Hey there,
It's my first post, so go easy on me!
So I'm not sure what happened, but on my new 13 inch Mid 2009 MacBook Pro, I got a sudden black screen.
After a few seconds I moved around on my trackpad, and the mouse cursor appeared.
I kinda panicked and held down my power button, shut down and restarted.
After restarting, I searched for a kernel panic thing "panic.log" in my finder, but nothing... so i'm hoping that means it wasn't a kernel panic.
After restarting the computer works just fine, although it has only been an hour since the incident.
I'm wondering if this is common, if this was just a weird crash, if this has happened to anyone at all?
I'm still under the complimentary 90-day apple care protection, so I'm planning on calling them tomorrow to figure this out, but was looking for some info in the meantime.
Also I looked at the console, and saw it had saved a crash report, but when I followed the path, there was none to be found (only one I had before with Microsoft Word, and in that Finder just restarted, the screen didn't go black or anything.)
Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks
