I turned on my MBP today and nothing started. Grey startup screen begins to spool then freezes.
I read somewhere that the RAM cards I installed myself might be loose or need swapping around.
I tried this, and to my utter stupidity one of the four metal latches that secure each ram in place broke off completely.
My RAM sticks now cannot make full contact at the copper teeth end as the latch isnt there to hold secure it!!!
How much is this going to cost me to fix ????? I have no Applecare and Im a student with a hell of a lot of work to do.
Im begining to panic. I will go to apple store london (nearest one in 100 mile radius) and ask if they can fix this but I'm worried it will take time and a heck a lot of money.
Anyone ever done this? Any ideas if this can be fixed? Your help will be gratefully recieved.
Andy
