| Chris did you happen to note my point when I first replied, about Optical Flares having a known issue with the Quadro? > From: Jim Curtis [mailto:jpcurtis@me.com] > Sent: Thursday, December 1, 2011 03:11 PM > To: 'After Effects Mail List' > Subject: Re: [AE] Mac Kernel panics > ... > Optical Flares (latest rev) will crash AE 100% of the time with my newish Quadro 4000 when the "use GPU" box is checked. It works fine as long as that box is unchecked. Perhaps you could try unchecking the box to see if that helps things. I wasn't getting KPs, but simple application crashes. I did get one KP within hours of first installing my Quadro, but none since, and this (again) is my standard routine after getting one. I also some times will zap the PRAM as well, just to start with a clean slate. > I swear by Disk Warrior, which I run immediately after every Kernel Panic. It seems to vanquish them for a long while. Then for good measure, I run Applejack AUTO before commencing work again. > Sorry to be redundant, but this routine has worked well for me (so far). I've also mentioned this on occasion: An Apple "genius" once told me that "when you get a hardware failure with any computer, it just fails... you don't get a error screen. Error screens point to a software or configuration issue." I don't know if I totally buy that, but it makes a certain amount of sense. For good measure, you could try re-installing your hardware drivers, in case something got corrupted. But, I'm piqued by you having several machines having the KPs simultaneously... Maybe you're onto something with the air-conditioning. Seems like that would be easy to test, if you have some control over the HVAC programming. Best of luck running it down. Jim C. . |
