[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1175332, member: 46727"] Well, I admit that is strange. Now I'm beginning to think that maybe it is a hardware problem. It almost sounds like a GPU defect but what puzzles me is why it doesn't do it in Safe mode? It could very well be that in the absence of drivers and other processes in safe mode that the GPU runs OK until everything loads up. Do you think you can disassemble your MBP? If so, you might want to take it apart and clean it out. It could be that the fans are clogged and the vents obscured to allow cooling. Take a look at the take apart instructions at [url=http://www.ifixit.com]iFixit: The free repair manual[/url] for your model. Let us know. [/QUOTE]
