kernel panic

[marklaut]

I just received a replacement computer for a defective machine. Its a brand new macbook pro. I transferred old files with time machine only to have the new machine resume a series of kernel panics that caused the replacement. The Genius Bar asked me to reload everything from scratch so as not to transfer corrupt files. I did so -- with the most up to date dmg files out there, and 4 days later had another kernel panic. I do not know what it means but have pasted it below.

Help!

Try testing each stick of ram without the other there to see if its just a bad stick

I'm thinking the same thing, but code the whole EAX reminds me of Assembly, for me it seems the system crashed on a computing mistake.

I'm going to agree. Seems like software not hardware. How many times have you got a kernel panic? First one? Same panic? If it's your first one and it is software, there's a chance that it was a fluke accident and probably won't see it again. If it's more than once, I'd start troubleshooting possible software changes and then trying a reinstall. If that doesn't help, you would then look at hardware and RAM being the first thing to check out.

Ran Tech Tool and found problem with Video RAM. Looks like a trip to the Genius Bar . . . make sense?

Well, if it happens again yes. But if you want to be sure. Run Hardware test (Full test). It'll take a while (~1 hour) but it will tell you of you have anything bad with your hardware.

hardware test

where can I find the hardware test?

 

[dukebound85]

where can I find the hardware test?

its on your restore discs

 

[jav6454]

its on your restore discs

No. Just reboot your Mac and press & hold D as soon as you hear the bong

 

[marklaut]

results

I completed the full hardware test -- it found no problems -- so I reran the tech tool and it still found video RAM problems . . .

sounds like software issue? how to proceed from here? This is a fully fresh install, with fully updated install .dmg files . . . .

Somebody else had this same KP a week or so ago. Try this:
