[QUOTE="IvanLasston, post: 1491137, member: 145676"] Disclaimer - without actually seeing the cable these are all just guesses Depending on what broke - you very well could have destroyed the entire bus. What it sounds like was a Power/Ground short -> hence the overload warning. You do that enough and it will cause all kinds of problems. If it was a PG short - then you could have damaged a power chip on the bus. If you have something that is repeatable - I'd recommend taking your machine into an Apple Store and have them take a look at it. Edit - too slow [/QUOTE]
