Occasionally over recent weeks since the native mac release I have been getting a black screen on undock. Then, after about 4 minutes, my mac locks up and after another few moments does a forced crash restart. I have done the usual redownload, install and also validate cache but can not ‘lock down’ the reasons or attributes associated with the fault to give a clear direction to the fault finding. Curiously this issue is random between my two characters, affecting which one it chooses without appearing to have pattern. Thoughts anyone? --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.eveonline.com/t/black-screen-leading-to-machine-crash-on-undock/334231)._
