I've only got 128 of RAM. I'll be heading over to eBay next.

Software update appears in order.

I'll not be upgrading the Hard drive. I'm not going to put that much into this baby (It does have an external FW HD).

Thanks for the advice.

PS--I remember having this trouble on another iMac a while back. I ended up downloading a wierd version of LW from some european site through versiontracker (maybe?). That seemed to work at the time, but I'm a little hazy on the details.
