Q: you must restart your computer by holding power button

Losing my mind! Please help:

 

I have an early 2006 imac.. haven't had a problem in 10 yrs, now all of a sudden..

I upgraded from Tiger to Snow Leopard a few years back and make regular Time Machine backups. First I started having problems copying files to my external drives. Did the usual.. reset pram & tried to repair permissions/disk with disk utility. When that stopped working, I tried disk utility from my eDrive (Tech Tool Pro 7) & safe mode... still had problems. So I ran Disk Warrior and that's when everything got really bad. It said it repaired disk and let me log back in successfully- everything seemed to be working temporarily but when I tried to Shut Down computer I started getting that grey screen- "You must restart computer by holding power button...etc etc."

After 3 days of trying every repair I could think of including all tools in Tech Tool Pro, I decided to wipe the hard drive, assuming I could restore a backup from Time Machine...nope. It let me install snow leopard but would not boot up. It let me restore Time Machine backup and still wouldn't boot up. So I figured maybe hard drive is shot, so I did the same with a working external drive (installed Snow Leopard & Time Machine backup)- still will not boot up. I keep getting that grey (hold down power button to restart) screen almost immediately after rebooting. I get the white screen, apple pops up, but instead of spinning wheel.. grey screen of death. Safe mode no longer works so all I can do is boot edrive (Tech Tool Pro 7), where I can still see all of my files on both internal & external hard drive, so I know they're still there, somewhere. Here is the problem report, Please Help me :
