[QUOTE="Marrk, post: 1242892, member: 193327"] In the last month, I have gotten two restart notices from my OS. In other words, my MacBook Pro 13" crashed twice. Today, AppleCare told me it was a "kernel panic" that was causing the crashes, though they had no idea why my kernels were panicking. One thing they had me do was "safe start" the computer, which means you push the "Power" button and let go, then hold down the "Shift" key. After everything rebooted, they had me do a simple "Restart." What exactly does a "safe start" do? How much damage does a kernel panic do to the hardware/software? [/QUOTE]
