Theo Posted January 17, 2016 Posted January 17, 2016 Mmmm We can do 1 thing, remove cpu And take a look at cooling paste. If it's dry remove it and put fresh paste on, then try again. Think Your cooling paste is dried out as fan kicks in hard. Clean cpu and fan, then add some new paste, use plastic gloves, it is toxic, rub some on cpu and fan, then try again. Think that is the problem. Let us know. Good luck. Theo Girlscanplay2 1

We have an Apple repair technician who comes in to my workplace several days per week, so I'll be taking it in for him to have a look at. Even if he manages to get it going again, I think it's still time for it to be replaced, which is something I actually wanted to do 2 years ago. My main concern at this stage is my data. Fingers crossed... Kev
LSP_Kevin Posted January 17, 2016 Posted January 17, 2016 Well, I've just logged in to my PayPal account, and I have to say that l'm blown away! And quite humbled in fact. I'm posting via my iPad at the moment, and it's a bit tedious, so l regret that I can't thank you all individually, but rest assured that I am deeply grateful. Kev geedubelyer 1
alaninaustria Posted January 17, 2016 Posted January 17, 2016 I just sent €50 for you Kev! Use it towards a new computer- please NO refunds accepted!! LSP_Kevin, Girlscanplay2, Lee White and 1 other 4
ericg Posted January 17, 2016 Author Posted January 17, 2016 Wow guys, what a response! Just goes to show, this is the best modelling site around. Kev, speaking for myself, any funds left over could always be put towards one of those new fangled mask cutting machines that you have been wanting for so long hey? Eric. geedubelyer, alaninaustria and Girlscanplay2 3
LSP_Kevin Posted January 17, 2016 Posted January 17, 2016 You guys are amazing! Kev alaninaustria and geedubelyer 2
Simmo.b Posted January 17, 2016 Posted January 17, 2016 Just chucked in 50 bucks Kev, the least I could do after all your help with my stolen birthday present last year, pay it forward is my motto! Best of luck Brent geedubelyer, Girlscanplay2, LSP_Kevin and 1 other 4
LSP_Kevin Posted January 17, 2016 Posted January 17, 2016 Thanks, Brent! And to Alan and Dan, too. What really blows me away is the amounts you guys are willing to contribute. I expected (and would have been fully happy with) lots of small amounts, $1 to $5 maybe - or perhaps even nothing at all! Just incredible generosity. Kev alaninaustria and geedubelyer 2
BloorwestSiR Posted January 17, 2016 Posted January 17, 2016 I just sent in $25 towards your new computer Kev. Carl Girlscanplay2, LSP_Kevin, Derek B and 1 other 4
