Weird Video problem and kernel panic!

Okay, so last ngiht I was running tech tool maintenence, and I had repair on. So, it finished scanning my startup volume (I was on my eDrive) and then I shut down and restarted. Now, it tried to start from my startup volume (tiger 4.7, with latest updates) and it says you need to restart your computer (which means there is a kernel panic, am I right?) I try safe mode to no avail, I even reset the PMU and reset the PRAM (but I didnt hear the starup noise again). So, I put in my backup HD, and it starts up, but wait! Now the video is horribly wrong! It is all in TERRIBLE quality and in mostly only greys, I mean it looks like a 4 mb vram video card, there are very few pixels of color( there are some intermitedly) and there is terrible ghosting, and I can barely read anything. so, I checked my display, and universal access settings, and fooled around with those, and nothing happened. So, now I try and start from my eDriveand it start, but now it has the same horrible color problem as my other drive. Oh boy, this is a new computer, and I already have a kernel pnic, and a video problem, what can I do? Thanks for any help. Matthew. I have a sawtooth, a radeon 9200 flashed video card, and the latest tiger.

What if you tried running mplayer with the following command :
mplayer -fs -zoom filename
As for the "too pixelish" problem well... you could try increasing the "nice" level (at least in VLC). For the other video players I don't know.

    Since it references com.apple.iokit.IOFireWireFamily, I suspect that some FW device is causing the panic. Disconnect all of them and see if that stops the problem. As for general KP stuff, start with http://www.thexlab.com/faqs/kernelpanics.html

  • Weird one shot deal kernel panic

    hi,
    weirdly, I got a kernel panic while downloading iOs 4.2 in iTunes earlier tonight. The computer log file shows what is down below. Does anyone know what the exact problem was. I shut it down and reopened it without any new kernel panic but that's weird.
    thanks in advance

  • Mac freezing and kernel panics

    Please help if anyone can. I'm not much of a computer expert.
    I apologize in advance if I'm not asking this question in the right forum or topic- I haven't ever posted before today.
    I have a PowerMac G5 dual 2 GHz processor machine running 10.4.9. Lately I have had problems with freezing and kernel panics, especially at startup or soon after startup.
    I have 1 GB RAM, 150 GB hard drive with 117 GB free space. I have no peripheral devices hooked to my computer- just an Apple USB mouse and keyboard that came with my computer.
    Panics occur at startup usually, and require a restart using the power button.
    Sometimes the system profiler shows that I have only 1 CPU.
    I've run all the Apple hardware diagnostic stuff, Disk Utility, Disk Warrior, etc, and it comes up clean- no problems. I've run fsck -fy, and I've done a full erase and reinstall, then update to 10.4.9. Problem persists.
    Sometimes I don't get the startup sound, and then everything freezes.
    Sometimes it freezes on the blue screen and shows the prohibitory sign.
    Sometimes when it freezes, the fans go wild and just keep increasing in speed until I force restart.
    Recent kernel panic log reads as follows:
    Unresolved kernel trap(cpu 0): 0x300 - Data access DAR=0x0000000070000200 PC=0x000000000003FE3C

    Based on that info, it sounds like either the optical or hard drive is beginning to go bad and perhaps the CPU on the logicboard. The fact it mentions iostorage, that typically deals with the storage devices on the computer. The fact that the CPU disappears is not good. Backup your data and try to replace the hard drive. See my FAQ* on backing up:
    http://www.macmaps.com/backup.html
    A G5 takes SATA hard drives, and won't work with the Parallel ATA drives. SATA drives take the connectors shown here:
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serial_ATA
    The drive may still be under warranty even if the computer is not. Look on the sticky label on the outside of the drive.
    * Links to my pages may give me compensation.

  • Temp and kernel panic relation?

    Is there a relationship between temperature and kernel panic?
    I've spent the day restarting the computer trying everything I've found at apple discussions and support to fix the nonstop kernel panic restart requests.
    After I Left the thing off for an hour - I gave up after my husband said my ranting caused Ga Tech to lose the Gator Bowl- I was able to get almost through the OS reinstall, which was about step number 45 in my restarts for the day.
    so is this a temp problem? Is this chance or related to the cool down? Cannot wait for tomorrow to talk to someone at apple!

    After you talk to them be sure to post back ...it may very well be related and if so indicates a hardware issue - meaning you may have to send it in for repairs.
    When you mention it's a week old then I'm assuming it's a Core2Duo and not just a refurbished orig. Macbook.

  • CrashPlan and Kernel Panics

    Ever since I updated to 10.7.4 I have been having problems with CrashPlan 3.2 and kernel panics. I use CrashPlan on a MacMini 3,1 w/ 2 GHz Core 2 Duo processor and 8 GB of memory. I have several external drives that contain a large collection of photos and home movies connected to the system. There is also a large external disk that I use as a local CrashPlan backup of other computers on my home lan. The system serves mostly as a backup and file server. There are a total of over 1 million files and over 1.3 TB of data that is backed up from this computer.
    After the 10.7.4 upgrade I started getting regular kernel panics when the system was running only CrashPlan. The crash report usually indicated that java was the active process, pointing to CrashPlan as the culprit. To verify that 10.7.4 was the culprit I did clean installs of 10.7.3 and 10.7.4 on an external disk, installed CrashPlan on each of them, and alternately booted from them. I was able to run 10.7.3 for long periods of time (days/months) without crashes while 10.7.4 resulted in a crash, usually within an hour of enabling CrashPlan but never more than a day or so. The crashes seemed to correspond to CrashPlan having high levels of activity. I verified the file systems of all the external drives. In August I finally got around to updating to ML, and by then 10.8.1 was out. I did a clean install on an external drive, installed CrashPlan, crossed my fingers, and, to my disappointement, ..., crashes continued. It may just be my imagination, but I would say if anything the crashes happened sooner.
    I had a several month running discussion with CrashPlan support, which by the way was very responsive and gave good suggestions. I tried many things including 32 bit Java instead of 64 bit. All of this was to no avail until this past week. It was suggested that I increase the limit on the memory. Instructions fro doing this are to edit /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.crashplan.engine.plist (need root permissions to do this), search for the line that contains -Xmx512m and increase 512 to something larger. It was suggested that I start with 1024, but since I have a lot of memory on the system I used 2048. Of course CrashPlan has to be stopped and restarted for this to take effect.
    Perhaps I am being premature in writing this post, but the backup has been running for over 12 hours and seems to be working fine. I noticed that the java process is using 870 MB of real and 1 GB of virtual memory. So, this could explain why CrashPlan had trouble when it was limited to 512 MB of memory. I do not know why this was not a problem under 10.7.3. I did notice under 10.7.3 that CrashPlan reported using 650 MB of real memory for the same backup set. So, for some reason it uses more under 10.8.1. It may also be that 10.7.4 and 10.8.1 have stronger memory protection, but I am not sure. I am posting this information in the hopes that it will benefit someone else having similar problems.

  • Known issues with CUDA 5.0.17 driver (including crashes and kernel panics) on Mac OSX

    We have recently learned of some issues with the new CUDA drivers from Nvidia that cause crashes and kernel panics in some circumstances, including when switching between applications that use the GPU.
    See this page for details.

    Whenever you remove system modifications, they must be removed completely, and the only way to do that is to use the uninstallation tool, if any, provided by the third-party developers, or to follow their instructions. If the software has been incompletely removed, you may have to re-download or even reinstall it in order to finish the job.
    Here are some general guidelines. Suppose you want to remove something called “BrickYourMac.” First, consult the product's Help menu, if there is one, for instructions. Finding none there, look on the developer's website, say www.brickyourmac.com. (That may not be the actual name of the site; if necessary, search the Web for the product name.) If you don’t find anything on the website or in your search, email the developer. While you're waiting for a response, download BrickYourMac.dmg and open it. There may be an application in there such as “Uninstall BrickYourMac.” If not, open “BrickYourMac.pkg” and look for an Uninstall button.
    If you can’t remove software in any other way, you’ll have to erase your boot volume and perform a clean reinstallation of OS X. Never install any third-party software unless you're sure you know how to uninstall it; otherwise you may create problems that are very hard to solve.
    Trying to remove complex system modifications by hunting for files by name often will not work and may make the problem worse. The same goes for "utilities" that purport to remove software.

  • HELP! Problem with KERNEL PANICS!

    Hi everyone!
    I have a serious problem with kernel panics - it doesn't seem to be connected with a certain type of program, but seems to be completely random. I have reinstalled my OS X and updated it, but the kernel panics just keep on coming and if possible it actually seemed to make matters worse! Now it doesn't always show the bar at the top of the screen when I turn it on, and sometimes programs like iTunes and Safari, just won't work until I restart the mac. I've also done a harware test - no faults detected. I had an idea that it might be AutoCad causing it, as it started sometime after I installed it - it was also the first program I reinstalled after OS X reinstallation - but I haven't used the AutoCad a whole lot and the panics happen way more often.
    I am completely at a loss now as I'm not exactly a computer expert. If anyone can deduce something from my most recent panic log which could help me find out what's causing all this, I would greatly appreciate it!

  • Hard Feezing and Kernel Panics - Early 11 MBP

    Hey just wondering if anyone has any insight into this...
    I've been experiencing hard freezing and kernel panics on my Early 11 Macbook Pro for several months.  The hard freezing only happens when I wake up my system from sleep.  I'll open the lid and when it happens, within seconds, everything locks up.  No spinning wheel, just frozen machine and I have to do a hard reboot.  I also get random kernel panics as well.
    I took it in the the Genius Bar a few weeks ago, they ran tests and said the hardware was all fine and that I should reinstall Lion after a clean format.  Well I did that and still having issues.  Not sure if it's being caused by a 3rd party app...or if I really do have bad hardware after all.
    When they did a diagnostic they said that 'soundflower' was showing up in my kernel panic log and that I should find what that is and delete it, so I did.  In my most recent and only kernel panic, shown below, I don't see any 3rd party language anywhere.
    Anyone have an idea of what might be causing this?

  • Known issues with CUDA 5.0.17 and 5.0.24 driver (including crashes and kernel panics) on Mac OSX

    We have recently learned of some issues with the new CUDA drivers from Nvidia that cause crashes and kernel panics in some circumstances, including when switching between applications that use the GPU.
    See this page for details.

    You are experiencing a page fault (reference to an area outside of what is owned by the software in question) in the AirPort driver, in a Mac OS X kernel that does not have obvious third-party modifications to it.
    This should not be happening. Your Mac OS X image may be Bad.
    If you do not already have a Trusted Backup, that should be your Top Priority.
    If this is a new MacBook, and it is within the first 90 days of ownership, contact telephone support and ask them to help you. They will likely suggest a re-Install, right over the Mac OS X you have in place now. This is intended to do no damage, but you should always have a Backup.

  • Video 'lace curtain' and kernel panics

    Early G5 iMac, EMC 1989 (1st gen), bought in Sydney, Australia. Model No falls in the repair extension program for video and power, but that has now finished. Started showing the grid of fine dots and vertical lines, similar to other threads in this Forum, and had several kernel panics, at about the same time. It still turns on and works, but does not redraw the screen properly when scrolling, or when moving windows, and eventually the cursor won't move. Opened it up and tested, and found :-
    . logic board capacitors 'Rubycon' with K on top, all look good, no bulging,
    . power supply capacitors also good, voltages ok,
    . diagnostic LEDs 1, 2, 3 ok.
    . panic logs say (in part), indicating a problem with the video processing? -

    . apple hardware test stopped at 27sec while checking the logic board, with error code '2GMC/2/15 :builtin'.
    Can anyone please advise whether that error is associated with the video? I'm thinking that repairing the video BGA connection is more likely to fix the problem than replacing the capacitors.
    Thank you.

    Kernel panics are a sign of hardware problems. Boot from System DVD #1 *that originally came w/your computer* and run the Hardware Test. _Read the DVD label to find out which key you need to boot up from to run the Hardware Test._

  • Problems with MacMini 2.1 restarting and kernel panic

    For the past few weeks I have been having a very frustrating problem.
    Occasionally, when my MacMini goes into sleep mode I am unable to wake it and it must be hard restarted (holding down power button).  When it restarts I get the startup chime, immediately followed by truncated echos of the chime (not beeps or tones), which can repeat every couple of seconds for up to five minutes.  This is followed by the computer restarting itself over and over again until I get a kernel panic (log attached below).  Once I restart after getting the kernel panic the computer usually starts up fine and is fully usable until the next time I can't wake it up from sleep mode.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

    Hello,
    This is EXACTLY what my MacBook Pro keeps doing. Have you figured out what the problem is? I recently to my Mac to the Apple store to address the issue, and the one thing they were able to tell me, was that the battery was bad. They couldn't say if the two were related, because I didn't have the error message at that time, but it seems like the two could be related. I would have them check your battery, it could be the reason why the computer goes to sleep and doesn't turn back on. I am able to use mine just fine, other than this problem, but was told that I need to have the battery replaced. Would love to se what you find out, or have found out, maybe it can help me solve the problem on my end as well (if not due to the battery...)
    Tahnks!

  • SERIOUS Problem with mac pro and kernel panics

    Hi guys, I have a mac pro with 6 gigabytes of RAM + a RAID 0+1 system with 4 750 gigabytes HD's. ( 2 drives work in stripped mode, and the other 2 drives mirror them )
    I was experiencing some frecuent kernel panics when using final cut or trying to watch DVD's a few weeks ago. I saved some error logs then and uploaded them to my e-mail. The problem is that now the frequency of the panics is so high that the computer has turned unusable, it reaches the desktop without panics, but when I click finalcut and it starts opening , it panics all the time, if I start to open folders, it panics, anything I try = panic.
    Weeks ago I made the Apple Hardware test, testing the memory a lot and the memory seemed to be fine,
    Could you guys help me to identify the source of this?, I am desperate because the MacPro is my Working tool. Is there a way to check the hard drives also? ( remember I have raid 0+1 )
    Here are the error logs that I managed to capture.

    What you mention is really interesting , maybe I could try to benchmark the card very hard to see if I get the panics there. I will try that for sure, because my RAID wasn't actually a 0+1. It's what they call a RAID 10 , ( two groups of mirrored drives, + striped )
    It's like this post in macosrumors, but instead of two groups of striped disks, the big group is striped, and I got two smaller mirrored groups.

    And I think that sould be working just fine without the RAID PCI-X card right ? ( maybe I'm wrong here , that's why I need your input guys . )

  • HT3964 For the past several months my MacBook Pro has been shutting down. I get horrible video with marks and striations acress the laptop screen and an additional monitor and the weird video problems until the multilingual notice comes up saying to shut

    I used two monitors, and several months ago the MacBook Pro started crashing frequently. It seems like it might be overheating. Sometimes the disks seems to race. I leave the computer on most of the time and it sleeps when I am away, but when I come back in the morning it will have colored striations across both screens, and soon the multilingual announcement comes up that I have to press and hold down the power key.
    Also, when using a progam like Skype video, the video goes insane frequently, with Skype windows freezing, video freezing, Skype window cutting in half, and eventually the computer crashing.
    It seems to be a video problem.
    What do I do?

    I would take some screen shots of the anomalies and take the MBP to an Apple store genius bar.  I you cannot reproduce the display problems, the screen shots will at least give them a start point for an analysis.
    Ciao.

  • Having Problems with Kernel Panics and an External Hard Drive

    I've been having Kernel Panics for a month now and have yet to resolve the issue. I know about Dr. Smokes guide to resolving them, but I'm working on a time-sensitive editing project in Final Cut Pro and therefore have not had time to fix my computer.
    I am using an OWC external hard drive for the project, and today when I had a kernel panic and I rebooted my computer as I normally do. But, this time, my external hard drive icon was not on my desktop, and a message popped up that said, "The disc you inserted was not readable by this computer." Is there anyway to remedy this so that my computer reads my hard drive?

    Have you tried using Disk Utility to repair your ext. hard drive as shown in Dr.Smokes Resolving Disk, Permission, and Cache Corruption?
    Cheers!
