'09 Mac Pro Mountain Lion Constant Crashes!

[whyrichard]

Hello,

My Mac Pro '09 is contantly crashing after my Mountain Lion Upgrade. I at first thought it was with iphoto 11, but not even having that running it is constantly crashing. All my apps quit, perhaps the finder quits, and then they restart.

How to fix? How to diagnose? this is frustrating...

it just crashed again when moving my picasa window from one monitor to the other (i have three monitors, two video cards... the stock '09 card and the fancy one at the time (ata something)

any clues?

thanks,
r.

for any of the five people left using multiple monitors on a mac, it is because of this bug:

Hi Richard,

It would appear the issues with 2 graphics cards running on a Mac Pro and Mountain Lion are not resolved in the 10.8.1 update.
