[QUOTE="caliope77, post: 872092, member: 109729"] I am at my wit's end to fix my iBook G4's recurring kernel panic problem. I've tried many the suggestions that have been brought up on this forum. Background: First of all, nothing new is going on with this ancient, but lucky iBook. No new RAM, nothing. No exciting days out in the park, no new friends, etc. MAC OS X Version 10.4.11 1.33 Gz PowerPC G4, 1 G DDR SDRAM. This is the first time in the four years I've had it that I came across a kernel panic, and now it's happening all the time. Weirdly, they happen soon and sooner after the reboot to the point I barely sign in then it crashes before I open anything. So far: ran disk utility, repaired permissions. Still crashes. SMART: verified. Reset PRAM Used FSCK, said the disk was ok. Before FSCK, could not start is safe mode. After, can start in safe mode, but if start regularly, get kernel panic (oh why, dear God). Previously, when the little window came up saying that MAC OS had crashed unexpectedly and asked if I wanted to report, clicking on report brought up no window or log. So nothing to add from that. Oh, and the memory is a big tight, but a full 1/4 of the space is still available. Any suggestions are highly highly appreciated. I will starve without the laptop, literally. And that does not look good. --- Panic log is as follows for the most recent crash (thank you Onyx!): -- Fri Jul 10 16:50:21 2009 panic(cpu 0 caller 0x000A8C00): Uncorrectable machine check: pc = 00000000006E3038, msr = 0000000000149030, dsisr = 42000000, dar = 00000000E07C7000 AsyncSrc = 0000000000000000, CoreFIR = 0000000000000000 L2FIR = 0000000000000000, BusFir = 00000000000000000 Latest stack backtrace for cpu 0: Backtrace; 0x000954F8 0x00095A10 0x00026898 0x000A8C00 0x000A7E90 0x000ABB80 Proceeding back via exception chain: Exception state (sv=0x30F16000) PC=0x006E3038; MSR=0x00149030; DAR=0xE07C7000; DSISR=0x42000000; LR=0x006E2C10; R1=0x178A3C70; XCP=0x00000008 (0x200 - Machine check) Backtrace: 0x00004278 0x0070EEC8 0x0070A828 0x0071F094 0x002D1B8C 0x002D0A54 0x000A9714 Kernel loadable modules in backtrace (with dependencies): com.apple.iokit.AppleAirPort2(405.1)@0x6e0000 dependency: com.apple.iokit.IONetworkingFamily(1.5.0)@0x60d000 dependency: com.apple.iokit.IOPCIFamily(1.7)@0x48d000 PC=0x00000000; MSR=0x0000D030; DAR=0x00000000; DSISR=0x00000000; LR=0x00000000; R1=0x00000000; XCP=0x00000000 (Unknown) -- Could it be my airport?/ I tried to google the gibberish above but couldn't figure it out.
