Nice! Got my laptop back today and so far so good.
Edit: This is still happening >:
I'm assuming it won't be covered for the repair extension program since it's not a "video issue" even though when I start up vlc sometimes I get the same scramble for the windows behind VLC.
Tried the PRAM reset and still nothing. And my screen turns blue now every time I open photoshop. WTHHHHH
Take it back to Apple. This is how mine started out and it did that for months. By the time I brought it in the other day it wouldn't even get to the login screen before completely killing the video display.
What I've been reading on the macrumors forums is that if you end up having it worked on 3 times, they've been quietly just giving people a new macbook.
Good luck bro. I have the notorious 2011 15" macbook. Logic board replaced two times already
Finally apple decided to admit they had faulty models with that replacement program.
I'm actually hoping my video card goes out before that program expires so i can at least prolong its life span.
My advice max out the RAM
2011 MBP just stuck on white screen when booting up. Mustve reset 100+ times over a 14 hour period
Oh well, I ordered a new 15" retina a week ago after having similar problems for a while and bumped it up to 1TB storage and it should get here Monday.
This morning I had to swap my hard drive out from my crapped out MBP to an even older white macbook to at least save my itunes library on an external

Another logic board case.
Yup I did some research and its def a logic board issue. Been dealing with it since the new year which is very convenient because apple care just ran outSame thing happened to me a while back.

Figured I'd just upgrade and have something fresh for the next few years
Just got a seagate external, and it's only allowing me read only access. Is it useless on a MBP/Mac?
Shouldnt you just be able to format the drive to FAT32 to allow read/write access on apple machines?
Also, does anyone have an idea of how much money I could get for a late 2011 MBP 15inch being sold for parts/repair?
It has the logic board issue but other than that is in great condition.
How much could I get without a harddrive included? With it included? Thanks for any estimates.
