While doing updates, the computer heats up. I thought there was a correlation with Lion, but I think it is just a heat issue. Once it was cool to the touch I powered it on and it worked. After about an hour give or take, I put it in the other room to let it cool. With it powered on, I covered it really good. So a day later I powered it on, but this time I put it upside down on the bed with the lid closed, so the batter was facing up. I set it up like a teepee again under the covers and overheat it. I did the update, restarted and the issue was back: solid white light, black screen, no chime. About a year+ worth since that's how long it was down. The next day it worked! I had the HDD out, so I powered it down and put it back in. After it got really hot to the touch, I set it in another room upside down overnight. I put lots of pillows around and covered it good. What I did was set the Macbook up like a teepee under the covers on the bed. I heard that this could be due to the Left Logic Board. I tired SMC resets, taking the RAM out, PRAM zap, etc. The Macbook must have overheated when I was doing the Lion update. I thought it was because of the Lion update. I had a disc in so I would hear it spinning.

After a Lion update I would push the power button and get a solid white light (from the sleep light), black screen and there would be no chime. This never happened before!Īlso, my lid light is on solid white, but it's dim.

My Macbook Pro is a 15 inch, early-2008 one, running Mac OSX Lion.Īlso, my Macbook won't start with only the battery. Nothing works! The screen stays in darkness and no chime can be heard! I also tried to leave it alone for a couple of hours, unplugged and without the battery. I have tried unplugging it, removing the battery while it's unplugged, resetting SMC and PRAM, have tried booting from the Mac OSX disk. I'm pretty sure I had the volume up high before I closed the lid, as I was watching a video on YouTube when I closed the lid. After that, I got a phone call, closed the lid again, came back after ~5 mins, and the screen was also black! Except that this time it would stay black and won't turn-on properly! The next day, I woke up, took the Macbook out, opened the lid, but the screen stayed black! Not thinking about it, I pressed the power button until the Mac turned off completely, then turned it on again, and it worked! Then I suddenly woke up at like 4 a.m., I closed the Macbook's lid, put it in its bag (that wasn't a smart idea!), and went to bed. So last night I was surfing the internet, and I fell asleep.
