MacBook Pro: Intermittent Black Screen

Summary: I purchased my first MBP around 8 months ago. It's been fantastic to say the least! However, recently (last 3 days), I am experiencing an intermittent black screen issue. Unknown what is the cause, however as this MBP is used as the primary computer for work and play, it is essential this issue is diagnosed and fixed ASAP. Any input from Apple Gurus is much appreciated 🙂

Issue: During normal usage (not after sleep), the screen will suddenly appear black. A hard shutdown / restart is needed. Computer will bootup and continue lost session (if browser's were in use).

- Fans still running.

- Curser did not appear within the black screen.

- External monitor (by DVI connection) and mbp screen were both enabled.

- Issue is occurring with no external monitor attached as well. However, it is more prevalent when monitor is attached (note: 95% of time mbp is attached to external monitor).

Additional: I am aware of of the Nvidia card issues back in 2008. However, this more recent build is outside of that scope, yet the problem seems very similar.

- Apple Hardware Test was preformed yesterday. No issues found.

Great advice from WhoaTony, from this thread.

Hey KP,

Good to hear man!

Visited the Apple Store for the 4th time today, and the Genius this time round went through a length process with me so that we could get down to the bottom of the issue. He was much nicer than the people I've been dealing with so far.

He couldn't figure out the problem and had to get a second opinion, but again, neither of them could spot the issue. I managed to check it in for a logic board replacement after specifying the following (advice for others):

1) I reinstalled the OS after a clean wipe using disk utility, and DID NOT restore from time machine but instead only copied a few files over.

2) Apple has already performed the extended ASD which reported no issues, hence doing it again would be pointless

3) The issue WOULD occur on a clean reinstall, with absolutely no 3rd party software installed

4) My mates with the same models DO NOT have the issue (stupid that I needed to mention that I know)

5) I saved every single kernel panic log into a seperate folder so that they wouldn't disappear after a certain amount of time (It's impressive how big that folder became)

6) I DID NOT drop or bump the machine in any way

And only then, did I get it checked in. But it's done, and I'm happy 😀

The dreaded intermittent black screen has hit me, too. I have a 2007 MBP running OS X 10.6.7 and the problem just started for no apparent reason. A mirrored external monitor displays okay when the MBP screen is black. Neither Word nor Parallels is installed. Strange. I'll bookmark this topic in hopes a solution appears.

I have a 2010 2.4 GHz i5 and experiencing the same issue: random black screen appearing for 1-5 seconds. Seems like it's getting worse.

Well Folks, I unfortunitly have two more black screen issues to report. It is interesting however, my last incident today occurred right after the updated Firefox was downloaded and automaticly installed. Unknown if this action was the cause or not....

Well, after a couple of weeks of it becoming increasingly intermittent, using a second monitor as a work around, I finally threw in the towel. According to the Genius, it's a bad screen. A replacement in the USA is a fixed price of $310 and a 5-7 day turnaround time (ugh!)

Had another instance of the dreaded Black Screen, so I took my MBP into the Apple Store this morning. About 1 minute post startup, the screen went black right infront of the Genius!! I was all smiles 🙂 He ran some additional tests and FINALLY admitted it was very likely a faulty Nvidia GPU on the Logic Board. Since the GPU is perminatly attached to the Logic Board, the board will have to be replaced.

On another note, it's great to see this issue finally gaining some traction in other media outlets. See this article: http://gigaom.com/apple/is-apple-blind-to-nvidia-related-macbook-pro-failures/?g o_commented=1

Is Apple Blind to Nvidia-Related MacBook Pro Failures?

Between 2007 and 2008, some MacBook Pro models shipped with faulty Nvidia GeForce 8600M GT graphics processors, which can cause blank screens or image distortions. Apple acknowledged the issue and offered to repair affected units in October 2008, but a recent report suggests those problems aren’t completely behind the company.

The tool Apple uses to determine whether or not a defective Nvidia GPU is responsible for your MacBook Pro’s problems might not be accurate in a number of cases, according to Mobile Magazine. Apple evaluates machines for the problem using a USB stick running Nvidia’s diagnostic software. Once the drive is inserted, it runs tests and provides printed reports on the nature of the problem. However, the test may not be returning accurate reports in every instance.

In some cases, according to Mobile Magazine, the faulty GPUs can overheat, leading to a short in your logic board when heat-transfer material ends up on parts of your computer’s internals where it shouldn’t be. That would lead to a diagnostic result indicating the logic board had failed, not the GPU. Logic board failures entail a non-warranty repair that can cost more than $1,000.

Mobile Magazine describes one specific case in detail where this occurred, but a call to Hi-Tech Electronics, the shop which performed the diagnostic and repair in question (it replaced the faulty GPU and cleaned the logic board for $260 including shipping, instead of the $1,000 Apple was asking) confirmed it has seen many similar cases, and continues to repair multiple MacBook Pros with problems stemming from the same issue each week.

Apple couldn’t be reached for comment as of this writing. If these reports are accurate, a simple fix would be to open up and inspect the internals of any MacBook Pros potentially affected by faulty Nvidia GPUs, rather than simply performing a software diagnostic test using a USB drive. It would be more costly and time-consuming, but also probably better for customer loyalty in the long run.

Interesting because my 2007 MBP has the GeForce 8600M GT chipset, and I am seeing the occasional blank screen or image distortion. However, I am confused about the symptoms on my MBP. Rebooting fixes the problem temporarily which would tend to indicate a software problem. Further, when the laptop screen is blank I can plug in an external monitor which looks fine, so it would appear the video output is okay except for the feed to the built-in display. Hardware or software? Not sure.

I have a Imac 27"late 2009 and it start 2 months back with give black screens the imac still work but you see nothing. try all things with reset i dont know what and it work for a little time and then again black screens every minute. The problem for me is also i did buy it Online in Belgium and moved in that time toi Bucharest and i know 3 words Romanian. But i did bring the Imac to the repair store from Istyle here in Bucharest and they did a 24 hour test and say the mainboard is broken and sorry your Imac is 14 months old so no garantie it cost 551 euro.

But they give me a number from Apple in England to call and to see what they will do, afther half hour talk with them they fix it under garantie. Ofcorse i was happy, only to pay mayfacturing costs and that was 21 euro here.

So a week before mainboard was there and next day it was fixt i go to store and ask can i see if it work and hahaha they start the Imac and directly black screen again, they changed the 4 memmory cards and it work, afther 3 days i had again black screens and call them ohh then it is the graphiccard we ask apple to send graphiccard and afthjer week they changed it and it work good, but yes afther 4 days i have again black screens so problem is not fixd, now they are again doing 24 hour test and they dont know what they must do to fix it.

They are busy with apple to get new Imac. It have nothing to do with have parralleles ore windows on your machine i had the same problem with only osx 10.6 on it. Its a problem from the first Imac 27" but Apple do if they never hear from it, and that *****.

My Apple love is almost over in hate apple is my 3 apple machine in 4 years and my 2 Iphone in 1 year, so qaulity ???????? made in china that say enough i think.

This covers only the Mid-2010 15-inch MacBook Pro (manufactured between April 2010 and February 2011). Nor does it divulge the cause of the problem although it implies software. I still have occasional blackouts on a 2007 MBP running Snow Leopard.

This is unbelievable. I was having the same intermittent black screen/no wake issue with my MacBook Pro Mid-2010 i5. Took into the Apple Store, and the Genius confirmed it is an issue that Apple will repair at no cost. So they have my laptop (4-6 days to repair), but I can't go without my machine for that long so I purchased a 15" MacBook Pro i7 (built August 2011) to cover that time (will return when I get my original back). To my amazement, this new i7 did the SAME THING!! Apple has a serious quality issue that they need to address immediately.

I Have brought my mid 2010 to apple service, in hoping that they will replace my logic board as promised on the web support, i came out with nothing! they rejected 3 times, makes me wait for 2months without laptop, now i gotta pay for a new logic board $610. i Live in Indonesia. not much you can do when you live in the suburb of asia huhh. Thx APPLE !!
