no help without
paying.

You're describing a kernel panic and it can be caused by hardware
problems or something corrupt in your system.

Since you mention Powerbook... we have two laptops at home and I support
about six at work. Since installing Mac OS X 10.4.x they have all had a
dramatic increase in kernel panics when attempting to shut down. Some
are installed using imaging software and others were installed from DVD.
They range from an iBook, to Titanium to Aluminum machines. I fully
believe Mac OS X 10.4 has a bug in it related to laptops.

If this sounds familiar the best advice I can give is to log out first
and then shutdown. It reduces the potential for corruption.

Hope this helps! bill
