Treated on this thread too --> http://discussions.info.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1697470&tstart=0&messageID=12326867#12326867
I tried all that stuff, but no luck of resolving the problem at this moment.
I thought i could try get a new logic board and ind the case get a higher one,
but i don't know if will be possible swap the old one with a higher model.
My actual model is this one.

And i would like to get one of those higher model's.

it's possible to swap the older model that I've got the first one that has a core duo processor with the latest ones with a core 2 duo and faster processor ?¿
The chip-set looks pretty similar in shape and size.
Thx in advance.
P.D: I have to practice more my English. I'm from Spain by the way.
