Reproducing Aluminum iMac Interface Freeze

Posted:
in Current Mac Hardware edited January 2014
I found out how to reproduce a interface freeze on my 20" 2.4GHz iMac 100% of the time or at least in my case. Maybe some of you could try it and see if you have the same results. I went to www.callofduty.com and clicked on video trailers and started to watch the first Intro movie and before the video was over my imac completely froze. It happens 100% of the time for me. Guess I won't have trobule proving this to a apple genuis anymore. Let me know how it goes for you all.

    I will when I return this iMac Ireland. Don't know if I should just exchange it for a laptop or return it all together and go buy a PlayStation 3 or something.
