[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1499048, member: 46727"] I'm not so sure memory is the problem. We have to determine if these crashes are software related or hardware caused. It may not be possible to keep the Activity Monitor open long enough to figure out what's going on but if you can try it for awhile it may tell us something. The other thing you can try is run the machine in safe boot mode. Safe boot disables all third party drivers, startup processes, and the sound. It also does a verify for the hard drive. [/QUOTE]
