[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1800110, member: 46727"] Agree with Lisa. If that 2008 MacBook Pro had any kind of spill on it, you may as well toss it. The fact that you do not get the POST chime (Bong!) upon startup is a good sign of some type of damage. That machine if it was in good working order is only worth at the most around $75 to $100. And you might need major repairs to it that will exceed what it's worth. Sorry for such a gloomy reply but moisture damage especially on machine that old is almost always fatal. [/QUOTE]
