[QUOTE="austinpn, post: 900973, member: 119027"] So I had to deal with this snow installation bug this may not happen to u but I got stuck at a black screen after the upgrade but there is a easy way around it… I have a first gen intel macbook pro and tried to upgrade my leopard to snow… the install seemed to go well mainly worked in a dark screen after about an hour all I could see was a black screen and I was stuck nothing would let me move forward a reboot would just stop at the black screen… it turned out that the install dimmed the screen brightness and after snow was install it rebooted and I was stuck in the dark… I read somewhere that if I use a flashlight I can see whats going on u can see in the pic below that I found myself stuck at the login screen… then I logged in and I turned the brightness back up… maybe this bug effects certain mbp cos not everyone is complaining about the upgrade but ive seen other people getting stuck with the same prob… Here are the pics I took with my iphone: 1- snow when it started for the first time was completely dark [url]http://www.austinphotonet.com/arc/other/snow/snow_1.jpg[/url] 2- after i look with the flashlight i see the login screen. [url]http://www.austinphotonet.com/arc/other/snow/snow_2.jpg[/url] 3- after login i turned the brightness up and everything just fine [url]http://www.austinphotonet.com/arc/other/snow/snow_3.jpg[/url] link to the post concerning this problem: [URL="http://www.mac-forums.com/forums/os-x-operating-system/164642-snow-leopard-install-failed-my-macbook-pro-how-i-fixed.html#links"]http://www.mac-forums.com/forums/os-x-operating-system/164642-snow-leopard-install-failed-my-macbook-pro-how-i-fixed.html#links[/URL] [/QUOTE]
