[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1279202, member: 56379"] So to simplify things (if I understand correctly)...this MacBook works fine with the OEM drive...but doesn't work "fine" with the upgraded HD (you get the "4 language" kernel panic)? If this is the case...seems a bit strange...assuming that both HD's are good. The thing with kernel panics is...sometimes kernel panics can occur as the computer boots (just seconds into the process of starting up)...or they can occur 15, 30, or an hour later (basically they occur randomly). What I'm saying is...if both hard drives are good...are you sure the MacBook was "tested" long enough with the OEM drive to rule out any possibility of getting a kernel panic with the OEM drive? If you're 100% sure that the MacBook experiences no kernel panics with the OEM drive...and it does experience a kernel panic with the 2nd "upgraded" drive...then the logical conclusion is the "upgraded" drive is bad. Thus stick with the OEM drive...or get a 3rd (good) drive to upgrade the MacBook with. HTH, - Nick [/QUOTE]
