MacOS – Non Stop Kernel Panics on Mavericks

kernel-panicmacbook promacos

I've been facing a really hard kernel panic problem.
I bought this macbook pro 17" about 5 months ago and at that time I had a few kernel panics but didn't event bothered cause I could still use it anyway.

A month from now I couldn't even work cause there would be kp's every 5 minutes. I'm from Brazil and there's no Genius Bar over here so I sent to the authorized support guys in my city. It stayed there for about 2 weeks and they couldn't map the problem. I was told to try and send it to a different city via mail but i'm really afraid something would happen to the machine.

The thing is I have no more warranty and the support couldn't fix it. The only way to get pass the problem is to log in safe boot, which is what i'm doing now so that I can write.

The log is below and I'm not really sure but apparently they're different every time. I still believe it can be something I can solve at home due to the fact that in safe boot it works properly for as long as I want so I don't think it's hardware related, hopefully.

There are several Apple support pages on Kernel Panics.

"When your computer spontaneously restarts or displays "Your computer restarted because of a problem."' -- http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4636

"Mac OS X: How to log a kernel panic" -- http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2546
