Okay so here's my problem. My mac just keeps randomly freezing for no reason, you know? Spinning balls all across the board, Chrome refusing any input or giving me a white screen every time I change back to another tab. Random warnings that the shockwave plugin isn't working. More spinning balls while browsing the finder. Menu bar not taking any input either, etc. etc.
I've tried a whole lot of things. I reduced the amount of startup apps. I tried clearing out a whole bunch of different caches. Activity Monitor shows no apps causing any CPU spikes, although a bunch of apps do sometimes all give "Not Responding" messages at the same time.
Tried restarting the computer in Safe Mode, and although I didn't spend a lot of time in that mode, it appears the problem persists there as well. At least I got some slowdowns while browsing the finder.
Using the Disc Utility to Restore Disc several times, but just gives me "no problems found".
I'm at a loss here. What other options are left?
I don't know what sort of info you people need, but if you need to know anything, just ask. These problems have come up incidentally a few times in the past, but today it's been especially bad. I've opened minimal apps at this point in time, using only one tab in Chrome. But still every once in a while I get a complete freeze.
So again, if you need to know anything, just ask. It's becoming very frustrating.
