[QUOTE="jwfuller, post: 1747852, member: 389150"] Hello all, I am new here. Okay.. Well last August when finishing up my summer class my mac died and wouldn't reboot got the green screen etc. Took it to the apple store and they tested and said logic board was bad. Well they wanted 1240 to fix it. I obviously had no intention of paying that amount of money to fix a computer that old. Well i was able to find a logic board elsewhere for substantially less. Now I know some here probably think I had no business replacing the logic board on my own, but im not here to debate that, just seeking info as to what could be wrong with it now. Well after replacing the logic board and upgrading to sierra, I noticed I couldn't "right click" on the track pad because it was protruding up higher that the left side. I assumed the battery was bad so I replaced that as well. After replacing the battery I had difficulty even getting the computer to turn on, well it finally did and now I have noticed it is SUPER SLOW, looking at activity monitor: kernal task is constantly using like 700-900 % of the CPU, the CPU load is pretty much full, and it is using ~500 MB of Memory. For anyone that has any helpful information thank you so much! Im obviously in over my head. [/QUOTE]
