[QUOTE="pm-r, post: 1611545, member: 175845"] One thing that most such sites don't stress enough when removing the glass from an iMac etc. is to keep fingers away and only use gloves or super clean lint-free cloths when handling it, especially the display and the inside of the glass. PS: One doesn't need fancy suction cups, and the large suction cups for hanging things or even the lever actuated ones you can purchase from one's local Dollar Store or Dollar Den usually work well. And use decent quality tools so as not to wreck the screws!!! ;) Edit: I notice Firefox mentioned in the KP Log, and if it's being used, make sure that its "[I]hardware acceleration[/I]", or any other application, is NOT enabled, as having it enabled can cause KPs that are hard to diagnose.
