The same hardware (USB stick for AHT, external HD or USB stick for ASD) works fine with four other Mac portables, and two of them can access Apple Diagnostic (the 2014 & later version of AHT) from the Internet as they're supposed to (the others are too old to do so). So it seems this MBP is now somehow allergic to Apple's own EFI driver? However, MemTest86 (which also starts up from an EFI driver from a USB stick) still works fine with the MacBook Pro. I ran both AHT (Internet & USB) and ASD/EFI successfully a couple times only a few months ago something's changed, but I can't figure out what. I've reset the SMC and NVRAM, and reinstalled the OS (Sierra) numerous times, to no avail. The OS version of Apple Service Diagnostic works okay (it has an OS on it, and shows in the Startup Disk preference Pane), but the EFI version gives the same result as above. Same result when I try to run AHT from a USB stick, except this time it shows the above message twice – flashing by so quickly I had to get a video of it to see what it said – then immediately restarts into MacOS. If so, immediately make a backup and verify.Which sits there for about five minutes, then it restarts into MacOS. Verify that everything is working as it should.Once you have a stable system, use Migration Assistant to move your data over.Here, step 5, is where we’re going to figure out what’s causing your crashes. ![]()
