Ok so last night i had my macbook set up in my room just on and i went downstairs and came back up and it was frozen. This is definitely not normal so i restarted it and now it won't boot past the white screen.
The chime plays and then it sits at the white screen. I tried booting off a bootable external hd holding the alt key when i started it and the mouse came up to select the disk i wanted to boot from but nothing came up. So i tried putting my snow leopard install disk to boot from that and it did the same thing, came up with the mouse but no disks to boot to.
I then proceeded to try and put the external hd into my macbook so see if the drive was confusing it but yet again just the white screen.
I have a feeling the logic board died but i really hope it didnt?
Does anyone have ANY ideas? I'm planning on taking it to an apple repair shop so they can do a hardware test on it to see what it is.
Feel free to email me at [email protected], message me here, or just comment back.
Thanks in advance,
Jeremy
