mikenguyen Posted January 15, 2004 Share Posted January 15, 2004 My stupid brother was playing on my mac and then he tried to turn it off by pressing the power button...the mac then went to sleep mode, so he then pulled out the power cord and now when i try to turn in on, the light shows for about 2 seconds and then turns back on. :angry: anyone know how to fix this? Thanks, Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
betasp Posted January 15, 2004 Share Posted January 15, 2004 It is not permenatly broken. I had this problem before. There is a black button about an inch from the battery on the motherboard. If I remember right, you press it in and hold it for 12 seconds then press the power button. It resets something. Look it up in the apple knowledge base. It fixed my problem the first time.
