'Evening, everyone.
I've got a customer's Macbook Pro here and I'm not as familiar with Apple products as I used to be. My first idea was memory--but it doesn't appear to be a memory issue.
If I start the machine, the white LED on the lid release button goes bright white for about one-two seconds and then fades to a dim glow. It does this even with no RAM in the machine at all. It looks like there should be an LED on the power button, but I don't get an LED. The LED on the power jack shows green.
I'm pretty sure the customer's looking at a bad mainboard here, but I'd like a second opinion since, as I said, I'm not as familiar with Mac hardware as I used to be.
Edit:
With a little more digging, I found it's a Macbook Pro A1260, and it's got an nVidia chipset. Therefore, I've come to the conclusion that it's got DV6000 syndrome.
