Logic pro x freezes after loading project

Question

Hi,
So first off I'm running Logic pro x on my Hackintosh. Basically, sometimes when i open up logic, it will go through the scanning audio units and loading of a project but when it goes to open the main window, i get the spinning wheel. A restart fixes it everytime but im not sure what causes this problem.
Things I have tried so far:
turn off screensaver
never let the computer sleep
clear AU cache
disable failed AU
reinstall logic pro
change darkwake value
disable core audio
If i change inputs on my tv (my tv is my monitor) and come back to my computer input after an extended period of time, logic freezes.
If anyone has any ideas for me please let me know. It's an inconvenience to restart the computer everytime I want to use logic but if there's a fix i'd gladly accept it. I'm 90% sure its a hackintosh problem because this never happens on my macbook pro and im using all the same plugs
Thanks in advance.

Michael,
When I have an issue with an older LP9 project loading into LPX it's usually because of an older plugin compatibility issue...or missing/moved samples/audio/Sample library files...
So I use the Selective Track Import (STI) feature in LP9/LPX to load each track in individually from the older LP9 project into a new LPX project..until I find the culprit...
Here is a brief tutorial for using it.. This one's for LP9 but it works much the same way in LPX

STI actually has many uses... and is one of the most often overlooked feature in Logic when it comes to merging projects/Re-using tracks from other projects/Project recovery and basic trouble shooting for issues such as the one you are having
