Checked with Hradware Test.
It saysError Code: 2SVM/1/2: CPU BO VOLTS

Also LED #2 and #7 are RED.


Please help to identify the problem.


Thank you,

Tarasik,


The most helpful information in those posts is staring you in the face in the very first link: it's quite possible—even probable—that you are running the wrong version of AHT (Apple Hardware Test).


Are you 100% certain you're using the version of AHT that came with your particular machine? AHT is highly machine-specific and you cannot use a version that came with the install media for another Mac.


I also suspect that another, very important clue is contained in the last version of BDAqua's first post. 😉
