Hey,
I have a Slot Loading iMac G3 with OS X 10.4 running on it.
For the past week or so (Since I got it) it has been running fine. Everything has worked.
Earlier on today, I was just looking on the web and playing some tunes, and it crashed. Basically it had crashed and I could do anything. A bit of the music was repeating over and over as music does when computers crash.
Anywho, I restarted it using the power button on the front, and when it started up, it "chimed", and then got stuck as a black screen. I can restart it multiple times and it will do the chime sometimes and not others. But there is always a blank screen.
I did some googling, and most of the results mentioned Firmware. I would agree with this, but, OS X has been running on it fine for about a week.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
I don't think it has a VGA port, but I haven't looked. Partially cause I dunno where to look.
Thanks for your help,
Chris [Who has little Mac knowledge]
