So I have had one hell of a weekend with my hack that had been working fine for about 8 months straight. I had been leaving my machine on for a few days (very bad practice, I know) and this saturday it froze up while just browsing the internet. Like a bad freeze where you can't even move the mouse.
I tried a hard shut down, reboot, and I got the little progress bar that checks all of your files to make sure nothing was corrupted after the hard shut down. So it goes through the whole thing fine, but when it finishes the scan and looks like it is about to continue on its merry way and boot up, it shuts down. Fans off, cold shut down. It doesn't restart, it just sits there until I try again. It doest the exact same thing.
After wiping the hard drive, I went through my boot disk to reinstall mac OSX. It freezes at about 30% through the install. Hard shut down, try again, same result. The only thing I can think of that would be wrong wrong with it is the motherboard (gigabyte b75m-d3p) I really don't have the $350 to get a new, decent motherboard and a cpu to go with it (I am broke as hell XD). Please help!
