Q: Mac Pro Crashing

My Mac Pro crashes randomly. Screen goes a pale colour with vertical pin stripes. Screen stays in this condition for about 30 seconds before the mac shuts done and restarts. It will crash with programs like Premier Pro CC running or if it is sitting idle with no programs open. Any suggestions?

Mac Pro, OS X El Capitan (10.11.3)

    see if there are any panic reports in the log, using this article:

     

    Mac OS X: How to log a kernel panic - Apple Support

     

    If there are kernel panics, cut and paste the text of one in its entirety. Please do not post a screenshot -- by the time we see them they are illegible. And do not post more than the first few lines of an Application panic -- those are only useful to the developer.

    IF you configure the Mac Pro late 2013 when you setup the machine for the first time, it ask you if you want to send diagnostic report to apple and to the developer, if you check yes this report will go to the developer and to apple. Seems to me that you will have to reinstall the adobe software delete it now, for some reason it has corrupt some files and it's causing your machine to crash. Also seems to me that the graphics card in the line of the software that causes the machine to crash.
