Seriously tried everything and my macbook keeps freezing...HELP

I have a white macbook 2,1.  Running 10.7.5 with two gigs of crucial memory, installed 3 years ago (passed Rember test yesterday), installed new HD, I only have the OS loaded and Rember.  No other programs.  Everything works fine, but after anywhere between 1 minute and 15 minutes after start up, it will freeze.  The freeze is more like being super slow.  Super slow as in it will take the 3 minutes for the pointer to get caught up to where it was moving.  I ran hardware test holding down "d" while starting up.  All passed.  My screen is fine, no flickering.  I am at a total loss.  After reseting the PRAM it seems to last a bit longer before freezing, but it still ends up freezing.  If I close the cover and open it back up it is guaranteed to freeze immediately. I am open to any suggestions.  I even clean the logic board, fan, heat sink, new thermal paste and nothing has helped.  Please HELLLLLLP!

If you don't have the Applecare extended warranty then you will need to pay for the fix. The fix is a New Logic Board. It seems as your Graphics card is failing in some way. No there is no software fix for this.
The Graphic chip is soldered to the logic board and the only way to change/fix it is to replace the complete logic board.
Good Luck and Best Wishes

  • I did the recent update on my ipad 7.0.4 and now it keeps freezing up and can not use it. Tried reboot and works for a second then freezes right up again. Anyone else have this issue or know a fix?

    I did the recent update on my ipad 7.0.4 and now it keeps freezing up and can not use it. Tried reboot and works for a second then freezes right up again. Anyone else have this issue or know a fix?

    Madmonkey,
    First thing to try is to reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.
    Gaylefromnewhope,
    Seems like you tried this all ready and it didn't help.
    Next might be to reset all settings.
    Settings > General > Reset > Reset all Settings
    Note that when you do this you will not lose data but you will have to enter all passwords again.
    If that doesn't help you might tries a restore of your iPad using iTunes on the computer you normall sync with. Do a backup and save all data first. Or
    Make an appointment at an Apple Store to have your device examined by a technician. Or contact Apple Support.

    I have reset my Apple ID & Password but I still cannot access the music I purchased using another computer, ID & PW. It keeps saying that my computer is not authorize to play the songs. I have tried everything and nothing seems to work. Help!

    iPod touches or any iDevices from Apple sync only to one computer. If you sync to a different computer, all your music will be replace with the music from the new computer's iTunes. If the music were purchased from iTunes, you can re-download them again otherwise the music on iPod touch will be deleted. Do you have iTunes backup?

    I have tried everything and nothing works. When the computer starts it makes weird sounds and also when I try to eject it. Nothing Works! Please Help.

    I had that happen with a MacBook. It turned out that the metal case above the slot was slightly bent down.
    Putting a flat blade screwdriver in the slot and gently twisting it to move the metal case up allowed it to eject. Don't put it in too far you only want to bend the case not the drive.
    The case can get bent down by picking it up with your thumb pressing down on the case above the slot.

  • Error Code 50 when installing Creative Cloud desktop update - tried everything and no joy

    Folks I've been trying to update my CC desktop app to the latest release and keep getting Error Code 50 at around 47% of the install process.
    I've tried every suggestion that has been posted on the Adobe site and forums including:
    1 Opening my CC account in the Adobe website and then trying to install - no joy.
    2 Running the Adobe cleaner and re-installing CC - no joy.
    3 Restarting computer and attempting reinstall - no joy.
    4 All of the above with my firewall and anti-virus switched off - no joy.
    I'm running Windows 8.1 on a hi-spec machine and I've never had an issue with any update of the CC App or any of the program apps I utilise (Lightroom, Photoshop and Acrobat).
    Not really sure what I do now as I've tried everything and really need to keep working (pro photographer) so am having to ditch this for now as it's taking too much time.
    Grateful for any suggestions please.
    Many thanks
    James

  • HT1338 my macbook keeps freezing

    my macbook keeps freezing how do i fix this problem?

    Boot from your installer dvd, recovery partition, or external bootable drive and run Disk Utility to repar/verify your drives (not repair permissions).
    Do a smc and pram reset.
    Boot in safe mode then reboot.
    See if your machine still freezes after those operations are preformed.  If so run Apple Hardware Test to check your machine.
    If AHT findes nothing then your software additions will need to be investigated.  But worry about that later.

    Hi scottschierer,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I understand that your computer reaches the login screen but does not load the Desktop after you log in. In this situation, I would recommend working through the troubleshooting steps located in the attached article to help resolve the issue.

  • I've tried everything and still am unable to join my own wifi network from my iPhone 4s

    I have an AirPort Extreme running the latest software. I've tried everything and still am unable to join my own wifi network from my iPhone 4s, iPhone 3Gs, iPhone 3G, my girlfriend's iPhone 4. The only devices that will connect to the network are our MacBook Pros and iPads, (1 and 2). I have reset the airport to default settings, I've restored my iPhone, I've even disabled the password. I am still unable to join my open airport extreme wifi network. PLEASE HELP!

    Saying you tried everything isn't helpful. Perhaps describing in detail what you've done would allow people to better assist you.
    If you're ever experiencing strange problems connecting to any wifi point you can always try resetting your network settings on your iPhone itself. This solves the majority of wifi problems.
    To do this go to Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings. This will clear all of your saved wifi hotspots and passwords, and hopefully solve your issue.
    Please try this and respond with your results.

  • My computer crashed after an attempt to upgrade to Yosemite. I can't quit the installer and my MacBook keeps on restarting

    My computer crashed after an attempt to upgrade to Yosemite. I can't quit the installer and my MacBook keeps on restarting

    I Have a 2008 Macbook Pro 15". It was running issue free until I upgraded to Yosemite. Now my logic board is fried and apple will not fix it. It started with mail accounts unable to send mail, just had to delete accounts and re- install to fix that. But, at the same time as the download, I started intermittently getting a green tint over the screen along with a snowy static like an old TV set. Fearing that my download was corrupt, I re- installed Yosemite over-writing the previous version .  The green haze kept coming and going, but I also started getting strobe style white flashes in boxes in the 4 corners of my monitor. I had to do power button forced shutdowns because of pointer and keyboard function failure. Apple Genius desk told me it appeared to be a logic board failure but my computer was too old for them to work onand referred me to a Mac Specialist Center. I was told by both places that Apple installed defective logic boards back then due to changing solder formula. They extended product warranty by adding 1 yr but that still expired in 2012. I tried to post a warning on Mac Forums twice about Yosemite being a poison pill to certain platforms and my posts were pulled. The second attempt was responded to in my personal email account stating that if I don't stop posting derogatory comments, I will be blocked from forum. I am just trying to insert warnings in posts where I can. They haven't discovered that yet. Spread the word!
