If you put it on wheels, you don't have to push so hard. :p Got the spining ball of doom, accessing a data base. The other time another Mac tried to use the same node, I lost the Mac totally and had reboot the G5 to reconcile a dffferent node.
 
this was a case of, i couldn't do anything no spinning ball, couldn't move the mouse, sound was all messed up. Had to do a forced shut-down/reboot
 
I thought you had a kernel panic, Mac version of BSOD (only had like 1 I think in like 5yrs or so and I did something dumb to cause it I think).

So what do to cause your lockup? Also never hurts to repair permissions if your having issues.
 
i was doing a 3d picture, adding lights and such and had a movie on in the background using mplayer, then the system just completly locked, sound went weird, could'nt move mouse, after i rebooted i did a disc check and permissions check, both said everything was fine
 
First Mac I ever owned, Internet Explorer crashed on me... will always remember that.

As for more recent escapades though, Logic 9 keeps crashing on me because I have an old version of Predator FX installed which doesn't agree with Snow Lepper 100%, maybe about 76%.

Also have had many KP's back on the old iBook G4 from using unsupported kernel extensions to drive the internal wireless card to run it in passive mode.
 
Never have had any problems with my Mac yet. Hope it remains so :)
 
My MAC has yet to crash. I don't where they get the "Mine Always Crashes" from.

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
