Screen Brightness while installing Mac OSX Snow Leopard
Is your laptop screen going dim when attempting to install Mac OSX 10.6 Snow Leopard? I figured I’d just mention this for those who have yet to install it.
I recently purchased a family pack and I proceeded to install the new OS on my unibody Macbook Pro–no problem there. Then I proceeded to install it on my circa-2007 all-gray Macbook Pro-and noticed that the screen went to minimum brightness. Initially, I thought it fell asleep, but after restarting it, it kept going dim. I then tried plugging in different external monitors–with no luck (the monitors kept turning off).
Finally, I came across this post on Mac Forums where someone used a flashlight behind the screen to find their cursor and complete the process. Hopefully, the word’ll get out.
