[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1615535, member: 56379"] If we were just talking about some performance issues (perceived slowness)...I think that there could be some stuff for us to look into. But looking at your photo...this siuation is much more serious. Could be the graphics hardware going or gone bad...or maybe an overheating issue. It's most likely not a problem of the computer trying to drive the display. Are the MacBooks fan/fans sounding really loud (high rpms)? If so...maybe the inside of the computer is dirty...blocking cool air flow...or maybe the fan is not operating properly. This is a long shot idea to explain the graphics situation...but worth looking into before completely calling this computer a goner! - Nick [/QUOTE]
