Q: Mac Pro 3.1 black screen, loud fans

Hello community,

 

I have a Mac Pro 3.1, 2008 dual 2.8ghz computer. I bought it cheaply as the original owner claimed it had a problem where it would randomly sleep, and a hard reset was neccesary in order to restart the computer. On turning on the computer myself I soon saw what he meant, all of a sudden, quite randomly the screen would drop out entirely and about 8 seconds later the fans go on full whack. This could happen before the computer boots, or could happen 15 minutes later. Sometimes it would happen more often when say I watched a youtube clip on full size in 720/1080p. This shut down can only be stopped by hard resetting the unit.

 

Originally i thought it might of been the graphics card (Nvidia 8800 GT) which upon researching had found out there have been issues with this graphics card for other people in the past, however they speak of glitchy graphics, over-heating and 'baking' the card. I tested the temps on the gfx card and they were not abnormally high at all. Infact on monitoring all the temperatures when the computer was on i noticed no abnormality with any temps apart from maybe the north bridge which was max 62 C when idling. But my macbook pro hits 75 C on the CPU when using intensive software (logic pro etc). I also tested the gfx card in both available pcie slots aswell as cleaning out excess dust from the gfx card using compressed air.

 

The computer has a WD velociraptor 128gb 10k rpm HDD installed. I tested the computer with a 128gb SSD which i know worked. I managed to install snow leopard from a DVD onto it before a crash and the computer worked for maybe 20-25 mins then it blacked out again. Not the hard drive then. Tested all the ram (6gb), moved them around etc, no red dimm lights on either board. Not the ram.

 

The only main components left really are the power supply and the logic board. I have no red leds on the logic board lighting up, so no obvious failures. And when the computer is on it works a treat.

 

Does this sound like the PSU is dying/dead? I thought this could be an easy software fix, but am now chasing the hardware train....

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated and thanks in advance!

 

Cheers!

    that console log looks like it was caused by a kernel panic. Can you post the kernel panic log, please from 21 March 14:21

    It appears the tablet driver crashed:

    Yes, I was reading this line too ^^. The driver has crashed but I wasn't using the tablet It is only plugged has it always is, the pen is stored and not activation possible. But the driver crashed.

    For keylight it's a after effect plugin, which is included in ae cc2014,  After effect wasn't running, neither keylight.

    Could driver or plugin generate such critical error???

    I was wondering If I could circle more the problem by plgging of internet from the macpro. Firefox is generating a lot of strings, as adobe cloud also.

     

    I also saw this line in a diagnostic message report,

    Mar 21 14:23:28 Mac-Pro-de-paul-.local AddressBookSourceSync[205] <Error>: INSERT-HANG-DETECTED: Tx time:9.840806, # of Inserts: 0, # of bytes written: 0, Did shrink: NO

    One more crash,

    since last one, I tried without any network plugged, it's the same. I re installed little snitch which I had long ago to filter internet.

    I try not to use firefox but safari....

    Same things it crashed today.

    So far there is still this assertion failed xpcproxy strings, this is happening since the beginning...

     

    Could it be a firmware or smc issue???

    xpc proxy is the mechanism that allows one task to spin off another task.

     

    It looks like in your Mac, something is getting stuck, not responding, and when new tasks try to spawn or something waits for the response (like from a window server) it waits forever.

     

    As I suggested before, you may be beating on bugs that were solved long ago. It may be worthwhile to update to the latest versions of everything and see if the symptoms change to something solvable.

     

    This is not characteristic of smc problems of firmware problems. There is no justification that the symptoms are incorrect.

    Thx Grant, but as I say I was on el capitan before and had similar bugs + freeze + sudden restarts + finder crash. So now I'm beginning to think apple doesn't welcome "old" Mac Pro anymore.

    If I go upgrading on el cap and have again similar bugs the way back from el capitan is very uneasy to go...

     

    How can I know which process is waiting for answer?

     

    Another crash occurred few minutes ago,

    Mac-Pro-de-paul-kernel[0]: process Creative Cloud[269] caught causing excessive wakeups. Observed wakeups rate (per sec): 159; Maximum permitted wakeups rate (per sec): 150; Observation period: 300 seconds; Task lifetime number of wakeups: 46580

     

    What does This line mean? For whatever reason (drive update behance network etc...)  the app creative cloud is asking frequently the mac to stay awake, and by default the mac is giving this app a limited amount of request?

    What could happen if this amount is exceeded ? could mac os kill a part of the process? and that is the beginning of troubles?

    Yesterday I was able to make it crash, 3 time on 4 It couldn't finish the diagnostic test from activity monitor, But each time at a different step . One time it crash while running dig, other time power metric etc...

     

    Does that help?

    I again,

    One new clue in this big mystery . I start without extension "safe mode", because I need to recover a external hard drive and make backup... So far it's working, it's been 2 hour since the beginning of backup.

    I tried run several diagnosis test It kept table.

    ...

    so it should come from extensions?

    HI

    Finally It crashes even if without extension.

    I wasn't able to recover the log, still no new kernel report.

    What I bring here is from the general message section just before the crash.

    There is still this xpcproxy assertion failed which seems to be the common error in all crashes. Is there a way to identify the process involved here like by exploring the log at the exact time of error and see what process match with the 3438 [D559FC96-E6B1-363A-B850-C7AC9734F210] address ????

    thx

    what graphics card are you running now?

     

    Did you say you have another known good one, NOT the 2600?
