iMac intel 17" early 2006
I have seen threads,here and elsewhere, regarding my issue but can't seem to find the resolutions. Any help here would be GREATLY appreciated.
Problem: overnight,while computer was on, I lost the use of half of my monitor display. Initially it was dark (after Apple Care had me restart using: Command-Option-P-R) now it is white. There is a vertical band of color lines between the working and non-working portions of my display.
After researching this online for several minutes and finding discussions and even You Tube content (!!) I find it maddening that Apple Care would pretend to not know anything about this.Regardless...I see references to the inverter board (?) needing to be replaced.
Has anyone survived this ordeal to tell their story(or has Mac had them "silenced"? )
Again,any info (cost...etc) and I will lobby for a holiday in May in your honor.
