Hi guys,

I bought in 2011 my Macbook Pro from Apple's website. It worked fine until 3 months ago. It began to loose the video signal and the most of the time the computer just restarted and couldn't reach the login screen before the black screen appeared:

I began to search at the internet, and found out that it was a typical error for this type of macbooks:

I got it repaired by Apple in November 2013, and had a new logic board installed. They found out that it was this failure that was the reason why the constant stalled.

Since it was made 3 months ago, it has been running fine .. Until for 1 week ago, where i was watching a movie, my computer suddenly stalled. It began to get small green pixel errors on the screen. I felt compelled to reboot using the on / off button.

When I very occasionally are allowed and get to the login screen (1 out of 100 times), it looks like this screen + freezes completely: http://picz.dk[...]

I also have a video of the process from, I log in - to the black screen appears with error:

But first I'd like to hear what you have of inputs? Could it be my logic board again? Or it might be a software error? I've tried everything that i could.

- Tried to run in safe mode - the screen just stalled at the grey apple logo.
- Tried to insert my installation disc so i could restore. Just stalled at the grey apple logo. Again!

Thank you,
Nico
