The following day while I was enjoying my first ever experience of owning and using a Mac it happened. I repaired the thin silver (pcb to keyboard) ribbon cable and that got all the keys and the touch pad working.
It fired up OK but although the power switch worked none of the keyboard keys or the touch-pad functioned. I obtained a Magsafe 1 PSU and fired up the machine. The machine is a July 2008 Macbook (one of those white plastic ones) and when it was given to me I was told that occasionally the screen would go black but shutting the top down them opening it up again would usually get the screen back again. I'm currently trying to get an elderly Macbook back up and running but have run into a few problems and am hoping someone might be able to point me in the right direction. I'm Chris, a retired field service engineer who spent the past thirty seven years travelling all over the world installing, servicing and repairing all kinds of scientific and medical equipment. This is my first post after joining yesterday so hopefully I'm posting this in the correct section.
