Q: 2011 Mac Book Pro wont start up
Hi everyone
I have a 2011 MBP (not sure what it's running - could be Mavericks) that is not starting up.
It had been running fine until this morning when I started it up. I knew something was wrong when I saw a little box with horizontal blue lines around the Apple logo. It then went to a white/grey screen and then to a bright blue screen.
I have tried a range of things at start up and continually get a grey/white or blue screen.
I had it fixed a year ago because of it's graphics card failing (typical 2011 MBP).
What could this issue be and have I potentially lost all of my data? - I have 80% of it saved on my external hard drive except my Lightroom files and a large file of photos (which I really don't want to lose!)
Thanks for looking into this for me!
MacBook Pro (15-inch Early 2011)
