Crashing my new 8 core Mac Pro

[thehowlingwolfe]

I just got a 8 core Mac Pro at work and it has developed a nasty crashing habit. I think that I have narrowed the problem down, but I wanted to see if anyone had any advice.

The machine crashes whenever I view a PowerPoint (08) or Keynote (09) file in presentation mode. In the current setup I have the presentation on one screen and my notes and information on the other screen.

I am running dual 24 inch LED monitors (not mirrored) and when I disconnnect one of them, there is no crashing and the presentations work great.

I have two NVIDIA GeForce GT 120 512 video cards.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!

Im gonna guess that the program(s) powerpoint and keynote that the files for the program are corrupt. If i were you I would reinstall the programs.
