Hi! I have an MacBook Pro, 15 inch. When i start it, the starting sound appears with a white screen for 2 seconds. After 2 seconds of white screen, the screen goes black and dont turn on after. The Computer is still on though, harddrive spinning and also the fan. I’ve tried to reset SMC and NVRAM/PRAM, but doesnt help. I think it might be that the computer goes into sleep straight away, or thinks it should use a external monitor? Any other ideas?

We really need to know your exact machine. there are recalls, different issues on different machines. This could be hard drive, hard drive cable, GPU or something else or a combination of issues. Please go here and enter your serial number and tell us what you have, the number is generally on the back in fine print on 2009 machines or in the battery compartment prior to that: http://www.everymac.com/ultimate-mac-loo… MacBook Pros have been in production for 10 years and there’s lots of them: http://www.everymac.com/systems/apple/ma
