I picked up an old mac book from my best friend for about 30 bucks, i plugged it in and it will turn on and the apple logo will show up with the loading bar/spinner moves, but it doesn't load anything and then the computer resets and starts the process over again, changed out the battery for one that charges and i've had it plugged in for a while to charge. I've tried to factory restore it but it doesn't work. Any way to factory reset it or is it a lost cause?
