[QUOTE="zacster, post: 1622932, member: 17931"] My daughter's MBP (2010 I think) has gone grey screen on bootup. I had installed an SSD from OWC in it over the summer and I was wondering if that is likely the culprit. I haven't been able to look at it yet as she is away in school, but coming home today. And if the SSD is the culprit what is the likelihood of being able to recover files from it? She of course has no recent backup but has about a thousand photos on it from her freshman year. I still have the original hard drive so I'll give that a try and see if it boots, in which case I'd assume the SSD is fried. It is under 6 months old, so I'm assuming I have warranty coverage on replacement. [/QUOTE]
