[QUOTE="techiesteve, post: 1951805, member: 98520"] I was still working on older iMacs until last October when I had a moderate stroke (left hand recovered within a month) and am now retired. Retirement was overdue as I'm almost 74. The most likely reason for failure would have been the power supply. Replacing the power supply would have been reasonably economical with a used part, but not viable on a 12 year old iMac. As you have the HD out and access to your data all is well. [/QUOTE]
