Blue screen crash/freeze immediately after Intel iMac goes to sleep

Howdy all,
I have a new Intel 24" iMac, less than 3 days out of the box. Almost every time the computer goes to sleep (except twice so far when I first started using the machine) the screen goes dark for a few seconds, then turns light blue and freezes. Neither mouse movement or keyboard input will wake it up, and I have to do a hard reboot. This happens if I put the computer to sleep or just let it happen per the Energy Saver timed settings. Hardware test shows no errors. Screen saver has been disabled. All other settings and software was imported using the setup assistant from my previous iMag G5 running OX 10.3. Tried contacting automated Apple support (newly-reduced live tech support hours are NOT an improvement) and have come up empty. Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance...

  • Blue screen, crashes, freezes after ios 7.1 iphone 5s

    I've been using iphone 5s 64gb A1530 starting December 2013 without any problems. But after updating to 7.1 I faced blue screen crashes and freezes.
    Few sort of problems:
    1. blue screen appears then goes to gray and iphone falls asleep.
    2. blue screen appears then restarts then blue screen then restarts and loops until I will be successful with soft reset.
    I've been googling a lot for this problem and the solutions I tried didn't help:
    1. I switched of iCloud data copy.
    2. I restored from backup iCloud.
    3. I restored from backup iTunes.
    4. I restored as factory (unfortunately it still comes with 7.1)
    Nothing did help. Could you please give me advise how I can downgrade back to 7.0.6 or 7.0.5? Such resets are really annoying (over 20 times per day)
    In diagnosis part from Preferences I have a lot of kernel reports. If there is any way to heal my iphone or it's time to trash it?

    Finally Apple replaced the device with the new one. Service guy in Apple store tried to recover it from DFU mode but failed.
    I got no idea what ios7.1 brought to my iphone that after 4 months of normal usage it became a blue screen piece of metal. And maybe another app or virus crashed the hardware.

  • Blue Screen Crash on computer after updating Storm software

    My software ran fine , but after updating my Blackberry software, my system give me the blue screen of death.  The specific error is a multible Ir request.  My system crashed three to four times per day. This went on for at least 8 months.   Due to a virus issue I reinstalled windows XP and all of my software.  Due to previous issues I did not reinstall Blackberry Software until two weeks after rebuilding my system, during this time I had no issues.  I reinstalled From the CD then updated on the web to the current version.  Within 2 hours of install the same Blue screen odf death returned.  I am running on a Dell Latitude D820.  All computer updates are current.  All drivers are new after install.   Clean install is only two weeks old.  Anti virus installed.  Thanks For any help.

    On your re-install for the Windows software are you are you keeping all of your previous backups? It could the BB Desktop Software databases and registry that is corrupt. Try to re-install the Windows software and install BB DS from scratch without using previous databases. If you install on another PC using your same disk is it giving any problems?

  • White Macbook has delayed start with a blue screen and will not wake when it goes to sleep

    I have a late 2006 MacBook that I recently bought used.  When I got it I was experiencing very long boot times.  It would have the apple logo then go into a blue screen for about 5 minutes before loading to the OS.  Nothing I did fixed the issue.  I was told it was not a hdd or ram issue, but maybe a logic board issue.  I then purchased a new hdd since that was the concensus online.  After installing it I got the it to load right away when it booted from the install disc.  However, after the OS was installed, it gave me the same problem.  Also, when trying to update to Lion it would freeze on the apple logo with the spinning dots.  I did not try to install Lion on the new hdd as I wanted to use the machine and it was working with minor inconviences.  I then read about resetting the system by taking off battery, holding power for ten seconds, then replacing battery and restarting.  This actually fixed the problem.  I was able to install Lion and everything was working perfectly.  I then replaced the topcase becuase the one on the computer was scratched and dirty.  After I did that I was unable to load anything.  It would not go into lion or anything else.  I fiddled with the command lines and nothing.  I had someone else who spoke unix fiddle with it and I was finally able to get it to boot from the install disc.  After doing a clean install, from erasing and creating a new partition, I am back to square one with a long boot time and not waking from sleep.  This time the battery trick is not working.  I have done the PRAM reset and disc repair and permission repair.  All to no avail.  I know that it has the capacity to work because it did.  Please help me, I really want this to work.  Thanks.

    It seems thst the MBP is not recognizing the internal HDD.  Look at this link and probably the section 'Start from your Mac OS X Install disc; use Disk Utility' will be applicable:

  • Blue screen en freeze PC after switching motherboard MS 7235 to MS 7592

    Hi,
    Thanks for the other information, thats O.K.. But now I have changed the old MS 7592 with a MS 7592. I have installed XP-Pro again, etc..
    Everithing was looking fine, but now I have some times a "Bluescreen" or a "Frozen Display". The most of the time it happens when I do a test with "OCCT" or "Comodo Cleaning Essentials"!
    Is it possible that I must update my BIOS?
    Tehnical:
    Board: MSI G41M-P28
    Bios:    AMI V26.8  08/26/2011

    Did you try starting with just one mem stick? If not do so.
    Also check temps with >Core Temp< while running OCCT.

  • Firefox freezes up when my iMac goes to sleep, & I must restart it everytime. Is there a solution?

    it just locks up. I'll leave then come back to a webpage and Firefox will be frozen. I have a new iMac, but it was the same way on my old iMac. Seems like there is an issue on how the browser interfaces with my apple computer. any solutions, so I don't have to switch to Safari?

    That's your answer then.  Return the keyboard, get your $$$ back & purchase another keyboard that is compatible w/your currently installed OS.
    Always read the system requirements prior to making any purchases pertaining to a Mac & your currently installed OS.

  • Apple's "Solution" for Blue-Screen Crashing Problem

    Good Morning,
    For those of you thinking of calling Apple's Technical Support for help about the Blue-Screen crashing issue, don't bother.
    I just got off the phone with Tech Support about the blue-screen crashing issue. After waiting 15 minutes for help, the first thing they did was act as if I were the first person to report this problem. The tech support guy finally admitted that Apple has received thousands of calls on this matter in the past couple of days.
    When I asked for a solution, the only thing the tech support guy offered was to have me disconnect all my external devices, then restart Windows and disable various services, the restart my computer, then reconnect my external devices, then reconnect the iPod, then restart the computer again...Absolutely ridiculous.
    I did all these steps, and I got the iPod to work once. But when I restarted my computer again, the problem returned.
    So, after a lot of wasted time, I'm back to where I started.
    I'm getting rather angry about this.
    Apple needs to fix this problem -- TODAY
    How could Apple release a new version of iTunes with this problem?
    If you call Tech Support and they try to tell you they have not heard of this problem before, just give them this list of links to discussions concerning the crashing issue:

  • 3 Dead Pixels after Blue Screen crash, should I make another Genius Bar appointment?

    Ok, so yesterday I made a GB appointment, after a friend told me to, when I showed him that I had a dead pixel on my phone's screen. So when I got to apple, I showed them the dead pixel and they told me they were going to replace the screen on the phone. It turned out that the machine they use to do so, was down, so they ended up giving me a replacement phone. So I checked it out at the store and it looked fine. So now today, while running some errands, my new replacement iPhone had crashed and turned blue, then rebooted on me &amp; a few moments after when I got back on the phone and was imessaging, I noticed 3 dead pixels instantly (one on right under the names of the contact on the message, on the J key on the board and to the middle-right where your send messages are displayed)
    Now I'm thinking that, because my originally iPhone had crashed and turned blue also and I noticed the one dead pixel on it that same day, that the blue screen crashing could possibly be causing this??
    Should I go back to the apple store and tell them what happened?

    (Update) the pixels actually all seem to be red, whenever I go on a yellow screen and I just noticed a fourth one.    I think I should take my phone in

  • CS4 Blue Screen Crash on opening

    The program opens normally and after 3-5 seconds I get a blue screen crash. Just before the crash, photoshop displays a message about a problem with the display driver and GPU.  I am unable to read the entire message before the system crashes.  I re-installed the video driver and CS4 but the problem persists.
    This is a recent phenomena (two days ago). The program operated normally with the current OS/software/hardware configuration for over a year.
    Windows 7, SP1 (64-bit)
    Intel Core2 Q9550 @ 2.83gzh, 8gb RAM
    NVIDIA GeForce GTX 550 Ti video card (updated driver)

    A blue screen means that you have defective hardware, or a low level driver bug.
    Applications cannot cause a bluescreen by themselves.
    This could be caused by the driver, or it could be that your GPU is going bad.
    Did you update the driver from NVidia's website?

  • X131e - frequent blue screen crashes

    Every few days, my wireless device disconnects or camera freezes (while im skyping) and the laptop goes to a blue screen crash. Once restarted the laptop works fine again but it is really annoying to have a laptop going into a blue screen crash every few days. Any advice? Anybody else experience this?

  • Blue Screen Crash with CS3

    Seems to me I've been through this in the past but don't recall the solution.
    After a harddrive failure on my laptop I installed CS3 on my newly installed harddrive.
    I then tried to open Premiere, it crashed with a Windows blue screen error message.
    Then, I installed the latest CS3 patch and opened Premiere. While the files
    were being cached(or whatever it's called) Premiere crashed again, same blue screen.
    The blue screen went by pretty quickly, something about must shut down to prevent harm to computer.
    Windows XP, intel duo core processor 2.0 GHz, 2GB RAM..same specs ran on with my old harddrive.

    Thanks, Harm. It will help in giving the shop some kind of direction because they miss things even though it is their actual job to know these things.
    I've felt that it was running hot, they had mentioned re-appling thermal paste to the processor a couple days ago but didn't stress it.
    There are 2 different blue screen issues and one is solved:
    1. The original irreparable crash which prompted me getting a new HD.
    2. The blue screen crash... on the NEW harddrive.... whenever I tried to open Premiere.(which apparently was solved when they re-installed
    Windows a 2nd time on my brand new HD because my computer no longer Blue screen crashes when Premiere loads.
    Addressing the heat issue could prevent future BSOD crashes and may have prevented the original crash.
    Also, does BSOD refer to the irreparable crashes which render your HD useless or ANY crash where a blue screen appears?   I have been using BSOD to refer to a complete/total/final HD crash.
    I don't smoke but these series of mishaps may get me started.

  • Every time I have tried to install firefox 6.0, it has blue screen crashed my system - can you help?

    I am using an old computer but it has dual processors and 4 gb of ram. I am using Windows XP home edition, sp2 atm. I have a Galaxy 200 vid card, sound-blaster X-Fi, Gigabyte mother board. Atm, all I have is IE 6.
    After the blue screen crash, I had trouble rebooting my computer. When I was able to reboot, the firefox 6.0 would not run and I could not uninstall it. I did a restore system and was finally able to uninstall it - at the time I still had the 5.0 installer on my desktop so I installed it- I don't have it now.
    I tried the firefox 6.0 before I had gotten all the updates for sp3- as I have had trouble getting the last windows updates to install.
    I am not a techie - what I have done is trial and error to try to get my software to work. I would either like to get a working version of firefox 6.0 or a safe download of firefox 4.0 as that worked and I had no problems with it.
    Can you assist?

    Can you attach a screenshot or link to the instructions you are following?
    You are on the 3.6 release and Firefox 7.0.1 is out. You can download and install the latest release from http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/new/ if you would like to update now. The 3.6 version will be maintained for a while longer, but you should update when you can.

    Hey Ishland,
    You are not alone. I'm getting the same thing I'm running Vista. I'm reading that Windows 8, 8.1 preview, Vista and XP.
    I'm thinking this has to be a Apple update to iTunes 11.0.4.4 fix.
    Cheers,

  • Total Blue Screen Crash

    Just had a really nasty crash, almost like a kernel panic except that there was no panic message.
    Had been running without a restart since installing 10.5.6. Woke up the computer from sleep and plugged in my iPhone 3g (running 2.2). It had apparently synched and was simply charging at the time of the crash (but see below).
    Several other applications had been running since the day before, including Entourage, Excel, and Word (all 2004, last updated a few months ago; there is a new 11.5.0 update I have not installed). Had checked mail a few minutes before with Entourage and it was hidden. Word was visible on my external monitor (which has the menu bar), and I was actively using Excel on the Macbook screen, editing a formula in a newly-added column. A few keystrokes back Excel had lost keyboard focus (as happens every five minutes or so, apparently a known problem for Rosetta) but as usual clicking on the desktop and then in Excel brought it back.
    Between two keystrokes, total crash. Both screens went pale blue with no messages of any kind, and a few seconds later I found myself at the startup login screen with the generic space background. Login completion seemed much faster than after a full restart, so probably some things were either still running or in a state that let them be used without reloading. But all applications were gone; I checked with Activity Monitor and nothing was running except system tasks and my login startup items. When I restarted Excel it loaded a recovery file that was nearly current; I lost only a few minutes of work.
    The console log makes it look as if the trigger may have been a failed iPhone synch operation of some kind. Just after it was logged (with a crash report sent automatically) there are a whole series of termination messages (WindowServer event port death, and a whole series of Exited: Terminated events for various applications.)
    Is this a known crash? If not, what's the best way to report it? It could be helpful to the OS team to have my logs. It may be relevant that Paragon NTFS was running (though not in active use), and posted some error messages to the console log during the crash and restart.

    This is an old thread, but I'm replying in case anyone can shed more light on the subject -- or if my experience helps.
    I've had the same blue screen crash a couple of times with my new MacBook Pro (which replaced a MacBook Pro with an apparent hardware problem about a week ago). Though I had problems with the first machine, I never had the blue screen issue with it (and it had a virtually sound-free trackpad click, which is sadly not the case on the replacement machine). But those are stories for another day.
    Anyway, I also have Excel 2004 installed on my machine (I also have Excel 2008 installed). But neither app was open during the last blue screen crash, a few moments ago. I only had a few applications open at the time: Mail, Microsoft Entourage 2008, Firefox, TextEdit and possibly Microsoft Word 2004.
    I was composing an email in Entourage when the computer screen simply became blue. A few seconds later I was returned to my desktop. All of my applications had closed, and when I reopened Entourage, I found a recovered version of the email I'd been composing, with just a sentence of recent typing unsaved.
    This has happened at least one other time on this machine -- again, just a blue screen that functioned like a very quick restart, with no accompanying kernel panic or error message. This machine also was giving me kernel panics the first few days I was working with it, but something -- a Firefox reinstall, a few trashed prefs and library files -- seems to have resolved that.
