Kernel Panic Error.. Help

[YahonMaizosz]

My MacBook Pro would constantly have this kernel panic like once every 3-4 days. Sometimes it could even happen twice a day.

Here is the kernel report:

Anything I can do to fix it?

Thank You

Seems like coreservicesd is the one which causes this.

Don't really know what this service does but you could do quite a bit before thinking about reinstalling.

Repair permissions, empty caches, run Daily, Weekly and Monthly scripts.

You could try to start up in safe boot and see how it goes, or log into a different( Or make new) User account and see if it happens there.

You could also run Apple Hardware Test to see if there are hardware problems.

If nothing helps reinstall, or try to install on a USB disk and see what it does, if it runs well the OS on the boot disk is somehow corrupted.

Edit: Not much to find about coreservicesd:

coreservicesd

Core Services daemon. Core Services is the Mac OS X system layer that lies above the core operating system and below the services, frameworks, and libraries used in application development.

Thanks for your comment.. I'm thinking of upgrading the current OS "Leopard" to Mountain Lion.

Do you think the problem will persist?

One more thing, how do you run the Hardware Test you suggested?

Thank You.

coreservicesd is a generic marker because the process does so many things. It's like saying your panic was caused by the kernel itself.
Parallels and Google Fusefs should be looked at as Fuse has panic'd lots of Mac's in the past being a lower level storage filesystem.

It should be on one of the disks which came with your mac, if not you can find it on Apple's site.
But, it's probably your OS causing it, and the post below could possible be where you have to look.
If you upgrade to ML it could go away, it depends if your HW is OK, if it is it should solve the problem.

Is there a way to see which processes uses coreservicesd?
I tried to in Activity Monitor but does not tell me much.
I also read on Apple's Dev. site it used to be process Manager before and if that's the case lots of processes uses it.
