[QUOTE="Michale32086, post: 1592251, member: 143602"] SUCCESS!!!!! :D I disassembled the motherboard.. Not a fun chore, but not nearly as bad as I thought it was going to be... Noticed that this unit had a Video Card so I was able to get by without doing a full motherboard reflow.. Put the Vid Card on the reflow and viola.... It's booting up crisp and clear now.. WOOT!! :D Going to recheck the HD and see if my futzin' around might have "fixed" that... If not, what would be a good MAC OS to put on this machine? It's 4GB, 3.06ghz Dual Core with a 1TB HD... Thanx for the reply, chscag.. Much appreciated... [/QUOTE]
