Hi,
My Dad has a 2012 Mac Mini, running Mavericks. He is a complete technophobe (refuses to use anything other than a standard Apple mouse so he doesn't have to try and understand a right click).
His computer has been running smoothly for a while, but he recently visited me (computer in luggage) and I took the base off and vacuumed out years of accumulated dust. Since then he has been having regular kernel panics. My assumption (and I was nervous about getting the vacuum out because of this) is that it is a problem with RAM that is causing this. Before I try and get my nephew to remove and reseat the RAM is there a way to determine from the logs whether it is a RAM issue that is causing the kernel panics?
Thanks,
Dave
