Jonas,
I know this is a couple of days late, but here in DC we are having our
highest snowfall total winter since 1870 and I have been without power
and away from the lists until today.
Please do not post attachments on the lists. There are still people on
dial up and some on metered service ton the list. In the future,
either offer to email the attachment off list to interested parties,
or to post the jpeg on a photo sharing site and post the link in your
email.
Thanks,.

Hi all, someone gave me this iMac the other day, and it has the
dreaded graphics issue: Anything of a light color on the screen is
distorted and has small lines and distorted pixels. (see picture)
I've determined this is not a screen problem because I took a screen
shot and opened it on another machine and saw the problem still.
Here is what I've tried:
Zapped pram
Reset nvram
Reset SMU
Reinstalled the OS
Cleaned inside and re seated all the cables.
Checked capacitors, there is NO swelling or leaking
Is there something I can try to fix the graphics chip? What exactly
is the problem? Thanks in advanced!
P.S It is the 2nd generation imac 20" with a 2.0GHZ G5 Processor.
