My 2008 unibody will only post once in 20 tries. Otherwise I get no chime, no light or video, but I do get a power indicator, dvd drive sound, and fan at regular speed.

I've tried the following:

Reset pram and SMC.
removed ram
removed hard drive
removed battery and unplugged while holding power for up to 60 seconds
booted holding the eject key

On rare occasion it will post to the apple logo, but never go further. I'm willing to try a reflow using the oven method if anyone has ever fixed their doing so.

Second question: Will any 13" macbook pro single solid bottom cover fit my unibody? The split case doesn't line up well and rattles.
