Hi,Ronni,

Thank you very much for the information. Unfortunately, it didn’t work. The 
same black screen with just a white Apple is all that is visible.

I read all the rest of the support information, and I think the only option is 
to take it in to a repair shop and hope for the best.

Again, many thanks,
Pat
