After observing my computer for some time, I decided to start keeping a log of its various faults. Don't get me wrong, my computer is getting a little 'long in the tooth', so to speak. Problems are bound to start occuring. Hell, its almost 6 years old now. Despite this, it proves to be as useable as ever, thanks to the various upgrades and such I have done. But enough of this.
The whole point of this experiment is to see how many errors, including kernel panics, crop up over a period of a month. I've created a seperate page to hold this
'Problem Log' as well. There you can go to see what's going on.
could this stuff be in any way connected to your overclocking of your CPU? you could try stepping it down back to normal for a week or so and seeing if the same problems start arising.
I would but there really isn't a need. For all I know, it could be my RAM. I have 2 10ns DIMMs in here when its been suggested to only have 8ns. There have been reports of B&Ws running OS X being very bitchy about that.
I have been thinking of enabling a feature called DFS, dynamic frequency something, that the latest version of CPU Director came with. It is where it will clock the processor to about half its clock speed, 500MHz for my 750GX, when it is idle or there isn't a very heavy cpu load. Could be my processor getting hot, I don't know. Nevertheless, I'm working on it.
dynamic frequency modulation! oh, bloody hell -- i hate that. maybe that works better on macs, but it took me a year to figure out how to shut it off on my intel, because intels are very "choosy" about what they deem necessary for you to have 100% power for (i.e. your processor is running at 50% like 99% of the farking time).
but honestly -- try taking out those two dimms that you're having trouble with (you can live with half a gig :p ) and stepping down your CPU -- i guarantee there is probably a 75% chance of your problems perhaps sometimes going away.
