[QUOTE="thomas998, post: 1006006, member: 111388"] In addition to a logic/motherboard your macbook also has a little board that does the battery/power work. It is in addition to the logic/motherboard.. its about the size of a half-dollar. If it goes bad you can have the issues you are talking about, the cost of one is about 20 dollars plus whatever you have to pay someone to put it in. BUT, I would strongly suggest you write your computer off. If someone just coaxed the graphics card back to life and didn't do anything to address the juice on the logic/motherboard it will not last. Odds are the logic/motherboard will eventually die from the juice on it. It might last a week... it might last a couple of months, but the left over juice will continue to corrode the metal inside and it will give up the ghost sooner or later. The only real solution was to replace the parts that got juiced. [/QUOTE]
