I need help trying to figure out what happened and how to fix problems I have after replacing my superdrive with an optibay cradle and HDD.
After replacing the superdrive and restarting, here is what I experience:
I have triple checked all connections around the superdrive space and motherboard, and tried placing the superdrive back in an attempt to fix or understand. All to no avail.
I can deal with some of the issues (replace airport with express card for example), but the constant fan noise is really irritating.
My system is a late 2008 MBP 15" 2.66Ghz. Any thoughts or direction would be very much appreciated.
Alternatively, if I could get a tech schematic / drawings of the late 2008 15" that may help.

- No airport hardware found
- No bluetooth
- Fans constantly running at 6000 RPM
- Keyboard always illuminated
