[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1809794, member: 46727"] Welcome to our forums! Send it back and get a refund. That's the classic symptom of a bad GPU which a great many of the 17" MacBook Pros have been prone to. There really is no permanent repair for it even when replacing the logic board since it will fail again. For several years Apple had a free recall on those models and would replace the logic board without cost. But that recall program is long over. Send the machine back, get a refund, and buy something newer. Sorry for the bad news. [/QUOTE]
