[QUOTE="Soulwar, post: 656613, member: 46986"] Try looking for corrupt preference files. They can cause some of the problems you describe. Use this [URL="http://www.jonn8.com/html/pt.html"]application.[/URL] For logs, use Console. They are time stamped also. (applications/Utilities) System Profiler has log info as well. (Utilities) For basic troubleshooting, create a new user account. If the problem is gone, it would indicate something in your home folder. (usually, a corrupt preference file or .plist) same thing... If the problem continues, it's likely something within the system itself. (System files, preference files outside of your home folder, corrupt apps, etc..) And the system freezes you are having, which cause you to force restart, causes more problems. Starts to become a vicious little cicrle... [/QUOTE]
