Ok, I was getting numerous annoying scroll bar crashes....too many to actually get work done. I was hating it. So I turned off the Quartz Extreme and replaced my L1 in the Master Bus with AD Limiter. The mixes sound better and NO MORE CRASHES....It hasn't crashed once. Maybe it has something to do with the Master Bus? Don't know if the Quartz Extreme was the problem, or the Waves in the Master Bus, so I don't really care why, I am stable again... 2x2 G5 1GB RAM MOTU 896 HD Waves

(Utilities/Terminal) Here is the info for how to disable/re-enable Quartz Extreme using Terminal: enter this command into terminal to disable quartz extreme: sudo defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.windowserver GLCompositor -dict tileHeight -int 0 tileWidth -int 0 (you must now reboot for changes to take effect.. your computer will stay in this state even through many reboots until you use the command below to re-enable Quartz Extreme) If you're not quite sure if you've successfully disabled Quartz, there's a free utility app that you can download and run which will give you the state of Quartz extreme... here's the URL: http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/15911 To re-enable quartz extreme type this command into terminal: sudo defaults delete /Library/Preferences/com.apple.windowserver GLCompositor

Several other posts on this subject claim that Quartz Extreme has nothing to do with this problem, so you might want to eliminate the Waves stuff before doing anything drastic.

I don't think I every suggested to anyone that this was a solution for all crash problems. I responded initially and specifically to someone else with a dual 2.0 G5 like mine. These machines have been having a great deal of trouble with freezing and one of the solutions for the problem is to disable Quartz Extreme...it worked perfectly here. I have never had any scroll bar related crashes, but then I didn't even load L7 until well after I'd disabled Quartz Extreme. Actually, this solution is not "drastic" It's pretty easy to do and pretty easy to undo. Best Regards, Stefan Garr
