If there is no change, make an appointment at an Apple store genius bar. The evaluation will be FREE.

Ciao.

My Mac Mini developed a similar problem, after five years. It seems the pink screen results from failed video components. There's a few possible solutions, though.

Consider Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC) by following the procedures listed: Reset the System Management Controller (SMC) on your Mac - Apple Support

Consider resetting the NVRAM via the procedures listed: How to Reset NVRAM on your Mac - Apple Support

My issue seems to stem from a faulty graphics chipset on my Mac Mini's motherboard. If your MBP is a late model, I'll guess it's the same problem and solution. If you had a Mac Pro, you should be able to swap out video cards. Mac Mini and MBP owners are SOL, don't know about iMacs.

I will investigate costs of a new motherboard installation, ugh.

I've talked to 3 Apple Senior Advisors and had the Mini in for repair and it still does the same thing. Apple has no idea what is causing it and they simply avoid me now
