Powerbook G3 (Pismo) & OSX Tiger

I installed Tiger on a Pismo worry free ( once I realized it). I had a separate 5gig partition empty and installed it. I still have panther as usual and still using it. The first advantage I noticed was being able to use each Disk utility for repairs now. Once panther broke from a power outage and would not bootk, to I booted into tiger and disk utility fixed it. Otherwise tiger is a little to slow for me and I can,t figure out the search function or turn it off.

HELP!
I am supposed to be a MAC guru but my G3 Prismo is giving me a fit! My son uses it and needed a larger hard drive. I upgraded the drive to 80gb, went through the restore scenario, upgraded the firmware and was ready for Tiger. I bought Tiger for the computer at the Apple store and tried to load it. I keep getting a grey screen with ablack rectangle in the middle - nothing else - no sounds - no joy! I asked the Apple Store GURU to help and was told they don't support G3s

It only has 256 RAM but if I can't get Tiger to load, I don't want to spend the money for RAM.

Can anyone help me? I hate to throw the computer in the trash pile, it passes the hardware testing and works fine in OS9.

Thanks
