My macbook pro 17 inch mid 2010 had been warning me that my battery needed replacing for a while (maybe a year or more). Last weekend it wouldn't start up... no sign of life. I assumed the battery was to the culprit but when I checked, the power supply was plugged in and switched on. It would only boot up when I unplugged the magsafe and pressed the power button for 10 seconds, attached the magsafe and released the power after a further few seconds. It would shut down suddenly without warning a few times before fully booting. On a few occasions it would shut down after booting up. Now it doesn't get beyond the boot screen with the status bar before shutting down and restarting again.
I tried reinstalling the os via recovery, it shut down halfway through. Now it won't boot into recovery. Online recovery produces the error 6002f. Can't boot into aht mode. Tried a blank hdd but the optical drive is non responsive so I can't install an os via that way. I've attached some screen shots of errors before I tried reinstalling os (I think!)
Any help appreciated! Feeling stressed!
