Constant Kernel Panics Black Macbook

Hi I recently acquired a black 2007-2008~ black macbook and I'm having issues figuring out what the issues are with this machine. Without fail, this macbook will popup the "You need to restart your computer" message at random points, though typically I'm unable to even get it to boot to the login screen before it tells me it's hit a kernel panic.


That being said, I did manage to get it to stay working long enough to email myself the crash log from one of the most recent crashes.


I consider myself pretty computer literate, but I can't find anything to get this to work. Also, I've attempted runing the AHT (Holding 'D' key on startup), but I haven't been able to get it to run. I've tried pulling the disc, wiping it, installing all the necessary programs on a nearly identical macbook, but nothing has seemed to work.


I've swapped the ram, keyboard, and airport card into another confirmed working macbook and have had no issues with crashes.


Please help 😟

Regarding the AHT, what does this mean

I've tried pulling the disc, wiping it, installing all the necessary programs on a nearly identical macbook, but nothing has seemed to work.

AHT is on, I believe disc 2 of the original install set that shipped with the mac. If you're using discs from a nearly identical macbook they won't work.
