I am having an issue and have no clue what it could be. I have a colored imac. I was hearing these really odd cracking noises while using the computer one day. Then the next day the computer would not boot up. I hit the button on the computer to turn it on. It turns orange and then green like normal. Then right after it turns green the computer shuts off. Any ideas?

the old imacs are notorious for the logic boards just fruiting out
gut the HD, salvage what you can, bury the thing in the backyard under a rock

I think it something to do with the ghost button inside the Imac.
Press it and see.

yeah logic board probably, my DV went through about 3 or 4, crazy.

Sounds like a hardware failure. My old G4 just had a similar problem and I got raped for £400 to get it fixed.

- rasko40
a figment of his deranged imagination.
