Macbook Pro continually restarts

[iicanceii]

My Macbook Pro continually restarts and occasionally will start up. Version 10.9.5 Processor: 2.8 GHz Intel Core i7 Memory: 8GB 1067 MHZ DDR3 Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce GT 330M 512 MB



It suddenly happened and I am unsure why. I had apple run diagnostics and it seemed to fix it temporarily. I reformatted the computer and have absolutely no download programs on it. It was running okay and then suddenly began restarting. Once it finally booted back up I was shown this error report. Any help is greatly appreciated in advance, truly thankful for this forum.

Hi,

Sorry but really sounds like a logic board issue.

You have a Macbook pro6,1 and I know there were issue with the 2.
So would book an Apple care appointment a soon as possible

Hi,

Sorry but really sounds like a logic board issue.

You have a Macbook pro6,1 and I know there were issue with the 2.
So would book an Apple care appointment a soon as possible

Thank you for the prompt response. I did go to mac store, they wanted to charge $350 to basically diagnose it and see the problems. I can only imagine the logic board would be costly to replace, so adding that to a $350 fee may not even make sense, right? Also you say theres an issue with the 2, is that possibly a manufacturer defect that I shouldn't be entitled to pay for?

Also, one thing I failed to mention was that 2 years ago the computer was open on a counter 4 feet tall. It fell and landed on its face, denting the front right side heavily and everything else just small scratch. Somehow it actually didn't break the screen, but ultimately it stopped working right away. I messed with it some and reseated the RAM and it was good to go! 2 years later I am running into my current problems. I don't doubt that plays a factor but with my visible dent, they will blame that immediately.

So I guess, do you advise going to a 3rd party repair center or perhaps sourcing the logic board myself? I am very capable of installing anything, even if it requires micro soldering. Really appreciate your feedback, the main apple forum was of no help at all!

Hi,

It may be coverd by this Apple support article. It's worth looking into.

http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4088

 

[iicanceii]

Ah mine is a 17 inch, not 15 I'll look to see if same thing relates to that size screen. Thank you.

 

[iicanceii]

Actually guess its not as easy to find as you sending the link. By chance are you aware of similar issue for 17 inch?

 

[oldscribe]

Hi,

Not looking to good have a look here.

[iicanceii]

Wonderful, likely no support whatsoever and a $3,000.00 computer worth nothing :| Thank you for your help, its unfortunate I have so many expensive apple products and will get no help. Take care,

 

[oldscribe]

Hi,

If you could source a logic board for your exact model might be the way to go.

 

[iicanceii]

K I will at least give that a shot before accepting defeat. Thanks again for your help.

 

[oldscribe]

Hi,

Really sorry I could not be more helpful or positive.
