I've been getting repeated kernel panics playing World of Warcraft on my Mac with all the settings turned up. I am using a new Mac Pro 2.8 with 8GB of after-market RAM (Transintl), factory OS with all updates applied, using 27 inch Dell Ultrasharp monitor. Also, I'm having absolutely no problems playing the game in Windows. No hardware issues otherwise to report; just playing Mac Wow. If anyone could help me I'd really appreciate it.

Here is the error log (got a couple, all seem to be same in structure, just different numbers):

I would post these on the Mac Support forums on worldofwarcraft.com

the tech over there are really helpful.

Just curious, when you have a kernel panic, a screen pops up to let you know, right? I personally have never had one so i wouldnt know.

Then to retrieve the log i would go to the library>log>.panic log?

Hope this helps
 
this is God's way of telling you to stop playing WoW. Be grateful for getting your life back.
