MacBook Pro - Distorted Video Issues and Repair Solution

All,

MacBook Pros manufacturered between approximately May 2007 and
September 2008 may exhibit distorted or scrambled video on the
computer screen, or no video on the screen. This could be caused by
the NVIDIA GeForce 8600M GT graphics processor.

If the specified graphics processor in a MacBook Pro has failed, or
fails within two years of the original date of purchase, Apple will
repair free of charge, even if the MacBook Pro is out of it's
original one year warranty. Apple will also refund a related repair
expense.
