15" MBP Retina, restarts at random. Sometimes when I or it restarts all my TrackPad setting are delete/reset, almost like I have bad NVRAM. Also my screen wont turn ON if I reset NVRAM by holding Comand Optoin R P.. After a nvram reset, laptop turns on with the screen OFF, I have to put the computer to sleep and then wake up the computer for the screen to come ON. I think its this causing it: com.bresink.driver.BRESINKx86Monitoring Problem is that extension is NOT in folder: /System/Library/Extensions Where else could this extension be? I need to delete it and see if that,s the problem. What I've done: - deleted all unecessary apps that could cause crashes. - after nvram reset tried starting up in disk select mode by holding option but still screen OFF - tried booting up in safe mode by holding shift but still sreene is OFF - tried booting up in restore more and the screen is still OFF Only way to get the screen ON is to put computer to sleep and wake it up. Also if the laptop is at SLEEP for a long time say over night, in the morning when I wake it up it has Kernel PANIC and has this crash report: Thu Mar 7 18:54:09 2013 panic(cpu 2 caller 0xffffff7f9123e3e2): "AGC GPU REGISTER RESTORE FAILED : rdar://7254528"@/SourceCache/AppleGraphicsControl/AppleGraphicsControl-3.2.13/src/AppleMuxControl/../logSupport/../AppleMuxControl/kext/AGCPowerManagement.cpp:1044 Backtrace (CPU 2), Frame : Return Address 0xffffff8102febe50 : 0xffffff800f01d626 0xffffff8102febec0 : 0xffffff7f9123e3e2 0xffffff8102febf00 : 0xffffff7f912409eb 0xffffff8102febf20 : 0xffffff800f44928a 0xffffff8102febf60 : 0xffffff800f03dcde 0xffffff8102febfb0 : 0xffffff800f0b2957 Kernel Extensions in backtrace: com.apple.driver.AppleMuxControl(3.2.13)[19DA76AB-C000-3FD7-B309-624A4031385D]@0xffffff7f91233000->0xffffff7f91244fff dependency: com.apple.driver.AppleBacklightExpert(1.0.4)[1D0BB11E-7D71-34CF-ACC3-57DF01CADA08]@0xffffff7f9122e000 dependency: com.apple.iokit.IOPCIFamily(2.7.3)[1D668879-BEF8-3C58-ABFE-FAC6B3E9A292]@0xffffff7f8f644000 dependency: com.apple.driver.AppleGraphicsControl(3.2.13)[A87A5EA8-7E2F-3F6E-8DBC-878014A14B67]@0xffffff7f9121a000 dependency: com.apple.iokit.IOACPIFamily(1.4)[A35915E8-C1B0-3C0F-81DF-5515BC9002FC]@0xffffff7f9016c000 dependency: com.apple.iokit.IONDRVSupport(2.3.6)[6A1A36AC-2F79-34AF-A162-A97FE16705E3]@0xffffff7f8f6c5000 dependency: com.apple.iokit.IOGraphicsFamily(2.3.6)[2E420A99-8DBF-3C1D-AE39-75B7EE4D5C1E]@0xffffff7f8f682000 BSD process name corresponding to current thread: kernel_task Mac OS version: 12C3012 Kernel version: Darwin Kernel Version 12.2.1: Thu Oct 18 16:32:48 PDT 2012; root:xnu-2050.20.9~2/RELEASE_X86_64 Kernel UUID: 0AFA55FD-872F-3BBE-8630-214EB586A16D Kernel slide: 0x000000000ee00000 Kernel text base: 0xffffff800f000000 System model name: MacBookPro10,1 (Mac-C3EC7CD22292981F) System uptime in nanoseconds: 680982745161 last loaded kext at 4551991234: com.apple.driver.AudioAUUC 1.60 (addr 0xffffff7f909f2000, size 32768) last unloaded kext at 155098004915: com.apple.iokit.IOEthernetAVBController 1.0.2b1 (addr 0xffffff7f901d3000, size 28672) loaded kexts: com.bresink.driver.BRESINKx86Monitoring 9.0 com.apple.driver.AudioAUUC 1.60 com.apple.driver.AppleHWSensor 1.9.5d0 com.apple.iokit.IOBluetoothSerialManager 4.1.2f9 com.apple.filesystems.autofs 3.0 com.apple.driver.AGPM 100.12.81 com.apple.driver.ApplePlatformEnabler 2.0.6d1 com.apple.driver.X86PlatformShim 1.0.0 com.apple.driver.AppleMikeyHIDDriver 122 com.apple.driver.AppleHDA 2.3.5fc10 com.apple.driver.AppleUpstreamUserClient 3.5.10 com.apple.driver.AppleMikeyDriver 2.3.5fc10 com.apple.iokit.BroadcomBluetoothHCIControllerUSBTransport 4.1.2f9 .... .... ....rest are all apple extensions
I found the extention in the /System/Library/Startupitems folder!! Now I have to see if I'll get a Kernal Panic crash again. I'm hoping that was the problem
FIXED!!! For anyone in the future laptop need these drivers deleted for startup folder com.bresink.driver.BRESINKx86Monitoring and simple SMC restart (google mac SMC reset). 2 days worth of work to figure something so simple out, can't believe on one here suggested this to me.
