Q: MacBook Pro 2008 crashes constantly with Yosemite
Hi!
I'm running an early 2008 15" MacBook Pro with 2,4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor and 4 GB memory, and I just installed Yosemite 10.10.2 as well as the 4 GB memory and a new Samsung 840 EVO SSD 250 GB hard drive and now my computer crashes frequently, seemingly at random. It freezes, for a second, then shuts down and starts up again and this is the report it provides once it has restarted:

I don't understand the report at all and I couldn't find another topic with the same problem, so if anyone has any ideas what is wrong, if there's something I could fix, I'd really appreciate the help! Before the upgrade my MBP was running OS X 10.5.8 and after replacing the old hard drive with the new SSD drive and upgrading the 2 GB memory to 4 GB I first installed OS X 10.6.8 and only then downloaded Yosemite.
I'll gladly provide more information if needed!
Thank you,
H
MacBook Pro, OS X Yosemite (10.10.2)

I would suggest that you replace the new RAM with the original RAM and see if the panics stop. You can also test the new RAM with one module at a time in each slot.
Note that you have a MBP that was built with a faulty GPU though the report does not indicate that it is the cause of the panic report:

Here is a trouble shooting guide that may prove to be useful:
