[QUOTE="Raz0rEdge, post: 1783834, member: 110816"] Traditionally, if there is a software issue (regardless of where it is), going into safe mode should allow the machine to boot up to discern what the issue is. The Mac startup sound does mean that the system thinks everything (hardware wise) is in order. The iMac is an all-in-one computer and there likely no user-replaceable parts on the logicboard save maybe the CPU. [/QUOTE]
