[QUOTE="townsbg, post: 1512577, member: 249897"] I run mountain lion and ever since the most recent update [10.8.3] I have had stability issues and frequent crashes which I'll list below. There have been 8 since the update on Apr 4th and today being the worst with 3. Today's seem to have been caused by InterCheck at least that's what one of the crash reports said. Also today I had issues with first SystemUIServer and the InterCheck high CPU utilization. SystemUIServer was actually maxing out both CPU and memory so I had to kill it. I ran memtest today for 3 passes with a clean report; I did an output to a file which I'll attach if needed. Unfortunately memtest isn't scanning all of the memory. Does anyone know why and how to fix it? I ran it in single user mode. It's kind of frustrating because before the update I was able to go 90 days without a reboot at which time I performed the update. I have a mid-2010 iMac upgraded to 8 GB of ram with the 3.2 ghz processor. I don't do much resource intensive tasks. Mostly just light games, internet browsing, music, occasionally office and sometimes Windows on Vmware fusion 5. I am really good with Windows but I don't yet know enough about mac to know where to trouble shoot so any advise is appreciated. FYI I spent 20 minutes typing out a more comprehensive post and when I submitted I was prompted to log back in so I lost the post. I've never had a forum do that to me before. :Shouting: last | grep crash *** console Sun Apr 28 19:45 - crash (01:43) *** console Sun Apr 28 16:20 - crash (03:24) *** console Sun Apr 28 13:54 - crash (01:58) *** console Mon Apr 15 21:02 - crash (12+16:50) *** console Mon Apr 15 18:55 - crash (02:05) *** console Fri Apr 5 18:31 - crash (10+00:23) *** console Fri Apr 5 00:03 - crash (18:26) root console Thu Apr 4 23:54 - crash (00:05) *** console Wed Dec 19 19:21 - crash (2+03:20) *** console Tue Dec 18 22:44 - crash (20:36) *** console Sat Dec 15 23:31 - crash (12:21) *** console Mon Dec 3 23:01 - crash (1+18:41) *** console Tue Nov 20 11:04 - crash (23:13) [/QUOTE]
