I have a A1706 MBPro which last year had a black screen issue with extended 45 degree screen opening, arghhhh but fine i can still connect to monitor and use. Today I started a Ventura update and unfortunately someone closed the laptop while cleaning. Now on boot up it just shows a static screen and no way to perform any actions. Any tips/advice? Hard to recover without seeing what i am doing. I have time machine backup but how would i navigate that in the dark.
Is it best to create bootable USB disk of Ventura and try that?
