[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1762547, member: 46727"] Welcome to our forums. It's difficult to say what has failed, but if I had to make a guess... the graphics chip probably has failed (common problem in that machine). That means a new logic board if you want to get it going again. And yes, you can remove the hard drive and place it in a SATA external enclosure to get your data off it. Or you can use an adapter. OWC ([url]www.macsales.com[/url]) sells the adapter. BTW, that machine is a dinosaur. You don't want to spend a lot of time and $$ on it. [/QUOTE]
