Hi everyone
I've owned my iMac for just over a year. Last week on start-up I just got a grey screen and three beeps. I turned it off, unplugged it and left it for a few minutes. It worked and everything was good again.
Yesterday the same thing happened and this time its not starting.
A bit of investigation said that this was a RAM issue so I followed the instructions and re-seated both 1GB RAM modules. This still didnt work, so Ive made an appointment to take it to the Apple Store for them to have a look at it. Im glad that I took out Applecare now.
I have been backing up to an external hard drive, however, I wanted to make sure that the last documents that I had been working on are backed up ok.
On my way in to work this morning I wondered if its possible to run the iMac on just one of the RAM modules? Should it work in either slot or one in particular? Its an aluminium iMac so they are side by side.
Any help would be great
