G5 "System Failure" freeze - HELP!

Three or four times in the last day or two, my G5 has been displaying a very strange 'freeze' whereby the following happens:
1. Everything on monitor freezes - cursor, keyboard, entire screen even the clock (usually keeps on ticking) Not in any particular program or movement.
2. Unable to Force-Quit. Must shut down manually from CPU's Power button
3. If I don't power down, the jet engine sound from the cpu starts revving up within 10 min. (no hi temp noted, dust has been cleaned out)
4. New today, I was able to get about an hour's work in before the freeze. THIS time, for the first time, the following message appeared upper left-hand corner if screen: (I hope that I 'got' which were zeros and which were capitol Os)
System Failure: cpu=0; code=00000009 (Invalid pmap)
Latest crash info for cpu=0:
Exception state (sv=0x494bc500)
PC=0x000AFDO; MSR=0x02003000; DAR=0x2F949A18; DSISR=0x0A000000; LR=0x000A7F4C; R1-0xFCO88891; XCP=0x00000098 (System Failure)
Backtrace: ?? (can't tell if this line was obscured or not)
Backtrace terminated – unaligned frame address 0x0FCO88891
Any advice, feedback or direction to take is greatly appreciated.
Standing by (really),

Hi Catherine,
Hmmm the pmap is the Physical Map of all the HW, Caches, Virtual Memory, etc, so it could be CPU, RAM, Hard Drive, just about anything.
Boot off your original G5 Install Disk while holding down Option/alt key to select AHT, then run the extended Apple Hardware Test.
The Memory test can really only be trusted if it finds a problem, not if it doesn't find a problem.

System Failure - please help

I had the black screen with System Failure at the top.
System Failure cpu=0 code 00000001 (corrupt stack)
It also said Memory access exception (1,0,0).
Can this have anything to do with my internet service. I have been having trouble with my Mac ever since my cable company switched to roadrunner.
The system failure occured when my mac tried to open java.
Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

Could be that's a kernel panic. Does the same screen reappear after you
press and hold the power button down for several seconds to power it off,
and then press it after awhile to restart?
If it is a kernel panic, you could try troubleshooting to find out. It takes
time and procedures outline a path to test the possibility here:

I'm wondering if some questionable RAM in the user accessed slot is part
of this issue, because it has been known to happen. There may be other
hardware causes of this kind of symptom; including logic board failure.
You can see if your computer can startup from the included Apple Hardware
Test disc (should be a CD or maybe on the bootable DVD if your system came
with all the OSX system stuff on DVDs) to see if error messages
show. Not sure if any startup keyboard combos could help this;
maybe there's a reset that could purge corrupt data.
Hopefully it's something simple, like carefully removing the user-access
RAM and seeing if it runs normally. Check out the kernel panic info.

Can Anyone Help With........System failure: CPU=0:Code=

Trying to help a friend diagnose an issue with her I-Mac. It's running along fine then all of a sudden it freezes and a black window comes up with white type which reads System Failure:CPU=0:code=00000007(unaligned stack) Latest crash info for CPU0: (then about 9 lines of descriptive code which I have if it helps)
Sounds like a processor error to me, but don't know. If anyone can help it owuld be sincerely appreciated.
thanks,

Hi there & welcome to Apple Discussions...!
I'm wondering if the processor is over-heating? Is that a G4 iMac?
The model and configuration would determine several factors.
If possible, a sensor software may be able to tell if the computer
is over-heating; but if it is too old a model, there would be little
if any information from the processor. Some don't have a sensor.
If the computer has been worked on, and the upper section opened
beyond the place where the second RAM and wi-fi card hides, it
may be possible the thermo-paste and thermo-couple may need
to be looked into; since this is important. If the factory RAM slot
has seen an upgrade, or if the clock battery replaced, or maybe
if the hard disk drive was upgraded; these require the upper part
of the iMac G4 to be opened. And it is a tedious process...
And if that is an iMac G5 or maybe a newer Intel® powered iMac
the question of overheating or other hardware issue may remain.
Good luck & happy computing!

Updated from Leopard to Snow Leopard, then upgraded to Lion, now my system is freezing on startup. Can anyone help?

Updated from Leopard to Snow Leopard, then upgraded to Lion, now my system is freezing on startup. Can anyone help?

Try a Safe Boot: Restart holding down the shift key until you (hopefully) see a grey progress bar. Once booted restart as normal from the Apple menu. Any change?
How much RAM do you have installed?

I have followed instructions on HP site for general "ink system failure". I have cleaned printer head and disconnected power and commnunication cables. I have cleaned heads twice and disconnected the cables at least three times. Disconnection has been for a minimum of 60 seconds and as long as several hours.

HP site does not list this code. HELP!

Help! System keeps freezing

I have recently bought the new imac 21.5" running Snow Le opard(last month infact) and transferred my data from my previous imac running Snow Leopard using set-up assistant. After a couple of weeks my system froze and the only way to get out was to power down with the power button. After re-starting I was getting the file sign with the question mark, showing that the computer couldn't find my hard drive. After re-startingfrom the Snow Leopard install disk it still couldn't find my hard drive, so I powered down again and left it til the morning and tried again starting from the boot disc - from here I saw that the hard drive was verified so I repaired the disc and permissions and restarted - everything was fine, no hard disc problems. However, this has happened now four times, the system completely freezes, I have to do a shut down and encounter the same problem each time, although after a few hours I can re-boot and get everything up and running. I thought originally it was a problem with an open application but the last time it happened (a couple of hours ago) I had nothing running, I had just turned on screen sleep. I am wondering if my time machine back-up drive may be the problem but not being computer savvy I haven't a clue. I would be very grateful for any advice given as I don't really know what to do next

I experienced a different reaction from my Mac book pro after installing wwan.
I actually connect to the internet using a Merlin data card for which this update was made but I live in Greece. What happens is my menu bar keeps quiting and coming back up every ten seconds or so ad noseum. This prevents me from doing pretty much anything since iTunes comes to foreground every time the menu bar gets going (every 10 sec). I spent all of yesterday trying to figure out a solution to no avail. I really need to unistall the wwan nightmare so if anyone from apple is reading this DO SOMETHING. I NEED TO GET BACK TO WORK!!!. And next time you come up with an update like this try to make it network independant or something.

Post gong black strips with white type. System Failure: cpu=0; etc. HELP

I happened to plug in a palm pilot dock unit to my keyboard while my machine was booting up and although it may have noting to do with it, I now have the grey screen with the system failure message. The first line ends with "Corrupt Stack" and it goes on with "unaligned frame address" etc.
I tried to boot from the Tiger install disk, but no luck and the same result. Booted and held the x key. Booted and held the c key. Nada.
Is it dead?
Steve

Weird...after closing down and rebooting with a Tiger install disk (which my drive wouldn't read), and holding down my mouse buttoms, it's back like nothing ever happened. I just cleaned up my permissions and will now look for some utilities to figure out what's up. I'm getting a new iMac in a couple of weeks, so hopefully Ole Bess will hold up until then.

"HP AIO Printer 7180 " Ink System Failure- Worth Repair ?

Hi I have the above all in one printer. it is maybe 8 years old now but an excellent,top of the line printer at that time. I have gotten an " ink system failure" warning and nothing works. I have been told that this means the printer is basically shot-to chuck it-and buy a new one. Its such a nice unit, it seems a shame to not try a repair. my local printer repair shop in Vancouver -eltek- has quoted me about $50 to check it out and up to repair from there. I've heard that this is a common problem with this unit. Question- As I am Disabled , on fixed low income, can I attempt a self repair and if so , what can I attempt? Would it be worthwhile to pay for this problem repair or should I just write it off and save $100 for the newer type, disposable printers ?   Thanks Most Kindly Brian Smith in North Vanc

Hey ,  Welcome to the HP Support Forum. I understand your Photosmart C7180 All-in-One Printer is stuck in an error state. I would like to assist you with this.   According to this article from HP, the sole troubleshooting recommendation is performing a hard reset. Beyond that, I recommend you reach out to our tech support team. You can click on the following link to initiate a case: www.hp.com/contacthp/
Once you fill out the online form to create your case you can choose from different direct contact methods. Even though your printer's out of warranty, you might be able to look into alternative servicing or replacement options with HP.   Addressing your questions about D.I.Y. repair and third-party servicing, I do have some advice that you may want to take into consideration. The printhead on your C7180 is fixed/permanent. This means you can't readily take it out and clean it or replace it like you can in other printer models. Is it possible to dismantle the entire unit and identify the source of the error status (likely the printhead) and repair it on your own? Maybe... but there are no official guides from HP that support this approach. With some research online (Google, cough, YouTube, cough ) you might be able to find tips on how to go about this, but we rarely advise this route as it can exacerbate existing issues or create new problems.   Third-party repair businesses may have their own methods for fixing these types of printer errors, but I'm doubtful that they can guarantee a positive outcome, especially with this type of error. You can end up wasting money on a fruitless repair. We don't do pre-sales tips in the Forums, otherwise I'd recommend budget-friendly printers from HP that would match and in many cases exceed the capabilities of your C1780. If you do end of deciding to pick up a new printer you can checkout new HP models here.   I hope this helps. Have a great day!

C5180 Ink System Failure hp 0xc19a0024

Hello Everybody,
Recently I moved from one city to another. After one week of that I run my HP C5180 printer. Unfortunately I have until today an error: "Ink system has failed. Refer to printer documentation. Error: 0xc19a0024. Turn power off then on again."
Of course I didn’t find any information in my documentation. Also turn off and on didn't help.
After reset this error (using Manufacturing Key Combo) I can “Print Report” but page is empty.
Full reset to the manufacturing settings don’t help. After “Tools/Clean Printhead” or “Tools/Align Printer”... ERORR 0xc19a0024 appear again.
I called to the HP support, but the printer is out support and I didn’t get answer what this error mean.
I will very gratefully if somebody explain me what the error 0xc19a0024 exactly mean. Any solutions of my problem are also very welcome.
Thank you!

Hi andy_b23,
Sorry that did not help, the 0xc19a0024 is an Ink System Failure message. If the guide did not resolve your issue, then the next best option is to please call our phone support at 800-474-6836 for your upgrade/replacement options.

Installed new RAM and now got System Failure: cpu=0 error

This is so frustrating! I installed a 1 GB RAM chip (4200) in addition to the original 512 RAM. I turned on the computer, everything started and was working. I went in to the System Profiler and it was showing RAM as ok, but it had this: (Reversed) <-- in the name. I thought it was odd, but it was at least showing up. I quit iCal and I got a screen full of code with errors - the one I kept seeing was a kernel error. There was also a message that I needed to restart. I did - then it would not come on (fan was running, no video). So I shut down, took out the RAM, put it back in and let it sit for a few hours. When I turned it back on, it started up and I was able to log in to Gmail and created a message reply. In the middle of typing, I got an error that starts out with "System Failure: cpu=0; code=000000004 (No saveareas)" There's a lot more (about 1/3 of my screen) and the last line says "Waiting for remote debugger connection." I live about an hour and a half from a Mac store, so if I have to get there, I can....but does this mean I have a bad RAM chip or just a bad computer?

Odds are that it's a bad RAM module. People report many problems even with RAM modules that supposedly meet the printed specs. This is why a vendor that will easily replace modules is helpful.
Go back to the original 512MB only and see if the computer at least works. You might also try swapping sockets. It's possible you may have exacerbated the dead RAM socket problem, or even just have lint or dust in the sockets.

Could you help me to solve this issue.
Thanks so much.

Have you checked the user that is used to connect from J2EE back to ABAP?
I had a similar problem, went into the Visual Administrator and found the incorrect password (or possibly outdated password) was being used to communicate back to ABAP, and updating that sorted out my problem.
Hope this helps.

Hi Nilesh,
Well if you have already checked whether the FM is available in CRM system, then check SM58 & SM21 for logs of the RFC call. That should have the details for failure.
Also please check if the FM is remote enabled. I dont have access to CRM system, hence cant verify.
