Kernel Panic in Lion

Follow-up to my July 16 post: I re-intstalled Lion about two weeks ago. There was one KP just after the re-installation but, using the same applications, including Safari and Mail, as before re-installation there have been no KPs since.

Started getting KP's this week -- several an hour. Tried upgrading to ML and got a KP during the download.

Upgrading a computer when it has a serious problem like kernel ppanics is futile. The problem should be fixed first before the upgrade.

Get rid of Soundflower, LogMeIn, VirtualBox and Parallels and see if that has any impact on your kernel panics.

Allan

Thanks for the reply. Restored back to when things were working fine, even with those itesm. Cleared out what you suggested, except Parallels -- I'm in need of that and it's been installed for years w/o an issue. Still getting the KP. Restoring again, as after one of the KP's the system woudn't start up all (just kept shutting down after initial chime and logo screen). Ran DU and found the HD couldn't be repaired. Not getting a good feeling about this -- the stable system is being restored, but the KP's keep coming.

What errors that could not be repaired were reported by Disk Utility?

That could be your problem which is causing the kernel panics.

Allan

Don't recall is stating anything specific other than the drive couldn't be repair, back up as many files as you can and reformat. Did that, restored from TM. Before I started back up, I ran DU again and repaired permissions and checked the drive again -- HD checked OK. Started in Safe mode out of curiousity and have been running for over an hour with no issue.

I'm thinking the drive is the issue, on my previous post, that sequence happened to me several times yesterday.

I have took my 2009 imac into the apple store bullring. They cleared the dust out the fans & its past all the tests. They offered to put a new grapic card in at a charge. But stated they can not find a fault with the grapic card. (GT 130 card) They have now ran it for two weeks without a crash. I was geting kernel panics 20 times a day since sept 2012. So maybe a complete clean install with fresh user of mavericks & a dust clear out is the answer. I would not buy a graphic card unless it fails the apple store test. I have been advised not to use any old time machine back ups, as the fault is somewhere in the softwear of my old user profile. The only none apple softwear I had installed was accountedge. So its a case of reinstalling all my old stuff untill i can recreate the kernels panics scrren shots imac restarting itself. This should show the real cause. if yours is a 2009 imac with gt130 card read thishttps://discussions.apple.com/thread/3938355?answerId=24487482022#24487482022
