Re: iMac 27-inch, Late 2009 big problem

Yes I think the same thing, i tried everything from the outside.

From the font i cleaned the inside screen besel and there was a lot of black dust.

the inside ventilation must be clogged sort of.

I will schedule a full cleaning at the dealer.

this is not a friendly machine to tear down.
