According to some docs that someone at Apple posted here months and months ago, the 9 means that test that failed is the Front Desk Bus test. The next 4 digits (0100) are supposed to be the bad checksum, however the last 01 means that "FDB toolcode encountered a fatal error and no checksum computed." From my experience, this is the same problem as the oft-discussed 911 System Failure wherein the ADB fails to resync (or some such) and is usually caused by high temperatures. I don't think a memory tester will do you much good with this problem; a cooling fan might. -- Scott Lindsey | I dig iguana in their outer space duds Claris Corp. | saying, "Aren't you glad we only eat bugs?" ames!claris!wombat| DISCLAIMER: These are not the opinions of Claris, Apple, wombat@claris.com | StyleWare, the author, or anyone else living or Dead.
