Q: Mac mini mid 2010 struggling to boot then runs slow
Hi
Last week my Mac mini just froze when I was using iPhoto. After waiting more than an hour I forced the reboot by pressing the power button. Since then it boot with a loading bar below the Apple logo ( like an update in progress) this loading take at least 10 to 20 min then it runs very slowly.
I check the monitor activity and I can see reportcrash one after another.
I can't use my wireless keyboard anymore which is not recognized as my usb cable one. (More fun with a screen keyboard...)
Then I checked my system information and on the overview I have : memory 8Gb ???
And on the memory tab : Your mac contains 0 memory slots, each of which accepts a ??? memory module. No user- installable memory slots exist.
I did upgraded 6 month ago my RAM from 2x1Gb to 2x4Gb but so far it was working fine.
Any advise to help me coming back to normal ?
Mac mini (Mid 2010), OS X Yosemite (10.10.1)
