Hey guys,
I purchased new ram and a SSD from OWC last week.
After watching the installing videos and managing to take everything apart, install the parts, then put everything back together, my iMac won't display any video.
I can hear the boot chime after pressing the power button, but no video.
Also while the display is off the computer, I can see the 3 LED status lights green.
I've tried putting old ram back in. Putting old HD back in. Checked all ribbons and cable connections.
Finally took it to a Mac repair shop here in Austin, TX. They said I might need a new logic board. $500!!
Took it to another shop to get second opinion, because the OWC support said that shouldn't happen.
Any suggestions?
Thanks!
