Mid 2010 Macbook Pro "Your Computer was restarted because of a problem"

Hi guys,


Ever since I upgraded to Mountain Lion my Mid 2010 Macbook Pro has been randomly restarting itself and showing a grey sceen with the text "Your computer was restarted because of a problem."


I've googled and read all sorts of things saying remove everything from Login Items, it still happens. Everything I've tried has done nothing. Just in case it helps, here is my latest kernel panic log from Console:

It looks as if you may have the dreaded 'bad GPU' that shipped with some versions of the 2010 model. See - http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4088?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US.


Use the "Contact" Apple techs link and see if your model may be one affected. If it is, you'll qualify for a free logic board replacement from Apple.


Good luck,


Clinton

Hi Clinton,


Thanks for the help. I've seen threads about that "bad GPU" as well, and it certainly sounds like what may be the case. Unfortunately, Apple wants to charge me $19 over the phone to even ATTEMPT to talk to me about my issue. And the closest Apple store is 45 minutes away. I guess I'll have to drive there this weekend or something...
