2008 Mac crashes 10 minutes after start up
I use mainly for Logic and it crashes 10 minutes after start up
iPhone XR, iOS 17
Question marked as
Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at startup), does the problem occur in Safe Mode? Could take 10 minutes or more.
Safe mode attempts to repair Disks & clears lots of caches & loads safe Drivers, & prevents loading of 3rd party extensions, so if Safe Mode works try again in regular boot.
Are you running any VPN, Anti-Virus, or Cleaning apps?
