Failed MacBook?

Elephant08 :P · 22 Jan 2008 at 20:29

Right guys,

I turn on the Macbook, loads into windows (my macbook is only 1 month old).....then it will shut off, it has 100% battery, and is hooked up to the charger so is fully stable, it just switches off for some reason after 20 seconds in windows...

What can I do?....What buttons do I click to go into Mac on the start up screen, so maybe that might work.... ? :confused:

Please help me guys

It has OSX installed right? Hold Alt when it is booting up and you should see a boot menu. Boot into OSX and see if it stays up.

Haha, I've done that once.

I've done that myself. Set the brightness to nil, then shut the lid. I forget when I come back to it and think "why isn't this coming back on?"
