i have out of warranty macbook pro model a1226 (2007 generation) running osx lion. have had progressing issue freezing more , more until month ago stopped booting together. freezing similar kind experienced nvidia 8600 gpu failure in entire screen freeze except cursor , slow discoloration , static lines appear across screen until cursor freeze. first few months reboot computer after occurred , operate few days. progressively occurred more , more until few months ago, when couldn't make through apple boot screen without freezing (picture linked below).
have called apple care, taken geniusbar , independent laptop repair shop. applecare told me mail in diagnosed few hundred $ unless found nvidia issues in case repair free. passed on that, , took apple store ran normal diagnostics on test on nvidia gpu, of passed no faults. couldn't duplicate issue @ store after running graphic intensive programs, why think passed both tests. brought local laptop repair shop ran until froze. couldn't figure out exact cause guessed might hard drive issue, doubt . done while computer still periodically worked, today not boot. when press power button hear cd drive cycle once , nothing, computer not turn on.
if has advice or suggestions i'd appreciate it. i'd hate give on , have feeling lot of other people have experienced similar issue model.
