White screen of death?
Hi all. I have a 17" macbook pro, 2011 model with an i7 processor.
I am having troubles starting it up. When i start it up normally it starts to a flashing folder because i stupidly erased the HDD thinking that was the problem. I have tried loading internet recovery and the globe appears, i enter my WiFi password and then after a few minutes an apple logo appears but shortly after the screen flashes black and then goes to a white/grey screen and just stays there.
I'm thinking it's a GPU fault but im hoping that there may be a brain box out there with an easy fix for me!
Thanks in advance

Yeah resetting those things don't matter when you have erased the Drive. When you erased how did you go about doing so? Did you reformat the Drive? Do you have a installer with an OS on it?
