First thing I'd try would be replacing the PRAM lithium battery, especially if you are the original owner and have never replaced the battery.
Easy enough to do. Flip the iMac over, open the access door and you can see the battery inside. 'Sometimes' rotating the battery in the holder (to build up heat which can build up a charge, of sorts) will get you by until you can get a new battery, available at radioshack-type stores. Be sure to check the expiration date on the bubble pack as some stores don't rotate their stock and you can end up paying full price for a 3-year old battery that is set to expire in less than six months. peg .
