Apple/NVidia Driver Bug — Question Deleted

Joe Drago writes "I purchased a Mac Pro within the first week that they were available, and immediately upgraded to 3GB of RAM (knowing that OSX loves memory). When playing 3D games (World of Warcraft mainly), the game would Kernel Panic the machine if I had played it for a few hours, or if I swapped in and out of the game a few times, etc. I eventually found out (from an official Blizzard poster) that NVidia has a bug in their drivers that kernel panics a Mac Pro if any memory past the 2GB boundary is addressed in the driver. After waiting months for a resolution to this, I decided to post on Apple's support site. Here is an image of my post.. Within a few hours, they removed it from the site, placing it under 'Posts Removed by Administration.' What's going on here? Is Apple trying to hide this bug, or is there something more serious going on between Apple and NVidia?"

Wrong place?

So if you found out it's an Nvidia driver bug... why would you post in the Apple forums for an answer? Have you tried contacting Nvidia's support?

I agree. The simplest explanation is always the most likely, especially when regarding conspiracy theories. I'd much sooner believe that a moderator thought it wasn't relevant to the forum, or was having a bad day, didn't like your tone, and deleted the post out of spite than that this is part of a massive cover-up.

The poster did not say where he bought his upgraded RAM. Was it apple RAM? Was it paired? This sounds like bad RAM to me.
