Installed software: Steam, chrome, Photoshop cc 2015, mamp, some games from steam, sublime text, clean my mac. Gemini, Gemini 2.
How it started:
My computer just arrived, I was using it for 2 days with a new user (without Time Machine restore).
While using chrome in flash app, computer froze and restarted. It happened several times.
Then I was using Photoshop and mac restarted again. And after booting to OS, I sent report and just after that Mac restarted again.
After this I started to get major problems.
I followed all steps, described on Apple Support page:
— Recovery mode didn’t work. In OS X Utilities I checked if drive was fine — it was fine.
— Safe mode loaded me into my account, but OS restarted again after few seconds.
— I reseted PRAM — didn’t help.
— I tried to recover OS X. The progress bar loaded and froze at “ 5 minutes remaining" for 1.5 hours. After that I didn’t see any progress and after restarting, couldn’t load OS Utilities again.
— I tried to recover from Internet — cmd+alt+R — It loaded something, with the globe image spinning, but after that process didn’t go any further. It continues to restart with panic message.
Last option I had:
— I tried to boot from recovery partition (shift) and to install OS X el capitan from bootable USB stick. When stick is selected, nothing happens. If I select a drive with Time Machine backup, I see only Apple logo.
Please, help :-)
