Hi - I have a macbookpro - it suddenly shut down and now won't boot up. When I press the power button I hear the hardrive make a noise " tzz tzz' then nothing - except the sleep light is blinking 3 times a second every few seconds. - I've tried taking out the battery and holding down the power button - taken out the RAM - nothing.
and of course my 90 day warranty ran out last week -
Hi - Thanks for your reply, I had a look round the net and found that diagnosis - I don't think it's applicable to me as the machine was up and running to start with. My girlfriend was ill in bed and watching a dvd - could this have overheated the machine and are the 3 flashes to do with this? I've since found this
If she had the MBP on the covers with no bottom ventilation it may well have overheated ... the flashing sleep light and 3 beeps on Boot is still likely to be a RAM failure problem ...
