Half the panic logs point to the M-Audio driver.
The other half point to the VIDEO card! Not good. Try pulling that
card and making sure all the contacts are clean, etc. If you have a
diff video card you can try, that might be helpful.
Several of the crash logs show mdworker failed. It is part of
Spotlight's indexing system. The importer being used at the time of
the crash was "com.sibelius.MDImporter.score". That suggests either
a) Sibelius' importer is buggy OR b) your disk needs repairing, and
perhaps there are some corrupted files of the type that importer is
accessing.

Good. I see some of the panic logs are dated 1969 - which indicates
a power manager failure. Replacing the battery is the first step to
diagnosing that.

Normal. Duping the DNS is done create a retry on time-out lookups.
If you're having difficulties with name lookups, switch to real DSN
servers such as 4.2.2.1 and 4.2.2.2, instead of using your router's
forwarder.

Ok. Can't tell - you didn't send any system.log files.
