Ethernet port dead- new logic board needed?

The ethernet port on my 2010 iMac 21.5" died after a storm last week, so I brought it to the Apple store to have it checked out.  They said it needs a new logic board since the port is connected to it, which will cost around $700.  I can't see spending that much money to fix it, anyone have an ideas on where I could sell it for parts?  The guy I spoke to at the store said to give it a shot

Is your wireless still working?  You could connect your Mac over Wi-Fi instead, if you still wanted to use the Mac, that is.  Or use a USB Ethernet adapter.  Apple sells one for $50 that was primarily for the Macbook Air, but will work with any recent mac.  But if you already have Wi-Fi, then I'd try that.  And if you don't have Wi-Fi, it still may be useful to try Wi-Fi first because even if the Mac's Wi-Fi doesn't work, you can still attach other computers or devices like iPads or iPhones, etc.  Whereas it would be a waste to buy the USB ethernet adapter only to find out that the USB ports on your Mac were also affected by the storm.
Otherwise, as usual, you can always sell on eBay & Craigslist.

  • My G5 died... new logic board needed... What do i do?

    Ok, here's the story:
    The other day, my G5 crashed when i wasn't using it (screensaver).
    I hard rebooted it, fan started to spin, power light flashed only when i pressed the button and then no screen. After a while, fans started at full speed...
    Tried loads of things (reseat memory, PCI cards etc...), nothing worked.
    I took it to the local Apple Certified Service centre. They called me after half a day to tell me that the Logic board had a problem and needed replacing and quoted £585 inc vat!
    No need to say that i am pretty upset as i paid 1400 3 years ago for that machine!
    Now, what are my best options?
    This is a dual 1.8 G5 (early 05) with 3Go ram and 2 SATA drives. I have 2 standard Pci Cards for music in it (RME audio card and UAD-1).
    Should I get it repaired?
    Should i buy a second hand G5 (which would cost the same sort of price but with the risk of having a problem as well)
    Should I go for a new or newer Mac pro but can i reuse my memory, PCI cards, disks etc???
    Thanks a lot for advice.

    Hi tek_uk,
    Welcome to the forums.
    Your mac is one found in either of these model series. Anything you have now on your mac would work for both series and if you chose to go with one of the faster models listed you could easily do that.

    Replace logic board... There must be a special course at Apple training schools in saying that.

  • Is there a fix for a dead ethernet port besides a new logic board?

    My ethernet port went dead on my IMac.  I unplugged the ethernet cable and plugged it into my laptop and it worked instantly.  I am still able to connect wirelessly.  I bought an apple USB to Ethernet converter and plugged it in.  It worked for about 3 days and then it went dead.  Once again I was able to unplug the ethernet cable, plug it into my laptop and instantly had a connection.  Is there a fix for a dead ethernet port besides a new logic board and if not how do I figure out which logic board I need?
    Thanks
    Step

    This problem baffled me. I kept getting the "ethernet cable unplugged" error after testing my cables good. Was abut to write it off as port gone bad when I found this thread.
    The YouTube video reference above fixed my problem. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u1P6X87qArs)
    Basically go to SETTINGS/NETWORK. Then highlight your ETHERNET port and click the ADVANCED button. From there click the HARDWARE tab.
    Set
    CONFIGURE to MANUALLY
    SPEED to whatever your ethernet speed is, in my case 1000baseT
    DUPLEX - FULL DUPLEX, FLOW CONTROL
    Leave MTU at Standard
    Hit OK.
    Then don't forget to hit APPLY. I didn't do this the first couple of times assuming hitting OK applied these settings. You gotta hit APPLY.
    In about two seconds, my Ethernet connected again.
    I went back and reset it to AUTOMATIC just to test and after doing so got the cable unplugged error again. So I am leaving it on manual and it's working.

  • Keys 5-9 no longer work after water damage. Do I need a new logic board?

    I had the smallest amount of water on my fingers when I typed something on my keyboard and now keys 5-9 no longer work. Will I need a whole new logic board for this? I've been into two Apple stores and both say I need to book an appointment online. I've been online and tried to book in at three different Apole stores within my area and I just get 'there are no slots available' how am I supposed to get this fixed if I can't book a session to see some!?! Sort it out Apply, it's why your products cost so bl**dy much isn't it!?

    thanks, but I really don't think its the logic board since I can still plug in head phones and i can hear movies, etc.
    also when i don't have my magicJack plugged in to make calls they now give you a magictalk dial pad to make calls and when i plug in the headphones again i can talk through the speakers and be heard and I can hear them too. Is there something I can used to maybe pull out the connection. I think it thinks the headphones are plugged  in all the time.

  • HT1349 I received a new logic board and now my computer has no serial number under 'about this mac', and I need it to submit questions to apple.  What do I do?

    I can't find the serial number for my mac after getting a new logic board on recall for my macbook pro.

    You can open System Profiler and see if it contains your serial number.
    Or have the computer near a previous connected Wifi or on a Ethernet cable to your router.
    Reboot holding the D key down for like what would appear to be 10 minutes until Hardware Test appears on the screen.
    You can run a test if you wish.
    There is a pane at the top if selected will give you your new serial number.
    You also can use Terminal
    You can quickly retrieve any Macs serial number via the command line by using the following command string:
    system_profiler |grep "r (system)"
    The command results will look something like this:
    $ system_profiler |grep "r (system)"
    Serial Number (system): C24E1322XXXX
    If that fails you can give them your MAC address which is unique to each machine and there are records at Apple with it.
    Open Utilities > Terminal. Copy, paste and press enter:
    For your computers Ethernet (wired) MAC address: ifconfig en0 | grep ether
    For your computers Airport (wireless) MAC address: ifconfig en1 | grep ether

  • Imac G5 needs new logic board

    Hi,
    My imac G5 was revving up quite a bit and acted like I was downloading something all the time. I thought it might just need the fans to be cleaned but I took it into the genius bar and was told that they guy "thinks" that I need a new logic board but isn't positive and would I like to look at the new imacs. ( I love looking at the new imacs but it's not in my budget). He said it would cost close to $800.00 to repair my imac. I edit video on it and it's also become the family computer. Any suggestions? Do I put the money into replacing the logic board? Do I put money into expanding the memory on my macbook pro that only has 2 gb of memory?

    Has it been shutting down unexpectedly?
    There was a repair extension program for some of these iMacs which suffered from defective capacitors on the Logic Board and the Power Supply. It's been closed since Dec. 08, but I've heard of people appealing to Apple Customer Service anyway and getting the repairs covered. First you should open the computer and determine if the capacitors on the Logic Board are swelling or leaking at all. If so, you might be able to convince Apple to do the repairs. 1-800-275-2273. If at first you get turned down, ask to speak to a higher level rep.
    Tell them how unfair you think it is that those who had the problem before the program closed were covered, and it was just your bad luck that your computer lasted a bit longer. You can also say that had you opened it up earlier, you probably would have seen the bad capacitor issue developing before the program closed. They are numerous little cylinders about 3/4 inch tall. The tops should be perfectly flat. No brownish gunk. Inspect it very carefully.You won't be able to look inside the Power Supply easily, though. If your iMac is not an iSight, it's very easy to open up. Just three screws at the bottom. Have a look here for illustrated instructions for your model. If it is an iSight, probably best not to try; a bit too complicated. Or you might just call the repair service and ask exactly why they thought it needed a new Logic Board. Did they see bad capacitors?

  • New logic board, and new display, but now completely dead.

    Hi guys,
    I've got an iBook G3, running 10.3.9.
    In December 2006, the logic board failed, so I bought a MacBook, because I didn't have time to be offline waiting weeks for Apple to replace the iBook's logic board.
    After much badgering, Apple reluctantly replaced the iBook's logic board under the extended warranty program.
    While the iBook was with the Apple repair store, they replaced the display for new as well, even though I didn't ask them to, and even though I wasn't charged for it.
    I presume that was because the store discovered that the display was duff enough to be replaced under another extended warranty program.
    When I got the "repaired" unit home, with a brand new logic board, and a brand new display, I turned it on, and it seemed to be working fine, so I turned it off, and continued to use my MacBook.
    A few weeks ago, the second logic board on my MacBook failed (another long horror story entirely), so I began using the iBook for the first time since it had been "repaired" some six months earlier.
    Almost immediately, the iBook began exhibiting a major problem, specifically that I'd be typing away, and suddenly the display would go black.
    I could just about see the icons and documents on the screen, but the unit was unusable.
    So I pulled restarts, full shutdowns, disk utility, zapped the PRAM, etc, all to no avail.
    It seemed to be an intermittent problem.
    For example, sometimes, from a cold start, the unit would work for two or three hours until the display went black.
    Other times, I'd pull a cold start, and it would go straight to the black display.
    By chance, I discovered that if I gave the iBook a shake, the display would come back on.
    But then it would go black after a second or two.
    And then with another shake, it would come back on for a second or two.
    And then it would go black after a second or two.
    And then with another shake, it would come back on, sometimes for a couple of hours at a time.
    So I figured that it must be a cable which, during the installation of the logic board, and/or the new display, wasn't seated correctly by the technician.
    I phoned Apple, and told them about it.
    They said that because I had reported the issue beyond 90 days since the logic board had been replaced, it was no longer Apple's problem.
    I explained to Apple that I hadn't used the iBook for six months, because I had a MacBook.
    After much badgering, Apple has agreed to replace the logic board if it's faulty.
    However, Apple has refused to replace the NEW display, even if that's also faulty.
    Apple is also insisting that I have to pay all the labor charges.
    Meanwhile, I've noticed that the iBook is now incredibly hot.
    I mean, the MacBook is infamous for running hot, but this "repaired" iBook makes my MacBook feel like a block of ice by comparison.
    I don't remember the iBook running so extremely hot before the "repair."
    Which has made me notice that during the last few weeks, I've never heard the iBook's fan come on.
    I presume that an iBook has a fan ?
    Please confirm.
    Therefore, another loose cable ?
    Today, the display went black again, as usual.
    So I gave the iBook a shake.
    But this time, nothing happened.
    No display.
    No fan.
    No hard drive spinning.
    Just silent and dead.
    What do you reckon, guys ?
    Duff logic board ?
    And/or duff display ?
    And/or duff fan ?
    And/or duff cabling by the technician ?
    As far as I'm concerned, I don't see why I should have to pay for yet another repair, to correct hardware and/or workmanship which was so bad that after only three weeks of ACTUAL use since the "repair", the unit is now completely dead.
    All opinions and advice gratefully received.
    With thanks and best wishes,

    Hi S,
    Many thanks for your helpful and swift response.
    I agree with you regarding the likelihood that these problems would have surfaced immediately during normal usage, regardless of how much or little time had passed since the repair.
    As advised, I will inform Apple Customer Relations UK about the new developments.
    Indeed, when I resubmit the iBook, I'll include a print-out of this discussion.
    I agree with you about the fan.
    Prior to the failure of the first logic board, I ran that iBook for YEARS, without noticing any heat issue.
    Indeed, if there had been such incredible heat, then I'd have searched these discussion boards, and reported it to Apple HQ.
    Therefore, the astonishing heat is definitely a new development since the "repair."
    Consequently, I take on board your comments about the lack of a working fan since the "repair", which I shall also mention to Apple HQ.
    As for running the Apple Hardware Test, the unit is completely dead.
    The power cable is green, but the unit is now completely silent and black.
    I also note your suggestions regarding the cable which connects the display to the rest of the unit, which I shall also mention to Apple HQ.
    No repair sheet was ever given to me by the Apple Repair Centre (ARC).
    Indeed, no receipt was ever given to me when I delivered the unit to the ARC, nor was any paperwork ever given to me when I collected the unit from the ARC.
    However, Apple HQ can see on their screen that the logic board and display were both replaced for new by the ARC.
    What else was and wasn't done by the ARC is a mystery.
    I'll phone the ARC and ask for copies of any and all paperwork, so that I can submit it all to Apple HQ, which I note is your recommended option, rather than returning the unit to the ARC.
    However, the complicating factor is that with the exception of the logic board, it is my understanding that Apple is denying any liability on any part of the "repaired" unit, including the brand new display.
    If I understand Apple HQ correctly, they're now saying that all other hardware and labor costs will be mine.
    I'm sure I could buy a WORKING second-hand iBook G3 for the same price as a repair, if not cheaper.
    Therefore, perhaps I should return the unit to the ARC, and give them the opportunity to correct their previous workmanship, at their OWN cost.
    Because as far as I'm concerned, the ARC had two customers during the repair: Apple and the end-user, as evidenced by the fact that the ARC has invoiced its first customer Apple for workmanship which was clearly not up to Apple's own standards, and the ARC has then delivered the unit to its second customer, the end-user.
    In addition, regardless of Apple's 90 day warranty on repaired hardware, UK law includes the Sale of Goods Act 1979, and other relevant legislation: http://www.dti.gov.uk/consumers/fact-sheets/page38311.html
    Furthermore, if the ARC is completely unhelpful, I could jump all over them, by writing to Apple HQ, with cc's to the UK editions of MacWorld, MacFormat, and MacUser magazines.
    As advised, if the unit goes to Apple HQ, I will suggest that the unit is looked at carefully during disassembly, to see if errors were made during the ARC "repair."
    I'm always polite when on the phone to Apple, because I love the company so much.
    Indeed, even though during the last twelve months, I've been having very bad luck with the iBook, as well as with a MacBook which has exhibited so many problems that Apple has now agreed to replace old for new, I still love my Mac.
    And joy, sweet joy, I've just seen on the TNT courier's tracker website, that my replacement MacBook, built by Apple in Singapore, then flown to Arnhem in Germany, then flown to Northampton UK, then delivered to Heathrow UK, left the Heathrow depot 30 minutes ago, for delivery to the customer.
    And the sun is shining.
    Thank you again for all your kind and wise advice.
    With best wishes,

  • Do I need a new logic board?

    Hi
    I recently acquired a broken 12" ibook G4 1.33GHz which I intend to repair and use as a second home computer. When the machine is booted I get a chime and black screen. That is as far as it gets - it will not even power down properly.
    Very occasionally and seemingly randomly it will boot without "cmdopt+OF" to an Open Firmware prompt with an "Illegal Instruction at xxxxxxx" error message. When I continue to try to boot with the "mac-boot" command I eventually get the "No hard drive" screen (with the flashing folder icon). I have already swapped out the broken hard drive that was in there with one I know to work and contain a bootable OSX.
    I have tried resetting the PRAM and NVRAM, although I'm not sure it's actually taking effect as I don't get the second chime on the PRAM reset; for what is probably a similar reason none of the boot options seem to work and I can't boot into Open Firmware using cmdopt+OF.
    I'm not sure what's left to try. I don't mind getting a new logic board if that's the problem but I would like rule out all other options first. Does anyone have any suggestions?
    Thanks in advance

    Try booting from the install disk then run Repair Disk
    Insert Installer disk and Restart, holding down the "C" key until grey Apple appears.
    Go to Installer menu (Panther and earlier) or Utilities menu (Tiger) and launch Disk Utility.
    Select your HDD (manufacturer ID) in the left panel.
    Select First Aid in the Main panel.
    (Check S.M.A.R.T Status of HDD at the bottom of right panel, and report if it says anything but Verified)
    Click Repair Disk on the bottom right.
    If DU reports disk does not need repairs quit DU and restart.
    If DU reports errors Repair again and again until DU reports disk is repaired.
    If DU reports errors it cannot repair you will need to use a utility like Tech Tool Pro or Disk Warrior

  • Ethernet port dead on Powerbook firewire

    ethernet port dead on my Powerbook Firewire 400MHZ G3 1GB RAM 40GB HARD DRIVE DVD-ROM
    I tried Open Firmware Reset and PRAM RESET AND WOULD I NEED TO GET A NEW LOGIC BOARD.
    Joshua Lich
    The port stopped working for 2 months and i have no AHT DISKS OR PROPER IMAGES TO DO SO

    Hi, and Welcome to the Forums..
    Ok, since you already did a PRAM reset and that didn't resolve the problem.. there is ONE LAST step before we can say it is or could be the logic board.. Do a PMU reset. This is a hard reset where you would have to do the following:
    A full (PMU) reset of the Pismo (Apple calls it a 'PowerBook (FireWire)') follows: If the computer is on, turn it off. Press and release the reset button located on the rear panel of the computer between the external video and modem ports. Wait 5 seconds. Press the Power button to restart the computer.
    If and only if you do this and the problem is not resolved, either you will need the Apple Hardware Test which came packaged with the Pismo or you will need MacTest Pro also called: Apple Service Diagnostic to do further diagnostic checking on the Pismo's ethernet port.
    Try the PMU reset above and report back.. Try to then plug in an ethernet cable and see if u can get any response from it. If not, I would suggest getting the AHT or MTP from someone.. Actually, if you email me I might be able to further assist as I DO have the tools to make your Pismo work again, hopefullly assuming its not a logic board issue.

  • Does the new logic board in the macbook 13 fit the 2010 model

    hey everyone, it would be great if i could find an answer to this and i think it might be negative, but it's worth a shot.
    i was wondering if the logic board on the i5 or i7 on the macbook pro would be able to fit on the 2010 model of the macbook pro. 
    Currently I'm running the latest version of lion which is 10.7.2 with a 2.66 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo and 8 gigs of ram.  I just upgraded the ram because even with just basic processing it was running more than max capacity with 4 gigs.  To me that's absolutely insane seeing as that it was just resting.
    I understand that the new logic board has the thunderbolt capability and that that port would be inaccessable to the current outfit that my body has as of right now.
    I guess I'm just wondering if the board would still line up with the 2010 macbook pro model as far as the USB and other ports go.
    p.s. if the apple community could rise up maybe and tell apple to release a free upgrade to the new system saying "OUR BAD, SORRY FOR THE PROCESSOR SCREW UP" that would be great. because i know so many people that have complained just like the windows vista users did
    PLEASE FIX THE SCREW UP THAT WAS MADE WITH LION. I LOVE THE IDEA OF IT, BUT CAN'T STAND THE LAG AND HAVING TO REPAIR THE PERMISSIONS AND THE DISK ONCE PER MONTH.
    oh yea, and if you haven't done that to improve the speed of your mac yet, do it, because it really does work. there are some forums throughout here that explain the details

    Hi g,
    In my mind, there is only one thing to do, and that is to bring it back to wherever you had the repairs done and have them fix it correctly under warranty. You should not have to pay for more repairs unless they can clearly demonstrate to you that there have been three completely separate issues which needed three different repairs.

  • Horror after new logic board installation.

    Hello,
    I have an older 2008 MacBook Pro 2.5 GHz 17" computer which after years or erratic behaviour (overheating and black screen after that) forced me to buy and install new logic board. I've done it myself due to my extensive (unfortunately) experience in baking the old board. All went well. The computer booted however it took very long time to actually load the system. After 20 minutes or so I interrupted this and switched off the system. After switching again it booted quicker and loaded the system as normal. Long story short. All the components register properly under system profiler. However both firewire ports don't mount my external hard drive. The drive works perfectly with other computers. The drive (Lacie) when connected to either port (400 or 800) spins up and indicates connection made (blue light is on). I can even hear it mounting but it never shows up on the screen. The computer literally doesn't see it even after Finder relaunch. I've followed all the usual resetting procedures found on the internet with no results. Same problem with ethernet. It shows in the system profiler, after connecting cable computer sees it but no internet connection is made. The network setting says: self-assigned IP ... and shows orange indicator. I never had any of these issues with my old logic board. Again here I've done all the resetting with no results. Before coming to this forum I've spent the entire week trying to figure it out.
    Can somebody please at least point me in the right direction as to what should I do.

    This is after replacing logic board with new one.
    Actually there are no NEW 2008 MBP logic boards. Apple stopped having them made sometime in 2008 or 2009. All that are available now are used, reconditioned and or left over stock (but I doubt that). Seeing as the 2008 model had a recall for failed nVidia GPUs all of them have been baked and or reflowed.
    So it seems the current replacement 2008 LB you have is also faulty.

  • Replace FW port WITHOUT replacing logic board

    Ok so I know everyone including apple says that you have to replace the entire logic board if your FireWire port is damaged however spending $400 for a new logic board on a computer that might cost not much more than that isn't a smart choice financially. I'd rather find a way to solder on a new FireWire port.
    I have the 13" black Macbook core duo 2.0GHz and I already spent $200 replacing the hard drive, memory and battery so I really can't spend anymore money on this thing before it becomes stupid. I would have just bought a brand new mac mini!
    Anyone have some experience replacing ports on a logic board??

    Won't work. The FireWire port is part of the logic board. Even if you could get the old one off without damaging the board, you can't get the port as a part, and then reconnecting it...no.
    At least the MacBook has some functionality now. If  you need FireWire, sell this one (letting the buyer know about the problem) and get a new machine.
    Best of luck.

  • Kernel panic.. with new logic board

    Hi,
    So I recently replaced my logic board after trying EVERYTHING to fix a somewhat frequently occuring kernel panic. Now however.. it has happened again.
    Does anyone have any idea what could be causing this? I honestly feel like I've tried everything. Could it be bad RAM? I've changed the hard drive, done a fresh OS X install (perhaps its something in my settings from migrating my old stuff back over?), new logic board.. reset PRAM, every suggestion I could find.
    Here is the old discussion before I changed the logic board. https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3902490
    Attached the latest crash log.

    Any help at all or new fixes I could try would be greatly appreciated! Very frustrating!

    Cheers - I've run Rember a few times and it hasn't come up with any errors, but I've heard it's not a 100% accurate test. Looks like that's the only thing left it could be!

  • Apple says "logic board needs replaced" because MBP won't turn on w/o SMC reset but I think I can fix it; can you help?

    Hello,
    Less than a year after purchasing a brand new, early-2011 Macbook Pro (still covered under Extended Apple Care) and, sadly, only a week or two after finally upgrading to 8GB RAM, I returned to my notebook after taking a shower and watched it suddenly shut itself down. It has not been responsive to the power button since then (although, see below.. I think I can fix it).
    Genius Bar took one look at the visible moisture sensor you can see underneath where the RAM sits and declared it water-damaged. While I agree that either a short and/or corrosion is causing my MBP to malfunction, I don't believe it should void my warranty because the problem isn't that I spilled something on it.1
    I hope someone can give me some insight into fixing this myself. Apple says "the Logic Board needs replaced" (a common CS response, I've noticed) the water damage voids my Extended Care + that it'll be at least $1200 and several weeks. Here's the situation:
    MBP will not turn on just by pressing the power button. However, MBP consistently (every time) powers up when I do an SMC reset.
    I have it in verbose mode and it begins booting. But, it will invariably turn off without warning anywhere between 30 seconds and 8-10 minutes after powering up.
    MBP will not turn on just by pressing the power button. However, MBP consistently (every time) powers up when I do an SMC reset.
    I have it in verbose mode and it begins booting. But, it will invariably turn off without warning anywhere between 30 seconds and 5 minutes of powering up.
    Eighty percent of the time, it turns off during the pre-Xorg boot. However, I have also seen it fully boot, I log in, I'm able to peruse logfiles/etc. Safe Mode (holding shift) crashes early. Single-user mode makes no difference. PRAM/NVRAM/etc makes no difference. I can boot to the Recovery Partition but it turns off just the same (disk utility scan takes too long).
    I haven't been able to really test the Internet Recovery because the hotel wireless takes too long. I did boot into Hardware Test and it passed the basic and extended tests (although it seemed to just be testing the RAM integrity.
    I can boot from the optical drive with a FreeBSD 9 livecd and an Ubuntu 11.04 livecd. Of note is that the laptop shuts off consistently when FreeBSD begins the journaling services for the ZFS filesystem (every time).
    Here is where this leads me to believe I'm at (I am not dogmatic here and would appreciate any corrections or insight):
    It seems like there may be corrosive damage on the logic board but maybe it's isolated given the various consistencies in what's happening. It seems like whenever SATA is use, I lose power. When SATA isn't really used (the HW Test), the laptop has literally stayed on for days and days.
    I want to get in there and clean up any corrosion with 91% isopropyl alcohol (9% distilled, non-conductive water).
    I want to use a bootable OSX livecd with an "emergency console" so I can, basically, use boot options to step throught the boot process and see if I can isolate the problem.
    Here is what I'm uncertain about and could use guidance:
    Does any of this sound remotely reasonable to anyone who has been through this or am I delusional?
    Any tips on identifying and cleaning any corrosion?
    While I had made a bootable version of Lion via Disk Utility and a rescue disk with some third-party app, they are MIA and I don't have another Mac at the moment. Do I have any other options? Again, an install dvd is not exactly what I want -- more like a rescue dvd. I had read about some Apple Stores giving/copying bootable USB thumb drives like this to customers. But, I noticed that this is now on sale there for $80. I would use this like once and, ideally, could use my MBP to make more. $80 seems a bit much.
    I should be able to step through the boot process in a way like what's possible with FreeBSD, no?
    Anyone have any other specific troubleshooting tips?
    I really, reallly need my MBP back as soon as possible. I'd really appreciate any wisdom and insight! Thank you,
    -ryan                             
    To be totally honest, about 3 weeks prior I spilled some milk from cereal on the desk and a little bit got onto the battery. However, the notebook worked fine for the following weeks. I believe that the problems have been caused by ambient humidity ... I've been staying in a hotel that steams up the entire room when I take a shower. The windows are covered in water droplets so why wouldnt the MBP be affected? As noted, these problems began after I lingered in a hot shower.

    I don't think you have a case.
    You can replace the logic board yourself if you are a DIY'er and save some money.
