[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1813886, member: 46727"] The first line of the panic report tells it all: This was a common malady with that model MacBook Pro. Apple repaired them for awhile for free under a general repair recall, but has long ago expired. It's possible to repair it but you will need to find someone who can do micro soldering and is familiar with that particular problem. It could be the GPU itself or a wayward capacitor. It's also possible to run that machine using the Intel integrated GPU only while keeping the nvidia GPU off. You can probably find out how to do that by some googling. That solution may or may not work but it might be worth looking into if you don't feel like having the machine repaired. [/QUOTE]
