Running Mojave on a Gigabyte Z87X-OC and it has been solid as a rock over the years. But recently I'm finding that if I leave the machine to go have dinner or be away for 2-3 hours, many times I'll come back and try to run a program but the program doesn't start and after a few seconds I get a perpetual beachball and have to power-down reboot to recover.
At one point I thought maybe it's just leaving Firefox and Thunderbird up while I'm away and something happens there but that's not the case. What changed? No idea really, this is a pretty quiet system as far as making changes or installing new stuff... it pretty much just runs the same **** every day. I do notice that if I'm active and doing stuff all day long, I never have a problem, it's only when the box is left to just sit there for a while. Really weird.
Just wondering if anyone else has seen this crop up?
