[QUOTE="Randy B. Singer, post: 1911629, member: 190607"] Sounds to me like some moron fed you BS because they aren't smart enough to actually help you. Are you receiving "out of memory" warnings? Under what conditions does your Mac crash? (Which applications are open, how many are open, etc.) What do you mean by "crash"? (Does your Mac give an error message? Does it shut down completely or re-start? Does an application just quit?) I'd do some troubleshooting. Test your RAM with this free utility: Rember (free) [URL code="true"]http://www.kelleycomputing.net/downloads[/URL] Run this free (but fully functional) demo of this program to test your hard drive: DriveDX - free demo [URL code="true"]https://binaryfruit.com/[/URL] Test the rest of your hardware with this free utility from Apple: Apple Diagnostics [URL code="true"]https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT202731[/URL] Do you have fully interactive anti-virus software installed? (If so, fully uninstall it and see if that helps.) If none of the above prove useful, look at the suggestions on this Web site: [URL code="true"]http://www.macattorney.com/rbb.html[/URL] [/QUOTE]
