[QUOTE="eyebore, post: 926549, member: 127475"] [b]Snow Leopard video problems and more[/b] Snow Leopard does not allow me to restart my computer. If I hit restart the power light turns on, but all I get is a black screen forcing me to shutdown with the power button. I am however able to shutdown from the menu and reboot the computer without any problems. I am having trouble with all things video and web. I am supposedly using the latest and greatest software versions. Quicktime plays videos buggy, the picture freezes and skips as the audio continues on. Same trouble watching youtube videos. Premiere and Aftereffects do the same thing as well and have even crashed as a result. I'm running a dual core 2.66 with 7 gigs of ram. I ran Leopord with 3 gis of ram and didn't have these problems. Safari and Firefox both run buggy, with ahuge time lag, even as I reply to this thread. Social network sites are the worst followed by youtube. My Wacom tablet seems fine most of the time, but then the selection arrow takes off without any warning. It seems to recover pretty quick. This is not a huge deal for selecting files, but its a very big deal when working on involved Photoshop files. I am extremely disappointed thus far with Snow Leopard.
