Hi.

And thx for your replay.

My memory settings in PS CS4 is set to 94%, cache level is 6 because i work with big pictures most of the time.

I have 4 internal 600GB drives so all 4 is set to scratch discs. I dont use any of the extra plugins your where referring to.

I used the memtest for the memory testing and i had it running all night in 6 loops. Nothing.

I had also changed my graphic card from the default Radeon 2600 to a Radeon 3870 but today i tried to go back to

the stock 2600 card just to test. Didn't helped. Was not that.

So now i have been trying again all 16GB (8x 2GB) and then everytime i get the error i shut down and tough out 2x 2GB = 4GB

and fired it up again.

I did that all day today and it came down to only 4GB left (2x 2GB) so unless its the last 2 blocks i tried, it must be something else ???

But lets see. I dont know anything yet because i went home before i could try it again.

So if i'm very lucky it was the last 2x 2GB blocks i tested and it will work right again when i install all the other 6x 2GB = 12GB tomorrow.

If not. It must be something else. Maybe the ram risers ?

I have no idea what else it could be.

I have tried so many things. New user. New system from scratch, installed everything from the begging. Mac OS X & Adobe suite. Didn't help.

So now i really really hope it was those 2x 2GB blocks i tested before i went home.

If you have anything else you can tell me. I would love to hear it  ;-)  again thx for your replay.

Ok. i checked all my 8x 2GB blocks yesterday again.

No help. They all function right. So it is not my memory thats corrupted. It must be something else ???

What could it be now.....

Hope someone have more answers.

Thanks a lot

Hi Ramòn

Thx for your replay.

No i didn't check the inside temp yet. Its a thought...

Now i did... All fans look like they are working right.

Exhaus Fan = 599RPM

CPU/Memory Fan = 499RPM

Expansion Fan = 799RPM

Power Supply Fan = 609RPM

All memory banks says around 108F / 42C

and

All Memory Modules from 129F / 54C to 147F / 62C

Is that normal range ?

Its strange because when i first start Photoshop CS4 and work. Nothing happen and system log file is fine.

But after i have been working for around 30-40 min in PS. The system log files shows all those errors from my first post.

I have been trough all my memory modules for testing and tried with only PS standard plug-ins.

Also trashed preffs etc.  everything what i can think of.

Here is a list of the plugins i have installed. Maybe some of you guys already know some that isn't compatible with PC CS4 ?

you never know  ;-)

Hi Chris

Thx again. But i moved all non Adobe plugins but the error still comes after a sertent amount of time ?

Someone told me to test with the memory settings in Photoshop CS4. To move the slider from lets say.

95% and then down in very small settings ?

Mugge

Hi .Buko

Thx for your replay.

I already tried that long time ago.

But thx anyway buddy  :)

Hi .Buko

Thx again.

But i even tried a full clone of a 100% working HD from one of my other Mac Pro.

Same thing ???  Its like this specific Mac Pro dosent like when there is 16GB of memory installed.

I didn't tried the hole scale of memory settings in Photoshop CS4 yet.

As i said earlyer. Someone told me it had to do with the memory settings in Photoshop CS4

So i still need to try different memory settings there. The slider. Move it from 90% down to

like 75% in small steps.

Hi Ramón

Thx for the suggestion but i already did that many times.

I wrote everything i tried earlier in this story.

All memory blocks have been tested by me and the shop where i bought them.

So all that have been tested to the end really.

I still need to test the memory settings in Photoshop CS4 preferences under performance.

I didn't had time yet. Someone told me that when you have a lot of memory installed, photoshop CS4

can some times be a little tricky with memory.

He suggested that i moved the memory slider starting from 95% and then down to 75% in very very

small steps. Like lets say, around 2% every time. From 95% to 92% all the way down to 75%

He ones had a problem close to mine and he did this and finally found the exact memory setting for

he's Photoshop CS4 memory and the error went away ?

Lets see what happen for me.

Thx again all

and this error i also get sometimes.

Please read my last 3 post. All other log errors.

Maybe some of them goes in the same direction ??

Hi Chris.

Thx a lot for your replay. I guess your right. I think my Noise Ninja is the course ? i wonder why because it is a INTEL

plug-in or at least universal. I even used it for over a year and it just started to give me trouble now... Strange.

Gonna check one more time to be sure witch plug-in it is..

Thx again..

btw, i haven't found out yet why i get the long system log error. The one here:

And it is not stopping there. It keeps on for a long time and the system log file gets really big (in MB)

Alright. Thx for your help so far.

Hi Chris.

I'm so thankfull for you help here buddy. Been hard to find the reason.

I think your right about a plugin that makes trouble.

But when you say a system driver. Where are system drivers located that photoshop CS4 uses ?

I only know that plugins is inside the photoshop folder.. But system drivers for photoshop ?

What about the plugin " Bigger Tiles.plugin " i have 16GB of memory installed so sould

i have this active or not.

I did turn it off after all this error stuff started but wants to know if i gain anything using it.

Forgot to ask a third question. I ones turned off the message where photoshop tells you that a

non kompatible plugin is in use. Its was when PS just started op.

Is that possible to get back so i can see if there is any non kompatible plugins is in use ?

Thanks..

Mugge

Hi mark-e-r

Do you still have the problem ?

I'm just curios to know. I didn't fix my problem yet.
