SMC: smcreadkeyaction Error
Hello,
I recently purchased a imac from a guy who said that the early 2008 Imac 3.06Ghz only needed a new harddrive as he pulled his old harddrive to put into his new imac. When I installed a brand new WD 1.5Tb harddrive the computer would boot to apple screen then freeze after about 20 seconds. I ran in verbose script (command +v) and here is the action where it freezes. All new harddrives I have installed lion on before I placed into computer because computer would feeze if try to start in cd mode.
SMC: smcreadkeyaction Error: smcreaddata8 failed for key MOTP (kSMCKeynotfound)
At first I thought it was the new harddrive so I replaced with another new harddrive and I still have the same error message. I took to the apple store to talk to the "Genius'" and they said it was the harddrive. So far I have replaced the imac with 3 new WD green 1.5 TB harddrives new out of the box drives and keep running into the same problem. This is starting to look more like a serious problem and hoping someone can help with some info. All other boot script looks fine. I am starting to think i got sold a imac with a bad logic board.
Here is the full error script
