There is a good chance you have a 3rd party kernel extension that is not El Capitan compatible


See if you have panic files. If so, please post at least one, or several

You might also post, in another reply, the EtreCheck output

You can try booting into Safe mode, and see if that changes things. This would be a very good indication that it is a 3rd party kernel extension at fault.
