Pixelated blue Apple logo, stuck on start up
Hello.
I'm having an issue where my (late 2008) MacBook Pro is no longer booting up past the grey start up screen.
Oddly enough, the usual Apple logo has small blue pixels in it.
I've made searches within the forums, I've not found a solution so far.
I'm unaware if the start up chime has changed, as the computer was muted before the issue arised.
I've tried holding down the 'shift' key when booting up, other than that I'm not an expert on these issues as it's been a well-behaved machine over the years.
There has been no unusual activity with the machine in recent weeks, the keyboard/trackpad overheats and stopos working here and there. That is all.
My specs (that I can remember) are as follows...
Late 2008 MacBook Pro
4GB of RAM
Many thanks,
Lou.
