[QUOTE="lclev, post: 1790272, member: 307555"] This is a known issue with the model you have. Apple did have a recall but it has expired - unfortunately. Yes, it can fail that fast. I have one of the same model and so far the only issue is the occasional one pixel wide stripe of pink that runs vertically. It comes and goes which is very weird but it is still working. But I have a friend whose 2011 MBP just died and the graphics card failed. One day it worked and the next it was dead. I really don't think the cost of repair will be worth it on a seven year old model. Just my opinion. Lisa [/QUOTE]
