iMac G5 isight not booting, screen remains black & fans start
Hello,
The iMac in question is a 2.1 G5 20" screen with iSight. It has worked perfectly with no problems up until recently, now when I go to switch on the chime sounds, the screen remains black and after about a minute the fans startup.
I have attempted to reset the SMU and PRAM to no avail.
I did manage (after several attempts) to boot into Target Mode with another mac connected by Firewire. The hard drive shows up and all the files seem to be there. I scanned the drive with TectTool Pro and repaired permissions, I also used Disk Warrior to rebuild the drive. Still the problem persists.
Tried to boot from CD but so far this has been unsuccessfull.
I have read of people having similar problems but have yet to find a working solution but I'm hoping there is one out there as the iMac was working wonderfully right up until this problem!
Thanks in advance
iMac G5 (20-inch iSight), Mac OS X (10.5.8)
