Daily Kernel Panics

Hey guys,


I'm on a Mid 2011 21.5-inch iMac (a 2.8 GHz Intel Core i7) running OS X 10.7.5.
It's Kernel Panicing at least twice daily - making it essentially a useless pile of time sponge.


It's been this way for ages - I just thought I was overloading it with Video Editing and Music Recording demands. I've reinstalled Lion several times (including complete Drive wipes), removed third part drivers (including my Audio Interface) - and it's still dying all the time.


Can anyone help me sort this out so it runs properly?


Here's the latest Kernel Panic - plenty more to offer up if more info needed.


Cheers - Octagonwrong

Hey Octagonwrong,


When it comes to kernel panics, it can be tricky and also an in depth process to isolate and resolve the issue. For example, the kernel panic that you provided shows that Skype was the reason why you had one.


BSD process name corresponding to current thread: Skype


Check out the article below to get you started with troubleshooting the issue further.
