MacBook Pro crashes with checkerboard screen? Won't boot up...
i have spent hundreds of dollars on repairs for this computer. A new battery, new hard drive, etc. it's a 13" MacBook Pro from 2010, I believe. I know it's old but it's been running fine for a whole, albeit quite hot on the bottom. So it crashed on me this morning while I was using youtube- there was a link that appeared under the video which said I could use google to figure out why my video wasn't loading properly. It opened a new page where it gave information about my internet/cable provider, when all of a sudden the screen became overlaid with a checkerboard pattern , at which point I decide to restart the laptop. It doesn't boot up now, rather the checkerboard pattern appears, sometimes it's a different diagonal pattern and other times the screen is totally black, blue or grey. I am worried this laptop is really dying on me.... any thoughts about how to resuscitate it?
I am able use Safe Boot and ran disk utility, tried to restart it in normal mode but it still won't work.
