Hi All
Anyone have any ideas what may be causing the following issues in an
iMac DV SE and how to rectify them:
"3 strikes" before powering up, I have to reset it twice before the
screen will come on and the chime happens
Surging/flickering in speakers, they buzz and make a flickering sound
even when the iMac is shut down and head phone in
Visible screen refresh, the centre of the screen is clear but the edges
seem to roll and quake. I think that has something to do with the kinks
in the black cable that surround the CRT for some magnetic thing???
crashing in fullscreen mode for most Open GL games especially games
that launch movies
It is using an older IDE HD taken from a beige G3 and I received it
dismantled so more than likely there's static discharge damage
extra info: running 128MB RAM, OS 9.2, 4.2 GB HD rather than 13GB
Anyone else had extreme issues like this or know what's the best option
apart from part harvesting or trash? Is there hope?
Regards Christian
