UNQUOTE

I ran installer then went to disk utility and pushed disk repair. it ran and indicated in green that no repairs were necessary. i then went to startup disk and only the Diks and network startup showed up but no hard drive. i also open computer to make sure was not wet muddy due to leak in cooling system but all was dry..
HELP ...
 
It's unable to find a driver, looks like an important system driver. I suspect a corrupt OS. You may need to back up your important data (pictures, etc., everything in your Home folder) and reinstall the operating system. Do you have the discs that came with your machine?

Another possibility is a hardware issue (defective RAM or something else), but the panic dump seems to indicate a defective OS install.

Good luck and let us know how it goes.
