The screen would just go black and restart with the message "Your computer restarted because of a problem", It didn't happen very often, about once every month or two, up until August, about a month after upgrading to 10.9.4, then the Panics started to happen more frequently.

Deleting the .plist containing "windows", disabling the automatic graphics card switching. I have ran the hardware test on loop overnight, which came up with nothing.

[QUOTE="Chris_Music, post: 1624310, member: 139994"] Dear Fellow Mac Users I realise this is in the Hardware section, but seeing as it is about software and hardware, I thought it would be acceptable. [B]The Specs:[/B] MacBook Pro 2010 (6.1) i7 2.66ghz with an NVIDIA GeForce GT 330M graphics card and 8gb of crucial RAM. [B]The Problem(s):[/B] In February of this year I took the plunge and upgraded to Mavericks. All went well, until (from what i can see from my saved logs) my upgrade to 10.9.3 at the end of May. My first saved Kernel Panic log was dated 26/06/2014. The screen would just go black and restart with the message "Your computer restarted because of a problem", It didn't happen very often, about once every month or two, up until August, about a month after upgrading to 10.9.4, then the Panics started to happen more frequently. My logs state that it happened 2 weeks from the 2/8/2014 then every week from the 31/8/2014, then twice a week after that, Im now on 10.9.5. Now I am at a point where it can happen up to 15 times a day, depending on what I am doing on the MacBook Pro. I have a Mac Pro desktop which I use solely for Music and 3D rendering, and I used to use the MacBook Pro for everything else, including photoshop, but now I am having to pretty much use the Mac Pro for everything (something I don't really want to do), and to the point where I have the MacBook Pro on, purely to be linked up via LAN to the Mac Pro to access and copy files across. I should also mention that I use an external display with my MacBook Pro, something which has been said to increase the Kernel Panic frequencies, but It seems to happen almost as often when I use the MacBook Pro screen or the external display. I have tried, many, many things. Deleting the .plist containing "windows", disabling the automatic graphics card switching. I have ran the hardware test on loop overnight, which came up with nothing. The only thing I haven't tried doing is a clean install, which I will probably have to try if I can't get it fixed from any suggestions on here. [B]When does the problem occur?: [/B] This is the strange part, at first it seemed completely random, but as it's now happening everyday, I have started to notice certain patterns. [B]Guaranteed to give Kernel Panics: [/B] Looking at photo albums on Facebook. Searching under 'Image' in Google Search. Switching to list view in finder, then opening up a file branch by clicking the arrow. Sites that are very image orientated. It seems to not like multiple images on the screen. Its funny because the more graphically intense the program, the less chance of a kernel panic. I have used Photoshop for hours with no problem, then I will go online to look up something and BAM a kernel panic. I did look into the Logic Board Problem, as some of the symptoms are there, but most of the problems people have had are the graphics getting mangled and not being able to turn on their computers, while mine will just suddenly restart and give the error message: "Your computer restarted because of a problem. Press a key or wait a few seconds to continue starting up". [B]Here is a copy of my latest kernel panic log from today:[/B] Anonymous UUID: 29D0A7A7-3A47-E3C6-4B2F-49659E78678F Mon Dec 1 09:28:43 2014 panic(cpu 2 caller 0xffffff7f97feaf7c): "GPU Panic:

have 34 separate Kernel Panic Logs that I have saved in textedit. There have been 100s more, but as it happens so often, I couldn't be bothered to save every single one. If anybody needs be to upload any more logs, please ask and I will upload them. Thank you in advance! [B]My Second Issue: [/B] Very High temperatures from my MacBook Pro. I always used my Macbook Pro on a Kensington stand, not just because it raised the Macbook Pro up to eye level (before I switched to external display), it also allowed for better cooling of the computer. I did notice the Fan would come on quite a lot from general use, but from what I read online, using an external display will make it run hotter, and their advice was to keep it on a stand, which is what I was doing already, so I thought nothing of it. Then when the Kernel Panics starting happening more frequently, there was mention of high temperatures causing problems with the thermal paste on the logic board. So I installed iStats Menus to monitor the temperatures, and to my amazement, just after the computer was turned on, it was already at 75-85C (167-185F for you americans ;) ) and When I had used it for a while, just browsing online and listening to music, the temperature had shot up to almost 100C (212F), I then tried it with Photoshop and it hit 106C (223F) and stayed there, even though the fan speeds said 6000rpm, which I believe is their maximum speed! The room wasn't particularly warm (being in Britain :P) and it had good ventilation. I opened up the MacBook Pro to check for dust build up, and there was a finest of fine layer of dust inside, no hair balls like I used to get on my old PC laptops. Never the less, I gave it a blow with my air compressor to get rid of any dust. I also purchased a new laptop stand (Griffin GC16034 Elevator Desktop Stand), which not only elevates it off the ground, but also has barely any contact with the computer, so plenty of ventilation. Made absolutely no difference to the temperatures what so ever. This cannot be right that even with the upmost optimum conditions (aside from living in a fridge) it still puts out such high temperatures! I installed SMC Fan Control and set the default speed to 3500rpm, and the start up temperature is now 64C (147F), and usually goes up to 85C (185F) for web browsing, but still hits 106C (223F) with the more intense programs. It usually stays around 45-55C (113-131F) when I am just listening to music with the screen off. Its a world away from the Temperatures in my Mac Pro (granted its a desktop so will be far superior with dissipating heat), but when running the beast at full speed with some 3D rendering over night, the highest temperature it hit was 45C (113F) and normally runs between 20-30C (68-86F). I have never (touch wood) had a major problem with my Mac Pro, and its a 2008 model! Its not right that I should be having such problems with a Mac! I switched to Mac after being tired of the constant problems I used to have with all my windows computers, (had one Acer laptop that i had to have replaced 4 times in 6 months!). I don't really want to have to take it to Apple, as its almost a year out of its warranty. But If thats literally the last resort then I guess I will have to! Hopefully you guys can help me! I have tried to be as detailed and thorough as possible, save you having to ask me lots of follow up questions, but please ask me if theres something I have missed out! Thank you in advance!
