[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1683339, member: 46727"] I agree with Nick. That particular model was known for GPU problems and the warranty on it was extended by Apple at one time. However, that is long over. If it is the nvidia chipset (GPU) that's causing the kernel panics, the only cure is a new logic board and that would be an uneconomical repair. It won't matter which version of OS X is installed as it will do the same thing. Hopefully your friend didn't pay very much for that machine. [/QUOTE]
