Apple released a firmware update Wednesday for owners of 2009 unibody 17’ MacBook Pros meant to resolve issues with Nvidia graphics processors that have been causing display anomalies for some users.
Reports on March 6 described complaints related to the Nvidia GeForce 9600 graphics processor in new 17’ MacBook Pros that were causing lines to appear all over some users’ notebook displays, as reported in Apple support threads and in comments to Cult of Mac’s original post.
The firmware update released Wednesday applies only to 2009 model 17’ MacBook Pros. Users wishing to apply the firmware fix should consult Apple documentation for information on how to apply the update.
