The Apple TV has an NVIDIA G72M chipset with 64 MB DDR2 video RAM.

Interspersed throughout the pictures are troubleshooting tips from Apple for when hardware failure inevitably strikes.

Flashing question mark: As most Mac owners are aware, a flashing question mark means the Mac can't find the OS-- signifying a bad hard drive or corrupted OS. The same can happen with the Apple TV, but Apple's suggested remedy is taking it in to an Apple Store.

No video: The Apple TV defaults to HDMI, so make sure you don't have HDMI plugged in if you want to use component video.
