OSX reinstalled, an error message

Working on my old TiBook as mentioned earlier, I located this error message I copied by hand from the screen of the newer dysfunctional PowerBook.

System Failure: cpu=0; code=00000008 (Unaligned stack) Lastest crash info for cpu0: Exception state (sv=0x007AF769) PC=0x000ABD88; MSR=0x00001030; DAR=0x00000000; DSISR=0x42000000; LR=0x000ABC4C; R1=0x210044FDB; XCP=0x00000098 (System Failure) Backtrace:

I do not always get this error message when the machine freezes, but I have seen it quite a few times.


Not to belabor the obvious...

I have no idea what the error message indicates, but this line troubles me: "Memory access exception"

The pattern of the breakdowns tells me it is a memory problem.
