Title:

2007 MacBook Pro Wont Power On...

Text:

Hello!

I have a 2007 Macbook Pro 15inch which  had the Nvidia Geforce 8600m GT problem.

I followed guides to get the graphics chip working again.

when i first turned it on, it didn't do anything and took a afew presses of the power button to do anything.

When i finally got the computer to post, it would shut down a couple of seconds after the startup chime.

Sometimes if i was lucky, it would boot all the way up to OS X and then shut off shortly after.

Times when it dosen't turn on at all, it sounds as if the hard drive is spinning up and then dies after a while.

please Help!

MacBook Pro 15" Core 2 Duo Models A1226 and A1260
