Mac had trouble starting up. Now dead.
Often I would have to keep pressing the start button because the system would shut down during startup.
Eventually it would start, but now it’s dead. I’ve replaced the battery and the MagSafe charger indicates Green
Questa è una buona domanda?
Can you tell us which model is yours:
A1151 & A1212 both of which have the ATI (AMD) Radeon GPU.
Or, do you have
A1229 & 1261 which have the NVIDIA GeForce GPU?

Well, that does change things a bit! New question!
Which EMC is yours?
2272 or 2329 which have the NVIDIA GeForce 9600M GT and GeForce 9400M dedicated GPU's
Or
2352 or 2564 which have the AMD Radeon HD 6770M dedicated GPU
Apple also produced a few 2352 with the NVIDIA GeForce 330M GT as well.
