and to avoid enter the safe mood restart your computer and keep clicking on the command + C while booting .

hope this solve the problem."

do you know @Josh Aarons this a logic board of macbook unibody 2.0 ghz without backlit keyboard in the pictures and ricca wants the pinouts of macbook pro mid 2010.

if you take a look at the question I posted you'll see a picture and I explain it. Not sure if your board looks the same as mine but usually they are larger than the other and looks like silver pads.

"Most likely it's the logic board. The damage is where the keyboard connects to the board.

Temp solution is when powering on press another key and hold it.

You can then use a usb keyboard!"

Here are pictures of me starting my mid 2010 MacBook Pro from the logic board. http://db.tt/lXy8z3GJ. Please be careful. They are near the keyboard flex ribbon. If it doesn't work with the battery plugged in unplug battery connector and plug only Into AC power. My model has this problem because of water damage that seems to have affected the relationship between power button and battery. If at any point after starting up you can use your power button , perform an SMC reset. Hope this helps.
