ok... i thought of that because i got the wire out of an old building my brother was remodeling and i had to splice a couple pieces together, but i used a tester on the cable and it seems fine --- besides its the same one that worked just last night on my old Mac. I don't think there can be anything wrong there but i don't know what the problem could be.
