[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1007451, member: 46727"] What you experienced may have been a "kernel panic". Those can be caused by software or hardware. Since it was only a one time thing, hopefully whatever caused it to happen is gone. If it occurs again or happens more frequently, post back and we'll do some trouble shooting. You did the right thing by running permissions repair and the AHT with your install DVD. It may in fact have been "Photo Mechanic" that caused the problem, but unless it happens again with the same program, there's not much you can do. Keep your fingers crossed. :) Regards. [/QUOTE]
