[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1616804, member: 46727"] The kernel panic report shows several things which could be troublesome. Let's try something first before going any deeper. Boot your MacBook Pro in safe boot mode (hold down shift key when restarting) and let it run in safe boot mode for several hours to see if it panics or not. We need to determine if it's hardware related or software that's causing the panics. The slowdowns and heat you're experiencing could be due to the age of the machine - maybe dust building up inside and the amount of stuff you're running. Two things are suspect in the panic report: VirtualBox and your graphics hardware. The GPU in your machine is known to be flaky and has been the subject of an Apple recall and extended warranty on certain models. Let us know by posting back to this same thread. [/QUOTE]
