[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1642233, member: 46727"] Well, that really doesn't help since it does not show us the entire crash log. However, if it's crashing in Safe mode that eliminates software and points directly to hardware. There are two common things that can cause those crashes: The hard drive, but yours appears to at least pass the verify test. The second thing would be the graphics processor (GPU). GPU failure on the 24" iMacs was in fact quite common. The graphics card in your iMac is on a separate daughter card which plugs into the logic board. It in fact can be changed out, however, a replacement card is quite expensive and it's not a job that's easy to do. And, we can't really be sure that the GPU is the culprit. [/QUOTE]
