thebestdj07 Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 Hi i just bought a macbook 1.8 core duo from ebay.. it sounds like a battery issue to me but maybe someone who knows mac's more can confirm. here is what is posted. . "The computer boots up but the screen goes dim, then goes into sleep mode. You can wake it up but it remains dim. I believe the battery is done as i was haveing draining issues when it worked. I pulled the HD and put it in another macbook of mine and erased all the data and installed a fresh copy of OSX leapord to see if that would help. It did not."

hecker Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 Hmm, it's always risky to buy things off ebay and older MacBooks are known for having some problems. It sounds like it could just be the battery, though. It should work normally when plugged to the AC adapter.
