1.) I turn on my MBP, and everything seems fine. The start screen with Apple symbol and loading graphic appear.
2.) It seems to be taking longer than usual to load, but I don't suspect anything.
3.) The screen goes BLACK. No amount of typing, screen brightening, or holding of buttons changes this.
What could be the problem?!
I've done some research and tried this following techniques:
- Held SHIFT during startup for Safe Mode
- Held COM+ALT+P+R to reset the PRAM
- Waited until the screen goes black, "dimmed" completely and brightened once to see if I could see a very dark desktop
- Held the computer at different angles (sometimes, my laptops have gone black due to a certain degree the screen is held at, so I thought I'd try)
All result in the same thing: the computer is one, I can turn the volume up and down and the caps lock will turn off and on, but the screen is completely black. PLEASE HELP! Thanks
