[QUOTE="hughvane, post: 1306526, member: 56231"] A clicking noise suggests to me that the hard drive has died. Since however you describe it as an "electrical" clicking noise, it could be the psu, or, the logic board :(. Worth fixing? Only you can answer that really. Check out the costs of replacement parts such as the psu and the l/b, and if they're more than or close to the cost of a replacement iMac, consider a newer machine. [/QUOTE]
