[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1404682, member: 56379"] Mentioning that this is a school computer & you just got it last year...puts a totally different spin on things. If this is a "school computer" which you are required to use...why isn't the repair/troubleshooting being handled thru your school? I guess without more details...I don't totally understand the situation. What I'm saying is. If you want additional help from folks on Mac-Forums...it doesn't facilitate things if the computer is sitting on a repair technicians workbench somewhere. If we give you ideas to try..how can you try them...if you don't have the computer in your possession??;) You NEED to decide how you want to handle this. Either you let the professionals diagnose & complete the repairs...or get the computer back...and see if any of the ideas from Mac-Forum members helps with the problem. I mean come on...let's be honest. You have an expensive less than 1 year-old computer that you dropped...some stuff isn't working on it...thus you've got to realize no matter what...it's going to takes some $$$ to get this computer running again. Are you capable & willing to do the repairs yourself? If not...then the professionals need to do it. If it truly is the logic board...that's going to be BIG BUCKS. If (as you mentioned)...the power button isn't even working...this would mean to me that this computer cannot even be turned on to begin troubleshooting.:( Your call, - Nick [/QUOTE]
