Q: Frequent Kernel Panics (Macbook 5,1)

Hoping somebody can help with this one.

 

I know it's a fairly common problem on this computer (late 2008 unibody Macbook), but so far one I haven't been able to resolve. Basically, it crashes on the regular and restarts to the "your computer restarted because of a problem" page.

 

Trigger processes are using Netflix in Chrome; having Pixelmator open at the same time as other applications; using any of the memory intensive tools in photoshop/pixelmator e.g., magic wand; and generally having several applications open at once.

 

Also, Chrome often crashes so that the 'aw snap' page comes up if I try to open the app. This is resolved by restarting the computer. On restart I get an error box saying "your computer restarted because of a problem, would you like to open the windows you had open before", with the option to report to Apple. This happened this morning and I have posted the crash log below.

 

I use Mavericks, I have 8gb RAM installed (supported and recognised by the system, but not Apple RAM (Crucial Mac RAM I think) - I suspect this could be the issue), and I replaced my hard drive about 6 months ago when the original failed. It has around 50% spare capacity.

 

Problem has been going for about 2 years.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
