Have you tried making sure that the card is properly seated? My original PB 12" would do a kernel panic if I picked it up by the left front corner. Finally read somewhere that the problem was a loose card. I took it out and put it back in firmly. All was good for several months. Then, all the knocking about I gave the poor PB loosened it up again. Repeat procedure.
