Ugh, wife and I were watching a video and suddenly a short "zoop!" sound and then...nothing. Screen goes black. Will not restart--well, the fan will start up sometimes--but other than that, no boot up. We have to rescue the data because her thesis is on the HD and she's in big trouble if we can't get it back.
Relevant facts:
15" MPB (2.17 GHz, I think)
1.5 years old
1 Gig RAM
Nothing new installed recently, although she did the auto update for QT the other day.
It's no longer under warranty, unfortunately. Thanks in advance for any help you can offer, including suggestions for data recovery. A dead Mac I can replace, the thesis, however, not so much.
