Q: osx 10.11.3 kernel panics

Macbook Pro early 2008 is experiencing problems starting up and appears to be having a kernel panic preventing the startup to continue. I am unable to start up in recovery mode.  I can start up in single user mode and when I exit that mode, a normal startup occurs.  Any suggestions would be appreciated. MAC OS X 10.11.3.

MacBook Pro with Retina display, OS X El Capitan (10.11.3)

    Check to see if your Mac has had a kernel panic.  If so, post it.  Use these directions:

    Computer still has an occasional kernel panic but your information will help me identify the culprit hopefully.  Thanks

    I see no evidence of any software being responsible for the kernel panic which means that it is probably a hardware issue (or, but less likely some OS bug).

     

    My guess is that the MBP's GPU is unhappy.  I suggest an appointment at an Apple store genius bar for a definitive evaluation It will be FREE but they will not offer to repair your MBP due to the age.

     

    Ciao.

    Will do. Thanks for your help!  It may be time to replace the machine.
