New Hackintosh Crashing

[jinjamal]

I could really use some help here!

I got my hackintosh up and running with what seemed like no issues a couple days ago, haven't used it a lot yet but I noticed it started crashing today; it crashes, restarts and pops up with an error report. I can't figure out what's causing it...although it hasn't happened at all while I've actually been using the computer, could this point to a problem with display/computer going to sleep?

I've recently installed security update 2015-003, Adobe CS6 Suite, Wacom Intuos Pro driver, TP-Link WiFi USB adapter and a USB Bluetooth 4.0 dongle. ALL appear to be working 100%.

I'm not skilled enough to analyse the report so I would be grateful if somebody could take a look for me!
Thanks

Well at the very top of the report it mentions sleep wake failure, so thats your obvious starting point.

Check in to System Prefs -> Energy Saver to see what is setup there.

Also, using Terminal.app, type in 'pmset -g' and look at the putput for clues.

Thanks, so I don't really know what to look for in Power Saver options but I have it configured to display sleep at 5mins, Computer sleep at 15 mins. Hard Disk Sleep and Wake for Ethernet both on.

here is what came from pmset -g:

Active Profiles:
AC Power -1*
Currently in use:
hibernatemode 0
womp 1
networkoversleep 0
sleep 15
Sleep On Power Button 1
ttyskeepawake 1
hibernatefile /var/vm/sleepimage
disksleep 10
displaysleep 5

Well you could start by switching all the power options off then leave it to sit idle for a while. It may help you narrow things down a bit.

I'll do that and come back with result.

Left the machine on for a long time, even ran memtest which went fine. No crashes or freezes. ALL OK.

So I tried with Display Sleep ON and Computer Sleep NEVER. Display Sleep works completely fine.
I then tried Display Sleep NEVER and Computer Sleep ON (a setting which I can't seem to reproduce?), the computer seems to attempt to sleep, usb devices lose power, no display, but computer stays on and requires restart. The same happened with both settings set for same time.

If I remember correctly, Computer Sleep was working on my fresh install. And I cannot say why, but now there is no crash and restart like there was when Computer sleep was set for a longer duration such as >15mins.

If necessary I can live without the Computer Sleep function but it would be great if I could get it working! Any more advice?

Have you looked in console log to see what is reported there ?

Applications -> Utilities -> Console

So I set a marker before turning sleep on, here is the result after crash and restart.View attachment Console Before Sleep.pdf ignore the title it doesn't make sense

You have many issues.

Now you need to start following the site rules by completing the hardware in your user profile and also listing your hardware here on the thread. Be verbose. List everything, and I do mean everything.
