[QUOTE="Marsupian, post: 990115, member: 142111"] My MBP was stepped on last month and the screen was totaled. Out of warranty. It could still boot for a while but recently it died midway. Hard drive still hummed but clicked off before it could boot. Dismantled it and found no obvious problems. I am very inexperienced so obvious for me is really obvious. So long story short, I got it to boot only after putting pressure on the board directly to the right of the RAM. (RAM works fine btw.) Any way any help would be great. [/QUOTE]
