HI fellow UHHer's
Thanks for all your input on whats going on with my MBPro 15". The cursor ran wild, the screen images went large then small, all without me touching my laptop.
Turns out I have faulty fans in this old mid 2014 MBPro.
The laptop is only worth $250a t best, repairs of any kind equal that.
A local Woodstock tech put me on to a cooling fan for laptops. $30.
It two weeks with limitless power on, and no problems.
Yes, I'm investigating a new laptop...maybe an Air 15".
My 2008 MBPro has been stellar since I disconnected the internet on it, its just a PS station, mind you all from 2008. I save all my work on 4 external HD's.
In case any of you have this issue, look at my 2 attached photos.
