Mac Pro Boot to slow :(

[rubenmfalmeida]

Hello Mac Lovers

I have a 8core mac pro, and now, when i start the system, it takes about 8 minutes to boot. This is happening without any reason. Can somewone help me?

I have already format the system and reset the PRAM and still do this....

Thanks

Do you have any third party controller cards or anything like that? Are you using non-apple approved memory? Give us just a little more info.

hello again..

I am not using any thing and the mac is the base model, no chages in the ram.

By any chance are the boot caches disabled, or is something happening that makes the Mac Pro re-update the boot caches?

When did you buy it?

Ever heard of Apple Care? Give them a call.
