Mid 2010 Macbook Pro Kernal Panic
Hello,
My MacBook Pro (15-inch, Mid 2010) with 4GB RAM running on Yosemite has been restarting because of kernal panics for the past two years.
Initially the Panics began while using Photoshop CS6 and Final Cut 7, then previewing files caused the same issue and now panic loops are a regular occurance. The problem became much more pronounced 2 months ago when I used photoshop extensively, for some time I had been using my computer mainly for watching Netflix.
Below is the Panic Report. Is this a software or a hardware issue? I am aware that my computer is very old and much of the software out of date (I would subscribe to CC but it's out of my price range!). If I need to get a new computer so be it but if there is a way of resolving the I am very keen to hear it - I am very fond of my workhorse.
