I have an Intel Imac, my USB ports seemed to "short out" long ago, I

restart the computer, unplug all USB from the back of the computer,
restart the computer, then plug the USB stuff back in again. I have
been doing this for several years now - I was told to fix the USB
problem would be expensive.

Well I don't see a late 2008 20" iMac listed but I do see early ones.
So It sounds like logic board trouble to me. But it's a lot cheaper to
re-plug than replace if that's all thats wrong with it. Have you tried
the ASD 3S132 for 2008 or ASD 3S132 for 2009? One of these will test
the hardware way better than the AHT on you install disk. the ASD is
not the end all do all test but it may tell you if a logic board is at
fault.
