I recently bought a used Macbook Pro 5,1 off of ebay. 15 inch unibody model late 2008. It came with Snow Leopard preinstalled and I could use it without any problems for a couple of hours. After completing all updates to 10.6.8 and stuff I got my first Kernel Panic. It was followed by 3 or 4 more during that day. At first, I thought ok, maybe the update was messed up. I did the usual procedure of repairing permissions, reseting PRAM and all the other stuff. When I finally received the Snow Leopard discs from the buyer (he had forgotten them first time...), I did a fresh install of Snow Leopard. However, this still didn't help. The amount of kernel panics I get has drastically reduced. I thought it might be the RAM, seemed likely. I talked to the buyer and he agreed to pay for the RAM, since he thought it had been in working condition when he sold it. I installed the new RAM. I used Geekbench just for fun and tried to run a benchmark, twice. It crashed both times. I thought, ok, maybe the programs fault. I went through the rest of the day without any problems. However, today, after hours of usage, I had another panic.
To eliminate the odd of a bad mountain lion upgrade causing the panics, I fresh-installed Mountain Lion after the panic. However, I'm not sure it solved the problem...
This is the most recent panic from today:
I really don't know what else I can do. Can any of you tell me what is causing the panics? What else can I try to do?
What I find interesting though, is that I got 4 or 5 panics on the first day, probably 2 on the second, and now it went down to 1 per day. Yesterday I managed through the whole evening watching youtube videos and other flash based content. Kernel panics often occur during these everyday tasks.
