[QUOTE="cwa107, post: 1275820, member: 24098"] Never heard of the blinking cursor being caused by activation issues. That's a new one to me. In my experience, the blinking cursor means the EFI is having a hard time with the boot loader. Most often this is fixed by zapping the PRAM. Turn your machine off, turn it back on and press and hold Command + Option + P + R. Continue holding until the machine chimes twice, then release. See if that does the trick. [/QUOTE]
