[QUOTE="starsintheskies, post: 1299812, member: 214700"] One of my friends has an iMac G5 and is having problems starting their Mac up. When they press the power button to turn it on, she encounters a grey screen with an apple logo with vertical lines akin to this: [IMG]http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_EDFqRcmDYac/TTq8o_Av2JI/AAAAAAAAAgo/v3SES9ECOcY/s1600/photo+5.JPG[/IMG] Image source: [url]http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_EDFqRcmDYac/TTq8o_Av2JI/AAAAAAAAAgo/v3SES9ECOcY/s1600/photo+5.JPG[/url] She then presses the power button again and the computer turns off. She turns it on again and the same thing happens: the grey apple logo screen with vertical lines. What could be the problem? Are there any solutions or would it be better if she bought a new iMac?
