I hope someone can help - I've just moved to Perth from the UK - I have a 12' powerbook which is running fine, but when I plugged in my blue slot loading imac (512mb ram, 10.3) last night (after waiting 6 weeks for it) the colours on the screen were all skewy (greens in the corners, pinks, etc). I had a look at the apple website and it said that imac crt displays were configued to the particular hemisphere they were produced and sold - hence the magnetic fields in the southern hemisphere are completely different to the northern. LCD displays are not affected.
My question is - is there anyway round this - I will try updating to mac os 10.3.2 tonight - (the firmware is already 4.1.9) - I have tried deguassing (the imac does it on startup automatically) - is there a manual way to deguass it? Will it get better? Also the clock keeps reseting to January 1970 - that's not the pram battery is it? - I thought it was a problem with Mac os 10? Cheers Andy
