Hi Everyone,
I'm experiencing the 3 beeps and freeze. Only fix is a reboot. Basically had become a daily+ problem.
I've see the other threads on this forum however they basically all point to the ram.
When this originally happened I took it to Apple, they found nothing wrong, said it was maybe the ram (since it's second party) and maybe it's the logic board.
I used it as an excuse to upgrade my ram. Was previously using OWC ram and upgraded again buying from OWC. Even with the new ram I'm still experiencing the problem. (pretty sure there was nothing wrong with the original ram, did a "rember" test on it).
Updated to 10.8.2 in desperation, and it actually seemed to fix it for a couple weeks. Now the beeps and freeze are back. They seem to be getting worse (more frequent) is that possible. Just had it happen 4 times w/i the last hour...
Anyone have suggestions aside from replace ram? Seems to be seated fine too...
Thanks a ton for any advice,
Joe
MBP 8,2 *Just* outside of warranty :/

2 x 8gig ram. OWC (also happened with my previous 2 x 4 gig from OWC)
