Hello All, Could use some advice, my brother has a iMac specs:
iMac 233 Rev A or B (Not Sure, but I�m thinking A) 512 MB OS 9.1 Boots up just fine, after about 5 minutes the monitor shrinks from side to side and then the computer shuts down. It will reboot right away and do the same thing all over again. If it�s the crt going out, will that cause the computer to auto shut down? I checked the low end mac site and it seems that Rev A has no external video port but Rev B does. Can someone verify this? I had my brother look for a external video port and he claims there is only a modem phone jack port and the usb ports and ethernet. Anywhere else to look for an external video port? I�m thinking to test if it�s the CRT, to unplug the internal video connector and hook up an external monitor. Can this be done? If it still has the same problem then I would think it�s the video card. Can it be replaced? Is there an actual video card or is it part of the motherboard? Maybe it�s time for him to get a Mini?
