Upgrading from Tiger to Leopard — mistake?
I own a PowerPC G5 Dual 2 GHz (late 2005, last desktop model made before switching to the Intel chip), with 5GB RAM, which is my bread n butter, being a graphic designer. Few months ago I decided to upgrade from Tiger 10.4.11 to Leopard 10.5.8.
I enjoyed the few extra features Leopard was offering, but soon after I started having issues which seem to get worse and worse, programs quitting, Mac quits with what looks like Kernel Panic (but I'm told it is not really KP), always after a restart (20 minutes to a couple hours later), with red LED #7 glowing, all kinds of issues that make me suspect my Mac is signaling to me it is ready to retire....
I'm wondering, was upgrading to Leopard a mistake? Do others here have similar experience? Should I downgrade back to Tiger?
Thanks so much...
Mac OS X (10.5.8), 5 GB Ram
