PC random lock up/crash PROBLEM SOLVED

At first, my system specs
A64 3000+ boxed
1GB Kingston valueram DDR 400 + 512MB Transcend DDR 400
K8N Neo Fisr
Antec Truepower 430W
ATI Radeon 9800 Pro @ XT
SB Live! 5.1
Maxtor diamondmax 9+ 120gb + some old 40gb ibm deskstar
Plextor PX712A
Win XP
I bought and installed K8N Neo Fisr but now I encounter some real problems.
I've tried to play two games: Pro evolution soccer 4 and GTA san andreas. Both worked fine yesterday
with my old mobo.
PES4 locks up on loading screen (at random point), on the menu or in the
actual game. The computer might also crash/reboot after playing a few seconds.
GTA locks up/reboots my computer on the main menu. Sometimes after GTA crash, Windows doesn't load.
It just locks up after the blue loading bar has disappeared. If I go to safe mode or keep the comp shut down for a while,
it will usually load windows again.
Things I've tried without any help:
-Using different IDE and power cables
-Installing memories to different slots
-Using both memories independently
-Using maxtor hd alone as a primary master (has windows installed)
-removing Nvidia ide drivers and using windows standard drivers instead
-installing different graphic drivers
-updating bios
-checking temperatures (around 35-50 with load)
-reinstalling windows
Dxdiag video and audio test run without problems. Everything worked just fine yesterday with the old mobo.
Any ideas?
EDIT: "reinstalling windows"
EDIT: SOLVED, Mobo failure. Tried a different copy -> no problems

The OS should be installed on the MB,guarantee it. Do not remove the HDD with OS from your old MB.
Change other memory to verify. Verify different VGA drivers. Use Liveupdate to update MB's drivers to the latest version.
Have done that, don't help. I formatted my HD and installed windows again for this MB.
What I noticed is that when I had my comp turned off for a few hours and started to play PES4 immediately after turning the power on, I was able to play it for like 5 minutes. Usually I can hardly get to the menus before it locks up. Sometimes I can play but it locks up after like 5-10 seconds. When it lock ups, the screen turns blue.

Instant crash problem solved - here's how

I've just had two weeks of iphoto 6.0.2 crashing instantly every time I opened it and have faithfully followed all the advice on this forum to no avail.
It's now working again and this is what I did. You will lose your albums but keep your photos & rolls.
First make an archive of your iphoto library or take another form of backup.
Then move iphoto library out of pictures folder where iphoto.app can't see it.
Open iphoto - if you take the choose library option and point it at the new location then it will just crash again (in my experience). Move it again if you did try this. Open iphoto once more and choose create library.
You should now have a non-crashing new (but emtpy) library. Choose "import to library" from file menu and point it to the "originals" folder in wherever you have put the library.
iPhoto will now import all your pictures in rolls with all the roll names intact.
When I did it, it identified a corrupted file that it could not import - that might have been causing the original crashing - who knows?
When import finishes you will have all your pictures and all your rolls but none of your albums. I have tried creating a smart album and it seems OK with this without crashing.
I've also run the rebuild options and it's holding up so far.
Worked for me - I'm curious whether anyone else can come up with a solution that preserves the albums.
PS - chuck the old photo library away after import or back it up somewhere but don't put it back into the pictures file.

I have not yet tested it, but oh man will I be happy if it works. I can only assume that others reports of Smart Albums causing the problem has some validity, as I use them religiously. I keyword every single picture I bring in and create Smart Albums of all kinds.
Now here is the question assuming this does work...What about Smart Albums?
Do they need to be abandoned all together. Is it a temporary thing that will hopefully someday get resolved. I do not want to crash like this again. This has already happened once before and I went back to an iPhoto 5 Library and went through the task of re-keywording well over 3000 pictures. I eventually gave in again and gave iPhoto 6 another try. This time it worked for well over 2 months and I thought one of the updates must have addressed the issue. This last crash proved me wrong and I was left wondering...***!?!
So, if anyone finds out anything more concrete about Smart Albums and how they effect iPhoto 6 stability I hope they will reply here. Or maybe Apple will get wise to this very serious issue and get on it. It's definitely a big enough problem!
Thanks to those who take the time to research and SHARE their solutions on here.

Random & repeated waking issues - PROBLEM SOLVED

my macbook would randomly awaken, sometimes in rapid succession, even with the lid closed. The cause was a wireless logitech mouse. I did a clean reinstall and got a mighty mouse and the problem has not recurred. I also read about other issues with logitech mice and macs, including non-waking without restarting, on another web forum.
hopefully, some of the many posters with similiar problems will find this info useful.

Ah probably should have mentioned what I was running perhaps? Totaly forgot:

Encore V2 crashes - problem solved!

Time to praise Adobe to the hilt...
Encore V2 loaded succesfully, then always crashed when making a link or
typing from keyboard.
3 days - yes 3 days Adobe technical help tried to sort it out - really
helpful and polite - answer came on day 3 - Welsh!
Yes - if your machine has been set to Welsh keyboard Encore 2 will crash!
For my sins I have a new sooper duper Dell - they speak double dutch but I
think there might be a Welsh Nationalist somewhere sabotaging their
goodwill! (only joking).
Oh and Encore DVD2 is really worth the upgrade - great! In fact Adobe get
double kudos for sending free upgrade to Audition 2 'cos I'd upgraded to
Audition 1.5 only a month ago!
All this praise for Adobe is making me weak....

Crashing Problem Solved So Far

I downloaded the new upgrade 10.4.3 and ran programs that always had crashed in Tiger. I am delighted to report that none of them now crash. I partitioned my newest G4 to include both Tiger and Panther. If I was presenting a lecture out of school with time restraints I still would be most comfortable booting and presenting the material in Panther but this is a major improvement in my world..

I tried to do that but when I went to my Internet Options and looked for a proxy under my LAN settings, it was "unchecked", I guess that this means that it automatically detects the proxy, which is what I see from time to time when loading internet explorer...You are right that Java's default setting is to go based off the browser's setting. Since the browser's setting is assumed to be automatic, I don't know what I need to do in regards to reconfiguring the plug-in, since I don't actually "know" what the proxy address and port are.
I have never messed with any of the options under "LAN Settings" in regards to the proxy or with the Java proxy settings, and what I don't get is why all of a sudden it won't work...something doesn't add up....Thank you for the help, and I hope I can get to the bottom of this soon....

Browser won'topen crashes- problem solved

My browser would not open. It would start to open then crash after about two seconds.
I fixed it!
Back up data first!
Solution:
Just got to the gear and pull up the menu.
go to security
touch on security swipe in the menu
type in "blackberry" and it will load the original software
then you will need to download the latest software

I was about to the above and had even gotten to the point of having completed the full backup, when suddenly I tripped over what the real cause was.
Prior to doing the backup, I had checked if there were any software updates. There were none. But after I did the backup, suddenly there was an update available but when I clicked to do it, it said I did not have enough room to do it and had to free up some memory on my 16MG PB. I removed some stupid videos my 9 year old had added in the past couple of days, and BEFORE I went back to do the download tried to open the browser one last time. Now it finally was opening.
So if you have internet connectivity it seems, and your browser button is not greyed but simply won't open, try to simply make room on your PB if you are running what may be near capacity. I can't recall what my numbers in the "About" "Hardware" screen were prior to deleting data, but now after removing about a dozen photos, and deleting about 4-5 minutes of video only, it now reads
Total Storage: 14.6 GB
Free Storage: 104.6 MB
Free Memory: 306.3 MB
I'm gonna delete some more stuff now in my music stored. Certainly do not need all five versions I have of "I Can't Get no Satisfaction". lol.
EDIT: I should also mention that the other symptom I was getting is that I could no longer bridge my emails and other bridged applications either. I could open my Globe and Mail add-on program as well as check out The Score add-on, so along with checking whether wifi was connected, it was working. It was simply choking on opening what was becoming programs that were too big for the size of memory available, but would not give any kind of error message. The Browser would just simply try to open, and close 2 seconds later without rendering anything other than a black screen and the little arrow in the upper left corner sometimes coming on before going kaputz. The bridging would simply freeze on a white screen forever of nothing until I would minimize it and X it away.
And as a side note to the reply from Tex Tucker, you can't do what you recommend if you can't get into your browser in the first place,
That would do it, however the first thing to try is
1. Browser settings, Privacy and Security, Clear ALL
2. Restart the Playbook.
IF that does not fix it then do the security wipe

How to solve crash problem of firefox?

Hi Jamalzoal,
Dose your computer have the most recent iTunes on it? When you connect the iPad 2 to your computer what happens? dose iTunes tell you the iPad need to be restored?
p.s. you post this question in the Apple Remote Desktop community. You would probable have gotten more an fast responses if you posted this in the iPad community.

The screen could not rotate automatically while without lock it, how to solve this problem?

The screen could not rotate automatically while without lock it, how to solve this problem?

If there isn't a lock symbol at the top of the screen next to the battery indicator then try a soft-reset and see if it rotates after the iPad has restarted : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

Windows 7 randomly locks up on T60

I have had this T60 for over a year. It came with a clean install with Windows 7 Professional. Over the last 3 weeks it has started locking up randomly.
Powering off/on seems the only way to bring it back.
I've been getting the family to tell we when it happens and what they were doing at the time. No patterns. It happens when they're browsing or using MS Outlook or playing games. At its worst one might only get a few minutes before it happens.
Mr. Google offered some solutions:
update BIOS
scan for adware, malware, and viruses
make sure all devices in device manager
run a registry cleaner utility
run ThinkPad system update
check if graphics drivers up to date
Run Microsoft memory diagnostics test.
Updating the BIOS seemed to solve things for 2-3 days and then the lock ups came back.
So did running ThinkPad System update, but eventually they came back after a day or two.
There were no ATI graphics drivers for the T60 and Windows 7
Currently the machine is locking up about twice a day and it is being used intermittently for about 2 hours each day.
I'd do a clean install but I don't have the Win 7 discs and there is no recovery partition as this is not the original HDD.
Any help greatly appreciated.

Thanks for the heads up Fredie5, great little program!
My older Toshiba laptop started to lock and freeze for no apparent reason. Windows logs and events showed no indication of the problem and the lock/freeze occurred at random times with no pattern. I ran across your posting and decided to give Registry Recycler a try. Bingo, problem solved! My best guess is that a few weeks earlier I had been trying out different drivers as well as a couple of software applications. Remnants left behind by their uninstall was most likely the culprit.

Touch persistently crashing - problems with USB/iTunes/Windows 7?

Hi!
I received a 64gb Touch for Christmas and have a persistent crashing problem. The Touch appears to be randomly crashing across any app or even just playing music - there seems to be no common link. This could be once in a few hours or repeatedly 4/5 times in succession.
It's possible I have a faulty unit but wonder also if I may have an issue with updating/syncing as any sync that takes a reasonable amount of time disconnects and reconnects several times. I had this on my 1st gen Shuffle also - it's almost as though something is disconnecting the USB port and then reconnecting it. I'll mention at this point that I have no other USB related issues - I can run a backup of several hours to a USB harddisk and have no issues and no other USB device has had any sort of problem. If there is a USB issue, it's only happening with iTunes and my iPod(s).
My theory then is that the initial upgrade of the Touch to 3.1.2 on first sync is being corrupted in some way because of the disconnecting issue and that then is causing the crashing as the os is unstable. The Touch has been reinstalled 3 times since purchase and each time having the disconnection issue appear and the resulting persistent crashing.
Hopefully someone can tell me I'm wrong/right in my theory and maybe suggest a way I can fix the disconnection problem so I can at least try a clean reinstall of the Touch and see if that solves the crashing problem before I send the unit back.
Cheers!

I bought my iPod Touch 32gb last week and as soon as I plugged it in iTunes told me to update to v3.1.2 (came with v3.1.1 installed.) I accepted to install v3.1.2 and it finished installing then restarted. It flashed up in iTunes then disconnected and the ipod went blank, then came up with the apple log for about 1 or 2 minutes, then flashed up again in itunes. It then kept restarting and dissapearing. I left it doing this for about 15 minutes then unplugged the usb lead. It then restarted and all seemed fine.
I had put a couple of albums on. Then I sorted out some more music and done another sync & the **** thing got stuck in the restart loop again.
This was on my laptop which has Windows vista.
I then thought maybe the update to v3.1.2 had gone wrong so i reinstalled it on my main pc. It didn't get stuck in the restarting loop so I thought I had solved the problem. I put my music on my main pc (Windows 7) and done a resync and the blasted thing got stuck in restart loop again.
My son bought his 8GB touch this week and his came with v3.1.2 allready installed and he hasn't had a single problem with it. I hadn't downloaded any apps for mine but he has loads of them and it hasn't crashed once.
I am taking mine back to the shop tomorrow as i have had it less than 10 days.
Am not sure what it is but it is very annoying. I hope the replacement i get works properly.

P6N-SLI-FI Random Lock-ups

Hi,
New build listed below. Works great 99% of the time. The only issue I have is infrequent random lock-ups. The lock-ups occur either during windows start-up, or randomly while doing some non-stressing task (like web browsing or word processing). Currently at 2.4GHz, but have had it higher. I lowered it to 2.4 to see if it made any difference, but it seems about the same.
Since "lock-up" can mean a lot of different things I will describe it. The screen freezes totally. Does not respond to any input (CTR-ALT-DEL) etc. It often seems to occur in the middle of HDD access, and the HDD light stays on continuously. Hard reset is required to fix.
It has not locked up during a game, burning or transcoding a DVD or when running any stress tests. It happens VERY INFREQUENTLY (I just had my first one in about a week) and is not repeatable. The only other bit of info I can come up with is that is seems that it usually occurs during HDD access, and the HDD light is stuck on.
I almost wish I had the problem more often. If I had this problem regularly I would feel pretty comfortable troubleshooting, but as it is I could spend a lot of time changing things around and "think" I fixed it only to have it come back a week later.
My thoughts are either a RAM issue or my PSU. Thoughts?

Do you have all the necessary options for overclocking disabled, C1E, EIST, all the spread spectrums. Also what are your cpu voltage and NB voltage set at...those two seem to have the most effect on system stability when ocing. Also what are your memory settings... I have your same memory and it refuses to work at anything but its advertised setting (800mhz at 4-4-4-15)

Mail 6.1 locks up, other problem

After updating to 10.8.2, my Mail application locks up after clicking on the reply arrow within an existing email in a thread. It happened twice, I used Force Quit and reopened, then repaired permissions in Disk Utility, tried again, it locked up again, simply quit the application and restarted. But it keeps locking up.
While I can move the cursor around and switch to another application, I cannot access anything in the existing email thread window. However, I can look at other emails from the main window. Very weird.
To be even more descriptive, I can open an individual email and respond to that. But when I try to respond to an email that is in the right sidebar as part of a thread, that's where it locks up. Problem is repeatable every time I try it.
I have a 21.5 inch iMac, mid-2010 with 4 GB memory, 3.6 Ghz Core i5. No plugins or software that interacts with Mail. Never had a real software problem after upgrades (yep, lucky!), Mac user since 1986. Have not contacted Applecare since I can work around this problem for a while, and don't want to load up the system during what could be a heavy period for support.
Steve
p.s. -- while minor, I have another problem with jpeg attachments. There is an option to add photos to iPhoto from a Mail message, but it no longer works after upgrading to 10.8.2. I have to download all photos into the Downloads folder, open iPhoto and drag files into that application. I regularly use the short cut directly from Mail, and noticed this right away. I have iPhoto 9.4.

Are you using multiple accounts? If so then I may have the solution.
My accounts were set up within mail preferences on 10.8.1. When I upgraded to 10.8.2 Mail froze, nothing I did would unfreeze it. So after I return my new MacBook and got a new one the same thing happened again!
Here is what I did this time:
1)     Create a new user profile
2)     Put in your main iCloud log in
3)     Do not add your other iCloud adresses using Mail instead go to System Preferences and Mail, Contacts, Calendars and add them there
Please note this will not work on your existing log in as when you go to System Preferences your old email accounts will cause it to crash as well as mail.
What might have been easier is if Apple had got mail to come up with a message like 'iCloud accounts should be added through system preferences' instead of crashing every time. Of course it does make you wonder why mail even has a preferences with an option to add accounts?!
Hope this helps.

Computer randomly locks up when firewire drives are connected?

Here's what I have:
- 2011 27" iMac i7
- 2011 15" MacBook Pro i7
I recently replaced all of my USB hard drives with Firewire drives, mostly as a speed and simplification measure. Under USB, I had to have a series of hubs which seemed to slow things down pretty dramatically, as well as cause a lot of weird behavior, like randomly ejecting. And, of course, there was the inevitable birds nest of wires. So, since there was no way to add USB ports to the iMac, except for hubs, I decided to move FireWire and daisy chain them.
This was all connected to a dedicated iMac workstation, the MacBook was never connected to the drives.
The drives were added a few days before a complete system overhaul was done. The system had been acting funny. We're little things here and there (finder often had to be relaunched after a restart, wifi was not able to automatically connect, etc.), and the system was starting to lock up on a somewhat regular basis. So, Lion was installed fresh and nothing was restored from Time Machine except for a few applications here and there (nothing system related). Once the system was all freshly installed, the little quirks were gone, but the random locking up was not. And it was getting worse.
So, I did some of the trouble shooting I had done in the past; created a new user, repaired permissions, repaired the disk, etc. It wasn't fixing anything, just getting worse. I finally did an extended Apple Hardware Test and got the error: 4M0T/4/40000003: HDD-1285
I couldn't find anything on the web about it. So I called AppleCare, they didn't know what it was either. So I took the computer into the Apple Store. They eventually got back to me saying the hard drive and the fan had failed and that they were in the process of fixing it.
However, in the mean time, I moved the MacBook Pro over to the workstation where the iMac had been. Low and behold, within a few hours, I was seeing exactly the same symptoms I'd seen on the iMac. If the Firewire drives were plugged in, the computer would randomly lock up, and again, not even necessarily when the drives were reading or writing. It appears to be completely random. Sometimes specific applications will lock up, like Mail, VLC or System Preferences. Force quitting the application has no effect. The window won't disappear, even if I attempt to log out or shut the computer down. The screen will change to the grey background, but the window will never go away. It'll just sit there with the pin wheel forever. The only option at this point is to force the system to shut down with the power button.
This only happens when Firewire is connected.
I've tried swapping out the cable with no luck, the same problem is true. I have five drives daisy chained like this:
WD MyBook 2TB --> WD MyBook 2TB --> WD MyBook 2TB --> LaCie d2 Quadra v3 2TB --> LaCie d2 Quadra v3 2TB
Now, admittedly, I have never daisy chained, so I don't know if I've made some bad mojo for myself by my device order, or by mixing brands or something, or if it's even possible that maybe one of the drives is faulty and it's screwing things up for me. I just don't know, and troubleshooting is challenging becuase I can't make the problem happen, it just happenes whenever it feels like it.
I have to get this issue resolved. I could switch back to USB, but I'd hate to do that because I spent a substantial amount of money on the drives specifically to avoid using USB
Insight into this would really be appreciated.

I am having the exact same problem. Th eone difference is that on occasion, iTunes downloads my playlists yet not the associated songs in the playlist.

here is a crash report -

Removing the old preference file was the first thing I tried with no luck.
I just fixed the problem by removing the 'application support/logic' folder. Logic behaved normally.
You mean the one in your user library? So you the culprit was one of your custom presets (that you have now lost)?
The strange thing is that I then dragged the old folder contents back into the newly created logic folder
Are you talking a project folder or the user appsupport folder?
and overwrote all the files so that the content was EXACTLY the same as before. Logic still works fine - bizarre...
Well, if deleting your user application support folder solved the problem, the 'faulty' file was in there. Too bad you now cannot narrow it down further by deleting perhaps subfolders or even individual files from that folder until it was resolved; that way you would have had one or a few specific files that were the cause. Now you won't know until it happens again and try it like this, I guess.
But, if it works it works.

Crash Problems

I have been having crash problems on a regular basis since upgrading to Yosemite. It seems that if a site (URL) has not fully loaded, or if I am just opening Safari, and I try to move quickly to another site, the thing crashes. This has been persistent, and is very annoying. Every time it happens I send in the crash report, but nothing seems to be getting corrected. You need to work on this. I am really close to moving to FireFox.

Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
Step 1
For this step, the title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
          SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
          View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar at the top of the screen.
In the top right corner of the Console window, there's a search box labeled Filter. Initially the words "String Matching" are shown in that box. Enter the name of the crashed application or process. For example, if Safari crashed, you would enter "Safari" (without the quotes.)
Each message in the log begins with the date and time when it was entered. Select the messages from the time of the last crash, if any. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.
☞ The log contains a vast amount of information, almost all of which is irrelevant to solving any particular problem. When posting a log extract, be selective. A few dozen lines are almost always more than enough.
Please don't indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Please don't post screenshots of log messages—post the text.
☞ Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
Step 2
In the Console window, select
          DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION ▹ User Diagnostic Reports
(not Diagnostic and Usage Messages) from the log list on the left. There is a disclosure triangle to the left of the list item. If the triangle is pointing to the right, click it so that it points down. You'll see a list of crash reports. The name of each report starts with the name of the process, and ends with ".crash". Select the most recent report related to the process in question. The contents of the report will appear on the right. Use copy and paste to post the entire contents—the text, not a screenshot.
I know the report is long, maybe several hundred lines. Please post all of it anyway.
If you don't see any reports listed, but you know there was a crash, you may have chosen Diagnostic and Usage Messages from the log list. Choose DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION instead.
In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.)
Please don’t post other kinds of diagnostic report—they're very long and rarely helpful.
