Hi,
I bought a 2009 8-Core Mac Pro in April (after sending back 6 iMac 27"s for yellow tinge issues), and soon after installed Windows 7 x64. Recently, Windows 7 seems to be crashing quite frequently, most notably whilst I am working in 3DS Max (2010) or After Effects (CS5). On occasion, it will BSoD, although usually all of my attached displays show extreme graphical corruption (static noise with various colored bars) followed by the Mac Pro rebooting. Before a crash occurs, I generally get a "warning" in the form of little graphical glitches in Windows. For example, black squares following the cursor, etc... Since first installing Windows 7, the cursor (attached to my Magic Mouse) has also been "getting stuck" briefly every ten-or-so seconds.
I am positive that the Mac Pro is fault-free, as this has only ever happened under Windows 7 in Bootcamp. This problem is having extremely detrimental effects on my productivity, having lost several renders and scenes to corruption over the last week. I would be very greatful for any help anyone could provide, and I apologise for the long topic.
Thanks,
Troy,
