Parts, tools, and supplies from Beetstech. This logic board has an onboard, upgraded 2.3GHz quad-core i7 (i7-3615QM) processor. I think I am really unlucky for a server model to die just after the 1 year warranty. The mac mini is different as it is still the latest model and there is very little info. I think I have lost my faith in Apple as my 5 year old PC is still going strong I was able to get it back in action by baking the logicboard in the oven at 200 degrees for around 8 minutes!! It had slightly different symptoms as I still had some sign of life but a repeating startup chime. I had a 2.6 macbook pro also die this year. I know that this does not verify that it is not dead as I would have to test current draw but it is very unlikely that it is the culprit from what I have read.Īnyway, I suspect it is the logic board!! Has anyone had success getting a logic board repaired or baking one in the oven? With such a new mac I can not believe it and am now not loving mac at all.

I have removed the internal power suply and got a stready 12V DC supply on the motherboard end. I have also done the obvious SMC and PRAM resets.


I have tested the cable with a multimeter and all is fine. Basically, my A1347 i7 2.0 GHz Quad Core Mac Mini is 13 months old and I left it on sleep overnight to wake up and find it stone cold dead.
