Ok my friend who has the iMac has problems again... it's a slotloading CRT, special edition DV graphite one from back when... Anyway, whenever she tries to start it up it hangs on the grey screen and makes a horrible tonal-buzzing kinda noise - seemingly from the speakers or near the bottom of the computer, but we're not too sure (I'm on the phone with her) - she says it's more a weird electronic noise than a mechanical one... Computer won't start at all, from CD or anything... just stays on the grey screen. Noise will stop eventually but still nothing... oh, she's in 9.2, by the way... zapping pram did nothing, booting into open firmware works, noise is still there but it works, not that that accomplishes anything, but then once we typed in 'mac-boot' to go ahead, it went back to the grey screen...
any ideas?
