[QUOTE="Utseay, post: 1143865, member: 146755"] The screen has multiple color lines and it won't get past the pin wheel screen. The best way to describe it is, it looks snowy like the racing ants you see on cable TV when you do not have the channel, but with color. Does this sound like the video card? Or could it be a capacitor issue? As is, is there any way to salvage whats on the HD? I'll probably just go buy a new iMac, since this one is 6 years old, but I got to get some stuff off the hard drive. Any ideas? [/QUOTE]
