Hello everyone,
I have a very annoying problem with my 20inch intel imac.
I shut the imac down, wake up the next morning, press the power button ont he back to boot up, everything switches on, i can hear the hard drive working, and the fan blowing but the screen does not come on and it does not play that startup sound. It just stays this way until i have to shut it down manually by holding down the power button. When i then try to boot up again by holding the power button down... it works! I have to do this nearly every time i boot up now, only occasionally will it let me boot up first time. I also have the same problems when the imac goes to sleep sometimes, it will wake from sleep ( i can hear the harddrive switching back on and the fan) but the screen will not come on. I then have to resort to just powering down the imac by holding the power button.
hope anyone can help
cheers
