MacPro 5,1, Quad-Core Intel Xenon processor, 4.8 GT/s, 6 GB memory, running Mac OS X version 10.6.8
Hardware test OK
System freezes up randomly. Had this problem about six months ago and Apple Support had me delete two files in the system library and the problem went away. But now it is back. What files were they?
Mac Pro, Mac OS X (10.6.8)
Note the time of the next freeze. After rebooting open the Console app in Finder>Applications>Utilities and look for log entries at the time of the freeze. Post suspicious ones here
Thank you for that suggestion. I had a crash at 0938 and collected these notes"
