Kernel Panic Hardware Issue?

Hello,
I have a late 2008 MBP (MacbookPro5.1) and having kernel panics all the time. It has a 128GB ssd, but replaced with my old hdd and it's still the same, so it's probably a hardware problem. If I don't have any HDD inside and trying to boot from the Mountain Lion USB it still have kernel panic and can't do anything.
BUT... I can boot in safe boot mode.
Any idea?
I had some different error messages like:
The last one:

You are confusing the issure. One at a time, please.
The panic you reported in this topic was on a newly installed HDD or an older HDD. Is the problem only on a HDD or only on an SSD or on both in the same computer?
Did you prep the new drives properly?
Drive Preparation
1. Boot from your OS X Installer Disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button.  When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
If you are preparing an external or a non-startup drive, then open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area.  If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing.  SMART info will not be reported  on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Security button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
6. Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.
Steps 4-6 are optional but should be used on a drive that has never been formatted before, if the format type is not Mac OS Extended, if the partition scheme has been changed, or if a different operating system (not OS X) has been installed on the drive.

    Kernel Panic - Hardware or software?
    Mac Pro Early 2008. 2 x 2.8 Quad Core. 16 GB RAM. OS X 10.8.2 (12C60)
    This morning my Mac Pro Refused to start.
    It goes into an endless cycle of the grey panel message "Your computer needs to restart etc. ...... " with each restart failing.
    Here is what I have done and discovered so far:
    1) Disconnected all peripherals and network and secondary monitor leaving only principle Apple monitor, Apple Keyboard and Apple mouse. No help - Problem remains.
    2) Done a recovery start up and repaired disks and permissions (nothing significant found there). No help -  problem remains.
    3) I can do a safe boot and have tried rebooting from this. No help - problem remains.
    However inspecting the system from Safe Boot starts to show some interesting things.
    4) If I open Acitivity Monitor and look at RAM it is completely clogged with Page Ins (Over 14 GB of them). The Pie Chart is completely red. This would look like a RAM issue. There is almost 160 GB of free space on my startup disc and 16GB of RAM Installed.
    5) "About this Mac" Memory tab correctly finds and identifies all the DIMMS and shows their size and slots correctly.
    No. 4 would seem to indicate a memory problem but No 5 would seem to indicate that the DIMMS are functional and the system able to address them.
    I have tried removing the DIMMs and trying them pair by pair and in various different combinations. No change. The system can consistently identify them and their slots but the Only Safe Boot works and the Page In log jam is always present.
    I am mystified as whether I have a hardware or software problem here. If it is software then a full clean re-install followed by a time machine restore may solve things. What worries me is that if I have a hardware problem and attempt this I may end up with no OS as well.
    Any suggestions for further analysis? Any wisdoms greater than mine can explain the significance of the Page ins? Should I try re-installlng first or is it time to visit the repair shop?
    Any help welcome please.
    David Mac

    Sorry to be late responding. I have been unexpectedly bedridden since posting and only able to try your suggestion today.
    Sadly I cannot get Apple's hardware test to run at all. Holding down the D key does nothing at all. Accessing the test by internet isn't going to work on a 2008 machine. Tried the original installation disc as suggested by apple. Doesn't work. Since Lion install I cannot start up from any disc pre Lion-  it causes a black screen 'You need to restart ......".
    So stymied for now.
    Looks like I'll have to try ans see if a full clean re-install will work. If it doesn't then back to the shop.
    I have the whole system fully backed up externally so nothing to lose in the long run. Just don't want more chaos than necessary ;o)

  • NVIDIA GPU Kernel Panic - Hardware or Software?

    Hi, everyone,
    I generally don't game on my MBP, except for some Torchlight, Plants and Zombies, but recently, decided to pick up Europa Universalis 3 developed by Virtual Programming for Mac.
    I've been playing for days and then last night, in the midst of playing, the game froze, the screen flickered and basically crashed, forcing me to power down and back up. I've only ever had two kernel panics in the life of this machine, this being the second (the other not game related).
    I dug up the system log and this is the only entry associated with the crash:
    11-05-30 10:46:33 PM          kernel          NVDA(OpenGL): Channel exception! exception type = 0x6 = Fifo: Parse Error 00000069
    This error continues until I shut it down.
    From searching on this forum, this seems to be specific to NVIDIA, as the ATI Macs/MBP don't have these issues. Is this a software issue (due to poor drivers) or something more serious like a hardware issue that I should actually bring in to Apple and have repaired? My sense is it's a software issue, and I should stay away from 3D gaming on this MBP despite the fact that it has an integrated and discrete solutions.
    From what I understand, too, the ATI-based MBP don't have performance issues, and perform well.
    First Starcraft 2's poor performance (despite this hardware) and now this.
    Very disappointed.
    Thanks for your input.
    Cheers,
    Wilde.

    Hi, Linc Davis, I have a same one, and a few other people with Mac book pro Retina 2012 GPU-Panics
    Than, screen goes off, but you can still hear computer working and keyboard works. You can change volume and hear it changing.
    I checked it and if you plug external HDMI screen, it still works. Than when you run a hard video program, it crashes with GPU-Panic, and external screen also goes off. It crashes right when it slightly changing colors (switching from one Video card to more powerful one.)

  • Kernel panic: hardware or software related

    I had two kernel panic incidents recently. I know that most kernel panics are related to hardware. I have not 3rd party ram and only my monitor, keyboard (apple) and mouse installed. That is, no additional usb or firewire devices. I understand that faulty ram is one possibility and that ram tests may not fully diagnose the problem. I tested my ram with rember and the techtools that I got with my applecare (runs out march 2009.) I was not able to boot into the techtools DVD so had to run it off of the harddrive after updating. I ran rember with the finder still active (there is the option to run rember without the finder running). The memory tests in rember and techtools passed which I understand may not tell me much. I have not yet run the memory test off of my install disks.
    Before updating to 10.4.11 using the combo updater, I booted from my install disk and repaired the drive (it was ok) and repaired permissions (from the install disk). I did the same two tasks from the install disk after the updates, although I let a couple of days pass before doing these tasks. After reading in another forum that repairing permissions from the install disk (os 10.4.5) might have caused some problems, I just repaired permissions while running from my day-to-day account.
    I have decent backups.
    I thought I'd run my two kernel panics by you folk in this forum to see if anyone has any suggestions.
    *kernel panic #1*
    I got this kernel panic the other day on shutting down. That is I shut down using the shutdown command in the apple menu then got the kernel panick The only new thing that I had done (asides from finally updating to macosx 10.4.11 and the latest security patch) was that I had my idisk set to automatic, so the mirror agent was active. I have shut down a couple of times since with out kernel panic.

    kernel panic #2
    This actually happened twice put I only have one crash log. I think that the reason why I only had one crash log is because after the second kernel panic, I had to boot into safe mode to get rid of my icalalarm scheduler from my login items because of some conflict. Anyway, the scenario is that I am using firefox 3.0 (I have the latest version) and then open google earth. After I try to open google earth, I get kernel panic.

    I went to the Apple Store in Bridgewater NJ, receiving very thorough attention from Alma (Apple Genuis). She read the report from my earlier conversation with Apple Care, I told her about the error message from AHT, and she then did a very thorough diagnostic using one of their utilities. Her theory was that if it was hardware related, that it might be the graphics card on the logic board or the memory. Seems that she was having a hard time finding the error code for my mini model in their database. <shrug> The memory test took about an hour and it passed. And I think it passed the other tests she did, but when she tried to reboot the machine, got a kernel panic which told her that it is the logic board (graphics card that is soldered on the logic board.
    The Bridgewater NJ store is undergoing some renovations so they are, for the moment, not able to order parts and have lost much of their backroom. But she took down a detailed report with new apple care case number after making an appointment for me at another apple store (Menlo Park, I've been there before, they are good). She also told them to order a logic board. I work tomorrow, so I am going this Friday afternoon.

  • Kernel panic, hardware test lion---

    hi
    I've been several kernel panic in the last few days,,, running lion since it's been released and never had a problem... since some days i have a pop-up about the un-upadated perian software.. today i deleted perian..
    how can i run a hardware test with lion?
    what can you suggest?
    thanks
    m

    sorry but neither works:
    Use Apple Hardware Test
    Open the Help Viewer’s Action pop-up menu (looks like a gear) and choose Print to print these instructions.
    Disconnect all external devices except the keyboard, mouse, display, and speakers. If you have an Ethernet cable or external DVD drive, disconnect them.
    Restart your computer, holding down the “D” key while the computer restarts.After your computer restarts, you should see the Apple Hardware Test chooser screen. If you don’t, Apple Hardware Test may not be available on your computer. You may be able to start Apple Hardware Test from the Internet. Reconnect your computer to the network, and then restart your computer while holding down both the Option and “D” keys.

  • Kernel panic: hardware or software problem?

    Can anyone read those logs and tell me what could be the problem?
    I bought a refurbished MBP 15" 2.2GHz i7 quad core with anti glare screen and originally 750GB HDD  4Gb of ram and it arrived on September 1st. I wanted to upgrade to 8GB of RAM and a SSD but at the moment I upgraded only the SSD (to a 120GB Corsair Force 3). In those days I experienced 5 kernel panic. It's not the first mac I buy, and those kernel panic are a bit too frequent and unnatural. I run the Apple Hardware Test twice (in the extended test) but no errors there.
    Before getting Kernel panic, it could happen that I see some graphic artifacts on screen (maybe it's the ram? the graphic card(s)?). I installed gfxCardStatus v2.1 to switch to intel integrated GPU.
    I'm running on mac os 10.6.8, all software is up to date.
    Here are the logs:

  • MBP Kernel Panic - USB issue?

    Hi,
    We have a MBP mid-2009 model that seems to be undergoing frequent kernel panics, and all the logs show a similar type of report. Can anyone diagnose the following? I think it may be a USB issue.

    Under the keyboard, hey? So you have a Titanium Powerbook. You should update your profile to include the model and CPU size of your Powerbook to help get more accurate assistance. Crucial is a reputable brand of RAM. They also offer a lifetime warranty.
    The clips: I used to have a Titanium Powerbook, but it was a few years ago. If MY memory serves me right the clips move to the outside of the RAM modules. Due to the heat and never being removed they may have semi-welded themselves into position. One trick would be to heat the computer up and try to remove them while it is warm/hot. Just plug it in and run some CPU intensive apps for a while, then turn it off, remove the battery, ground the computer and give them another try. Grounding (earthing) the computer to remove static is not difficult. After you have removed the battery just touch the metal case and grab a metal window or door frame. That will ground any static in the machine. Also, if you are working on carpet take your shoes and socks off to avoid more static build up. You could even go as far to stand on a rubber bathroom mat while working on the computer, but replacing RAM should only take a few minutes. If you still have difficulties getting the RAM stick out go to a site called The Powerbook Medic and look for tips on removing sticks from a Titanium.
    Hope the new RAM stops the panics.

  • Macbook Pro 15.4 screen 2.16 mhz - Kernel Panic - Memory Issues?

    Don't know if anyone else has experienced this? My Macbook Pro worked perfectly for about a week but currently won't get beyond the post screen.. BUT occasionnally will work normally.. When it isn't working AHD will report memory errors BUT when it does work AHD reports everything fine..
    Has anyone else had intermittant memory errors .. at different memory locations.. Possibly it is a flakey ram controller but thought I'd check.. and see if it is anything else.. It is driving me mad.. had an iBook for 3 years .. not any problems buy a macbook pro and it lasts a week?

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    Due to the nature of RAM, which stands for Random Access Memory, any errors reported should be believed. The lack of errors does not mean there isn't a problem. Replace it.

  • Kernel Panics, Drive Corruption, Directory Issues.

    Desktop M8840LL/A Dual 1.25GHz PowerPC G4 (FW800) MDD
    2GB Ram, 2 WD - 500GB IDE Drives Internal, 4 SATA Dr (2 WD - 500 GB SATA internal 1 WD 500GB SATA, One WD 640GB SATA external ), Sonnet Tempo SATA X4i PCI Card, ATI 9600Pro AGP, 1- 23in Apple Cinema Display, One 24in Samsung Display. 3 Firewire 250Gb WD external Drives.
    This setup was running great for 2 years until a four year old WD drive failed 3 weeks ago and corrupted its data etc. I had the data backed up so no panic.
    I decided to replaced it 3 weeks ago with a new 500GB WD IDE and reinstall 10.5 and migrate users for that drive.
    Ever since I have been getting daily if not hourly kernel panics and issues with ALL drives on my system.
    At one point the system loscked 4 drives and I could not access them at all.
    Discussion group helped fix that issue.
    I have managed to saved all my important data to a 500GB drive without a system on it and hopefully can deal with the issues at hand without worrying about the data.
    Booted from my System 1.5 install disk and had a dark grey/ Must restart your mac screen while I was booting from the DVD!
    Did an Apple Service diagnostics on the machine and all was great - no issues.
    So I did a clean install on a drive and all looked great!
    No other software installed except the system.
    Rebooted OK.
    I then did the apple software update and restarted.
    No startup!
    Rebooted with option key down - no drives??
    I have been working on this for three days and seem to be going backwards at best.
    I can boot sometimes and usually get a kernal panic eventually.
    It can happen right away or an hour later.
    Sometimes I get a message "your computer was shut down etc" sometimes I don't!?
    Sometimes I get a startup chime - sometimes I don't!!??
    What should I do next?
    Advise whatever info you might need and I will do my best to provide it.

    I stripped my Mac down to barebones incluing original 80GB Drive 512 RAM and Original Video card and started over.
    To make a long procedure shorter I found that all hardware was OK and after running ASD to confirm I reinstalled all my hardware/Add ins except for drives.
    I then started to check each drive individually with Applejack and then formatting and reinstalling virgin systems on each drive.
    Applejack and/or the system DVD would not fix and/or install on three of the Hard Drives (1 IDE 500GB and 2 500GB SATA)due to permission corruption. I could not do anything with these drives at all!
    When I had these individual drives in the computer I experienced kernel panics with every one!
    All the drives were under warranty and Western Digital replaced all of them. (I cannot begin to tell you how great Western Digital was in turnaround time and cross shipping and help in this matter.) Their warranty service is the best I have ever experienced bar none!
    I am now running non stop for nearly a week without any kernel panic or problem whatsoever. I have also noticed a significant speed up in my computer.
    I have rebooted many times and run non stop for days at a time.
    I maintain my computer with maintenance scripts once per week and do it faithfully and this type of permission issue can still occur!
    Without my backups there would have been a disaster for me.
    Many thanks to all the peolpe that emailed help to me from all sources.
    Sometimes out of the worst of situations good prevails.

  • Airport Extr. Vers 4 - w/ kernel panic issue?

    Hi All --
    hoping someone can shed some light on a kernel panic/Airport issue.
    Just received my MBP back from repair shop - with a newly installed Vers. 4 Airport Extreme.
    But its toast.
    Airport works for about five minutes and either switches itself off (to blank icon - not greyed) and i need a restart, or the machine goes into kernel panic - freezing the machine & black curtain falling.....
    I will be on the blower first thing in the morning, but am curious if anyone here can translate some error/kernel messages??
    I can see some sort of driver info coming up but not sure what this means.... except for returning the MBP for another week of reparing......(I have re-set SMC, re-installed 10.5.2 dvd, Updated to 10.5.6, re-installed/downgraded to my old system 10.5.3, but no joy)
    thanks in adv. for any info
    John.

  • Battery Failure and Kernel Panics. Help!

    Hi all,
    Thanks in advance for your help.
    About a week ago, after I had left my computer alone for two days, it randomly shut off when the meter up top said it had 40 minutes. Then, when it was closed in sleep mode and I opened it, it told me it had to be restarted--which I, through reading the forum, found out is a kernel panic. Since then it has not given me any more kernel panics, however, it consistently turns off at about the forty minute mark. This is what I have done so far:
    attempted to recalibrate the battery, which hasn't worked/I don't know if it really can because it doesn't get below 20% without shutting off. (btw, when I turn it back on, with the plug in, the battery is not dead, it's at around 20%).
    have done the first three steps in the x guide to kernel panics.
    Does this sound like a battery problem, and if so how do I solve that?
    or does it sound like a kernel panic, hardware problem?
    Thank you so much for any help, I desperately want to fix my computer.
    Besos.
    ibook G4   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    Hi alby23,
    Welcome to the Discussions.
    If your computer is two years old, it's in need of a new battery. If you open System Profiler (Apple menu>About This Mac>More Info) the battery's capacity and charge cycles will be listed. If the Capacity is ~2000 you have less than 50% of a new battery's which is 4400mAh.
    You may be able to solve part of the problem by resetting the PMU. That may get the time/percentage back to a more accurate number. If that doesn't help, get a new battery.

  • A dozen+ Kernel Panics, suspect system issues - what to try?

    Hello!
    Well, in the last few weeks, my poor little Powerbook has lost its mind. I keep having Kernel panics for no apparent reason. Here's the story so far:
    1. I upgraded to Leopard (archive/install) from Tiger, in November.
    2. In early January, I had at least one kernel panic. Not sure what happened. By the middle of January, I had 3 or 4, and on (about) the 15th, I had three kernel panics in the span of an hour - and the lower ram card wasn't being recognized. I took it to the Apple store, where the tech said that it was the infamous "lower ram-slot issue" that plague my model Powerbook.
    3. Once I got the powerbook back from the shop, it seemed to work quite well - fast, stable, panic-free. This week, however, I've had at least 6 or 7 kernel panics - at least 4 of them in the last 24 hours. A few of these weren't the usual "you need to restart your mac" window, but rather a long list of console-like text from the BSD subsystem itself
    It seems to be related to the software - or perhaps Dashboard. Dashboard client has been running out of control this week - and started to go nuts about when the kernel panics started to occur. In fact, one of these "BSD" panics said that the dashboard client hung the computer. Thus, I moved all of my user (non-apple) widgets out of the library folder - effectively removing them from dashboard. This has prevented dashboard client from going nuts, but hasn't stopped the kenel panics. The ones that have occurred since seem to occur when using Safari or MS Word 2004, and one (another BSD panic) said that Window Server hung.
    I've repaired permissions many times, used Disk Utility to verify the boot volume (it was OK), and zapped the PRAM and PMU - no luck.
    I've had some other hardware and software issues:
    First, Spotlight crashes when I attempt to search for something with a common name and have my 4 external hard drives attached... (One with Time Machine backups, one with other backups, and the rest with large volumes of video editing files). This issue probably isn't related to the kernel panic issue though, since it only occurs if I spotlight gets really bogged down - say, I search on "mac" and get 5000 returns...
    Sometimes, if I have the power adapter plugged in and then boot up or wake the Mac, it sometimes won't recognize the adapter and thus run off battery. The solution? Unplug the adapter from the Mac and the wall, then plug both sides in. This occurs at least once a day, having become a much worse issue since sending it into Apple. This makes me think that I may have a issue with the power supply system in the Powerbook, and may be one of the causes of the panics. Again, zapping the PMU and PRAM, hasn't helped. Nor has deleting every power-related plist file.
    The ram issue seems to have stopped, and I'm not sure the power issue could cause this - so I don't know what to do about this. It's happening a lot, but it's not exactly predictable - it would be difficult to reproduce for the Mac Genius, should I run to the Apple store. Since I suspect it's a software issue, I'm also not sure they can do anything about it. If Apple can't do anything about it, I plan on doing an Erase-install of Leopard, then carefully installing software - one thing at a time - to see if I can find the culprit. If worst comes to worst, I'll downgrade to Tiger...
    So then, the questions, summed up are:
    1. Do you have any idea what could be going on?
    2. Can apple do anything about a software-related kernel panic issue?
    3. If Apple can't fix it, and an erase-install won't work, when else can I try?
    Sorry for the long post, and thanks a bunch for the help, I appreciate it.
    -Dan

    K, well i'll try to find the log on the backup clone I made - the Powerbook is currently in the Apple store for diagnostics. Hopefully, then can figure out what the deal is, but it will likely require an archive/install.
    When I was there, he opened one of the logs in console - and it showed literally thousands of errors - all from "kernel". Wow, i have no idea what happened. He said that it may be bit-rot on the part of some of my applications, but there's probably not much they can do if it's not a hardware problem. sigh
    Anyway, I'll look for the log on the backup volume when I get a chance. Thanks, I suppose you're right about you being forced to guess without the log. Didn't think about that... O:-)

  • Kernel Panic Issue - mid 2010 MacBook Pro

    I need some help with this kernel panic situation I'm experiencing. The number of panics have progressively gotten worse in the past couple months, and had increased to a panic about every half hour.
    Today I went to see the Apple Geniuses and they did a complete erase of my hard drive and reinstall of OSx 10.6.8. I have yet to add any new programs since thehard drive wipe. I was actually trying to download Adobe CS6 dmg when my computer had a kernel panic and forced me to shutdown. (I was also running Safari when that happened.)
    I was assured by the Apple Genius (on this visit and the one a couple months ago) that there is nothing wrong with any of my hardware. My machine has also passed every hardware test I've done. We thought the initial kernel panic situation was due to 3rd party software from X-rite (Color Munki) as that showed up on my reports.
    I don't know what the problem is now since my machine has been wiped.
    Can anyone here please help?
    Here's my panic report:

    Thanks for the quick reply Carolyn! I appreciate the help.
    The Apple Genius ran a full diagnostic of my hardware today. I ran the Apple Hardware Test a couple days ago. Everything says hardware is not the issue. I'm really not sure what is happening since it keeps passing multiple hardware tests and there are no 3rd party software additions. I have read of other people having OSx kernel panics with 10.6.8.
    I did update software that Apple recommended when I turned my computer on -- Safety Update and Java. Other than that, I haven't added any other software since my hard drive wipe (since my CS6 wouldn't complete before the kernel panic).

  • Ram related kernel panics on a MBP (ram used to work, hardware errors-)

    hello all
    i have a 2.2GHZ intel core duo 2007 MBP, which once ran Tiger and is now running 10.6.3
    I had the NVDIA graphic card break down associated with such models, and it was replaced thanks to the extended care plan, here in Paris, so the logicboard is new- I also got a (technician installed) new HDD, and snowleopard
    I originally had the 2 1Gig ram, but 1st got an extra 2Gb of danelec ram, and finally another 2GB- it ran fine for a couple year or so-
    then, a few months back I recently started getting kernel panics, on tiger- I fist thought they were HDD related, got a new drive installed by a technician, switched to snow leopard-
    yet they continue, and they're apparently RAM related, yet what is odd is that they can be reproduced with any RAM combination involving 2 sticks- the original apple 1Gb + any of the two GB ram sticks, the 2GB ram sticks together in any slot-- it's all the same, the screen goes grey and i'm told to shut down the computer
    with one ram stick it works, this avoids the issue- but not always
    i've moved the ram around, checked the slots, reset the PRAM,yet the issue is still there.
    now i know that I should be using paired ram, and will do so in the next coming months when I can afford it- yet what has happened to make the make the MBP seemingly refuse two sticks of RAM when it didn't before ? are the two sticks dead ? or is there an issue with the slot ?
    I'd also need to know that this is not a logicboard issue if it's possible- the logic board was changed due to the NVDIA bug, so it's a year old or so-
    I'm running it on the 2GB danelec as I type, no issue, the samsung ram works as well, and so does the 1GB apple ram, in any slot, yet two slots of ram causes the kernel panic crash- the area near the ram slot also seems to get very hot-
    I ran the hardware test yesterday, booting from the tiger dvd, which was difficult (possible drive issue)
    finally managed to boot into hardware test mode (must be a superdrive issue)
    running an extended test with the 4GB of ram in there
    first pass found an error :
    4MEM/9/40 000 000 : bc13950
    running the extended testing
    extended testing (1h39 min)
    no errors found
    ran another quick test
    error
    4MEM/9/40 000 000 : 6b506C4
    another quick test :
    no trouble found
    another : no trouble found
    and a last pass : no trouble found
    but i did have two errors...
    looking the errors up online didn't give anything so far, any clue as to what might be wrong here ? the RAM used to work fine (i've been using these two sticks for over two years), the kernel panics started happening on tiger- got a new HD drive a month ago, installed snow leopard, - used disk warrior and disk utilities, reset the PRAM and did the other tests and it continues- wether i'm running the computer from the internal drive or an external firewire drive-
    running the hardware test, i also got two error messages, but on some passes only
    if i look into the RAM status through about this mac, it says it's ok - what's odd is that the hardware test found errors, but not systematically----- I'd really like to know what the error message mean, can anyone help ?
    i'm getting more and more kernel panics, unfortunately i live in France, so things are slightly less simple than they would be in other places customer servicewise- ie it might not be as simple as showing up at the new apple stores with this 2007 machine--
    I need a stable machine to work on and really can't afford repairs at the moment
    i'm really stuck with this, my finances got sucked into the last HDD upgrade (got it done by an official apple retailer, ICLG here in Paris, cost me 300 euros), and I thought things would be stable for a while since the logic board was changed (free of charge, which was a great relief) less than a year ago due to the nvdia bug- and now here I am with this--
    anyway, here's the last kernel panic report i got, thanks in advance for your help

  • Kernel Panic on iMac with Pixelated Video Issues

    One of our work iMacs has been having weird pixelate video issues recently. Sometimes previews of program windows will freeze on screen... and as you move the window around the screen "erases" this preview from the LCD... It is a 2006 24" White iMac 6,1. Now we get some Kernel Panics with the following error message. Please help me decipher it. Thanks!
