[QUOTE="chscag, post: 889461, member: 46727"] I'm afraid there isn't much you can do about the dead pixels. The cure for that is a new display. Dead pixels are not caused by a logic board defect. As for the non working Firewire ports, run the Apple Hardware Test on your machine to see if it picks up on them: [URL="http://www.thexlab.com/faqs/aht.html"]Link[/URL] The Apple AHT will sometimes miss a hardware defect so keep trouble shooting. Also check out this thread in another forum and try what he tried. [URL="http://forums.macosxhints.com/archive/index.php/t-78858.html"]Link[/URL] Also try repairing permissions. Regards. [/QUOTE]
