    LG 5K sudden death

    Hi folks, I have an iMac with 2 LG 5Ks. They've worked perfectly for few months. Today they both won't power up / be recognised - 1 stopped then the other stopped an hour later. My MBP won't see them either. Changed all the cables round. Did a PRAM reset. They're def getting power. Cables are...
