[QUOTE="MacHeadCase, post: 376133"] Welcome here, drumkey87. If johntallin's tip doesn't work, I would download [URL="http://www.santasw.com/"][B]MainMenu[/B][/URL] and run all the [I]Rebuild[/I] tasks first and then the [I]Cleaning[/I] tasks (deep cleaning for the System). After the cleaning tasks you'll have to restart: don't worry if you find the restart is taking a bit longer than usual, the system will be rebuilding its cache from scratch. If things aren't back to normal, I would insert the CD (or DVD) containing Apple's Hardware Test restart holding down the [I]D[/I] key and run the test in extended mode. This will check all your hardware components, including RAM and video card (my guess is that it'll be able to check Intel's on board video chip, the GMA 950 graphics processor). Either way, report back your findings and we'll see what is to be done. Good luck! :girl: [/QUOTE]
