    Random Pixelbender Error

      Hello everyone.  I am VERY frustrated!  I spent a lot of $$$  between CS 5.0 Extended and LR 3 ... and no phone support for Adobe Lab stuff?  

       

      Anyways, here is my  problem:

       

      I downloaded PB onto my 2008 imac 2.0.  Some photos, from the same shoot, work fine, others just pixelate in various ways.  ONLY the Oil Paint filter is affected.  Also some image files were unreadable/black. I thought my card was bad ... then maybe the camera.  I know that my imac has an issue, which Apple can't find.  I assume the graphics card is bad.  So I installeed CS 5.0 onto my MB Pro ..... evreythings works fine.  All images are visible and P>Bender works.  Since the imac freezes at times and P.Bemder was not working properly, I decided it was time to get a new Mac.  I bought a 2011 Mac Mini Server .... intsalled everything and ...... now NONE of the filters in P.Bender work !!!

       

      I tried both 32&64 bit versions.  I used the same images on my MB Pro and every filters works. 

       

      Anybody have any ideas?

       

       

      Thees are the sort of results I get:
