Re: [CGUYS] Memory question...Betty
Have you tried to run X on another account? As admin, you'll be able to use your files. Does the second account crash? Which maintenance utilities have you used? I've fou No I haven't tried that Betty. I will make a new account and see what happens. Paula IN/USA Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, wine in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming WOO HOO what a ride!

Re: [CGUYS] Memory question...Betty
At this point I would start by letting it run all night with NO applications running. If it still has problems , then you've eliminated a lot of questions. If it did still have problems, I'd install OS X on an external HD and see how that runs. I have a little partition on a Firewire HD just in case I need to answer such questions. (I actually had an iMac with a hardware problem that took apple a while to give up on. They finally sent me a new iMac. And, they didn't even want the less than 1 yr old one back. Long story, but I recently got the old one out to further experiment with what it will and won't do before it has a kernel crash.) If you still have problems then I'd start checking and/or removing memory and check other hardware, or just take it to Apple.
