Greetings, all.

I stripped my Mac down to the bare parts. I pulled the motherboard out, pulled out the drive cage, and the power supply. Other than being extremely dusty, nothing looked out of the ordinary. I vacuumed and air-sprayed the dust out, so now it's totally dust free. I put it back together and... nothing. Stripped it apart again and put it back together and... nothing.

This morning I was told I needed to reset the PMU, so I did that.

Then... BONG.  But no bootup.

So, next week (I'm out for the next few days) I'm going to check the voltage coming out of the power supply. Hopefully that's the problem, and I can get a new one from TechRestore for $130 and be good to go. If not, I may have to take it to a service center.

Daniel
