Can't boot after replacing iMac logic board
I just replaced my logic board in my 27" i7 imac after I broke off the display port connector on my original logic board. It booted the first time I tried, but the fans were on constantly and I forgot to reattach the wifi cable so I took it apart again.
Then I turned it on without the display installed to see if the fans were running normally. They were so I powered it down by holding down the power button. I then installed the display and proceeded to boot it up again.
I cannot get it to boot now. It is stuck on the apple logo with white background and the loading bar moves slowly towards the end but it never leaves this screen. I have tried SMC reset, pram reset, safe boot, boot to recovery partition, booting from external USB drive, booting to disk utility.
How can I fix this? Why did it boot the first time and now it won't?
Is this a good question?
