Hi,
Usually when playing an online game called "Marble Blast Online" (via instantaction.com) my mac will lockup and go to a solid black screen. The computer will not respond to any keys pressed, front row remote, mouse, basically anything. The only way to get out is to hold down the power button on the back of the mac to force shut down the computer.
I've spoken to the game developers, and they say that it is probably defective hardware because all the other mac users seem to be able to play the game fine.
If this is so, which hardware do you think it would be? Something serious such as the motherboard, or simply a video card? How could I go about getting this fixed or replaced- take it to the genius bar?
Thanks.
