[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1624706, member: 56379"] Your iMac probably has two ram slots (both occupied). Remove one stick of ram…then test. If problem remains…then remove the installed stick of ram…and insert the other one. If still problems…then probably something on the logic board. I'm guessing you mean the "Apple Store":)…the "App Store" won't do you much good. The "App Store" is a virtual place.;) I would sort of say…forget about the Apple Store for two reasons: 1. With a 2007 iMac…the Apple Store will consider this "vintage"…and probably not work on it. 2. If they did look at it…it will most likely be the logic board. And a replacement logic board will cost more than the current total value of the computer. This is why I mentioned above that a bad logic board is "not a good thing". A bad logic board on a 2007 iMac makes it a "door-stop" or parts computer. Hopefully it's the ram.:) - Nick [/QUOTE]
