viking1304 Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 From time to time my system randomly freeze. When it happen I can not click anything, can't switch app or window, no shortcut works, but for some strange reason I can still move my cursor. Sometimes I even see that disk indicator flash. Only thing that I can do in that moment is to press and hold power button in order to shutdown my system. It doesn't happen too often, nor every day, but it's very annoying. Could it be related to wrong SSDT or some of patched files? Could it be related to TP link drivers for USB WiFi? Any other ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acquarius.13 Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 Hi! I'm not so pro user as you, but I encounter such annoying issues when sleep/hibernate mode are not correctly configured (i.e. when computer wakes up from sleep). Try to re-apply sleep/hibernate proper configuration, repair permissions and see what happens. I've installed HS just on a test disk. I can update my computer conditions as soon as I use HS on main disk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can update my computer conditions as soon as I use HS on main disk Hibernation is disabled, hibernatefile is set to /dev/null, permissions are good. Should not be related to hibernation, since it happens in the middle of work. Unfortunately it always happen when I am very busy, so I can't just left it like that to see will it start to work again.

acquarius.13 Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 Do you have an SSD drive or a traditional HDD drive? Inviato dal mio iPhone utilizzando Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Hervé Posted January 2, 2018 Administrators Share Posted January 2, 2018 'sounds like you have something corrupt in your installation so, unless you can identify what's likely causing the freeze through the logs, you'll most probably have to re-install from scratch.

viking1304 Posted January 8, 2018 Author Share Posted January 8, 2018 I reinstalled everything from scratch, but problem remains. Looks like some other people have similar problem on their macs https://discussions.apple.com/thread/8097885 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rumster Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 The changes made in high Sierra to how drives are expected to behave has left a lot of owners of older SSD's with firmware that is not apple's latest and greatest with issues everywhere. trimforce disable then trimforce enable might fix trim, and just turning it off might help...
