Has anyone got freeze issues with an iMac? (2009 Nvidia GT 120 256MB)

For me, it's a software problems as SL never did this and i can run games for hours on lion an issue....doing anything in lion will result in a freeze and god knows how many hundres of reports i've sent to apple.

Funnily enough, on other sites i can't mention that talk of modifying OSX to run on other systems, they mention nvidia troubles in 10.7.3 and are coding their own drivers as Apple has poor implimentation in lion. Again - not one crash in Snow Leopard on a machine that ran 24/7 all year round though winter till summer..

On an iMac, i can't turn off graphics options as it's a desktop so i'm really stuck!

You have 16 bluetooth references in this panic report...I was having kernel panics in Lion as well, and finally bought my MBP into the Apple store to be checked. My computer checked out just fine, but my magic mouse was defective. Apple tried my computer with 5 different magic mice and all worked well...My magic mouse was really messed up. This happened in November, and Apple graciously replaced my mouse, even though they didn't have to...I have not had 1 kernel panic since getting the new mouse. I really never would have thought of this...also pay attention to any blue tooth keyboards you may use...these devices can and do cause kernel panics when they go wacky.

for my case, disabling automatic switching (to keep this MBP in discreet mode) doesn't work.

Like many others, i have to use gfxCardStatus to keep it in "integrated mode".

This has just started to happen to me too. It is a late 2006 imac. The screen suddenly goes black, and the only way to get the computer back up again is to unplug from the electricity supply and wait for an hour or so.

It is not an NVIDIA graphics. It is is ATI Radeon.

I've tried zapping the PRAM, but no difference.

Try resetting the SMC... it's more likely to have a positive effect than the PRAM.

Instructions here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964

Yes, that procedure is the only thing that does any good, except that I need to keep the machine unplugged for a lot longer than 15 seconds. More like 45 minutes or so. And five minutes after I reboot, it just goes black again. So there is something else wrong. It's almost as if the graphics are overheating, and I have to give them time to cool down.

I have a late 2006 MBP (actually purchased direct from Apple in March 2007) 2/ the 128MB ATI X1600 video card.  While I seldomly get the black screen, per se, I get repeated system freezes whenever doing anything graphics-intensive--in my case, watching video usually.  No matter the codec or container, and regardless of what app I use (QT, VLC, M PlayerX), it's a guarantee I'll end up w/ a system freeze (typically, audio continues, but not always, video freezes, and my MBP accepts no input via keyboard, touchpad, or USB laser mouse).  I always have to shut down by pressing & holding the power button.

I've done multiple clean installs of Lion now (erase & install), and I've gone through the dance of resetting PRAM & SMC.  I even thought perhaps Spotlight (mds process specifically) was the culprit, so I fired up terminal & disabled Spotlight for awhile.  But that was inconvenient, and it ultimately didn't solve my isses long-term.

FWIW, I agree that when it comes to older machines w/ the ATI cards, over-heating might be the issue.  When I re-start from one of these freezes, my fans are always screaming.  Usually it takes multiple re-boots to get things settled again.  And dangit, the inability to permanently turn off auto re-start of apps exacerbates these forced re-starts.  :sigh:  I'm not one of those who expects Apple to support old hardware forever, but if Lion is only meant for the latest machines, be decent enough to tell me so I wouldn't have to go through all this aggravation & massive downtime.  It's sad that I now have to use a friend's Windows machine when I travel so I can watch movies (as opposed to spending all my time going thorugh forced re-starts).  /end rant

dtabach, I posted the old and new board rev numbers a few months ago and they are in this thread. The Apple paperwork is buried somewhere in stacks of paper at my desk at home and this is my son's laptop that I don't have physical access to.

that´s strange because i don´t use any bluetooth devices and my bluetooth is never turned on?

i would like to have my macbook checked by an apple service provider, but if my macbook passes the test, they wanna have 100 euros. and i read, that there are many macbooks who have passed this test. and i think 100 euros for 10 minutes work is very much

sorry for my english. i´m from austria

That is strange, and I can't even guess where the blue tooth errors are coming from. Also, you should have your laptop checked by Apple service, but to charge 100 euros if the macbooks pass the test is ridiculous and is not the Apple policy here in the US...I would contact Apple on this one because as long as there a doubt as to the integrity of your system, this test should be done for free...do you have a direct Apple support number in Europe where you can call and question this practice? I would certainly look into this if I were you... what have you got to lose...

By the way, your English is just fine.

Just had my logic bord replaced, problem fixed.

QUESTION: anyone here that had the logic bord replaced and problem fixed(like me) had the problem again? for example 3 or more months later?

i am asking this because i am trying to find what the problem might be related, for example, my best guess is if you push a lot your gpu, some how it will get damaged and the problem will start again..

DioAlma, I had logic board replaced in July 2011 and the problem was fixed. I was so happy I can work without loss of nerves. It starts again in the end of november.
For now I have BSOD about 10 times a day...  I don't have a time to go to Apple for new logic board and hmmmm, something tells me it will not helps...
I spent more then USD3000 for this laptop. It is my most expensive laptop I ever buy. I was not sorry I spent this money. First year I was so happy I switch to Mac. I did not have ANY problem till Lion OS... Do not know what to do...

Apple, now I am sorry, I want my money back.

hey where do you get the article about the warranty?
