[QUOTE="cwa107, post: 1114027, member: 24098"] Frequent Kernal Panics are usually indicative of a hardware problem. Disk Utility's Verify/Repair Disk and Verify/Repair Permissions corrects issues with the Filesystem, but it can not correct a hardware problem. Start by running the Apple Hardware Test (as described [URL="http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1509"]here[/URL]) and let us know how you make out. Since the AHT is not always great about detecting HDD failures, you might also want to download and run the SMART Utility (available [URL="http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/system_disk_utilities/smartutility.html"]here[/URL]).
