[QUOTE="usagora, post: 1811555, member: 60390"] Have you tried disconnecting everything except the power cable and booting in safe mode? (press and hold SHIFT key immediately after startup tone and release when you see Apple logo)? [url]https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201262[/url] If the issue doesn't occur in safe mode, that might indicate a software issue vs. hardware. Doing a clean install of macOS might also be worth a shot as a last resort. I'm not sure if a mid-2012 MacBook Pro would be supported by Apple anymore, and even if they do, I imagine a fix might be more expensive than it is worth given the computer's age, but you might want to contact Apple if the issue persists. Doesn't look good. [/QUOTE]
