[QUOTE="IcerC, post: 187212"] Hi Z, I had the same problem. It sounds like its a recall problem. [url]http://www.apple.com/support/imac/repairextensionprogram/[/url] Serial Number ranges effected: * W8435xxxxxx - W8522xxxxxx * QP435xxxxxx - QP522xxxxxx * CK435xxxxxx - CK522xxxxxx * YD435xxxxxx - YD522xxxxxx Call apple and tell them you you need have an imac with a recall problem. If you can you should want to shut it off untill you get it fixed. Doing the hard shutdown (hold the power button) [u]will[/u] ruin your harddrive. I drove mine to the nearest mac athorizred retailer and he fixed it right up under warranty. If you know where a mac dealer is just drive it by. :) [/QUOTE]
