I think you guys are on the right track here. Memory leaks could well be the prob. If we look back to our windows days we had similar probs like this. Games in particular can be affected by this.
My scenario yesterday when I had the crash was not very intensive. I was viewing a PS tutorial in iTunes while performing the excersice in PS CS3. PS then crashed while not doing anything particular so I can't simulate the behaviour. No specific error msg, just the log thingy. Then when trying to run PS again it crashes again after a very short period of time.
I still don't know if I have the seperate PS crash issue (due to not proper installation or non crack usage) or if this is related to the mouse bug and other crash probs.
Thing is, PS still crashes, but less and I don't have the mouse bug anymore.
Now, Lanxxx, I'm willing to do the network test but what exactly do you want me to do. unplug the ethernet cable from my pc and let the pc run for a few hours? How long? what apps to run? how much stress do you want me to put on the system? Gimme some spec details fo test scenario.
We should also look into what kexts we are running, those with and without issues cause it might just be a simple kext replacement for all I know. What I'll do know is completely get rid of the d-forcedeth kext. It's still on my disk just in case I ever need the nLAN but I remember some having issues with the net even though they weren't using the nLAN and I think Zeph or someone else recommended removing the forcedeth kext completely.

Hiya Snow
yep disconnect lan would be good and run for over 4 hours 3-4 hours seems to be the crucial amount of time. Put the system under as much load as you can be bothered, if you don't get any problems after 4 hours I think we have narrowed down our culprit. I'll be away and won't be back till sunday night, but would really appreciate you doing this test. If we can narrow it down to internet related I think that would be very useful.
