Will my iMac run without nvidia card?
iMac "Core 2 Duo" 3.06 24-Inch (Early 2008)
Will my iMac display anything if I disconnect the NVidia graphics card?
Full story:
No prior symptoms, screen goes crazy after only 20 mins use. Restart mac, pink horizontal squiggles cover grey/white boot screen. Apple logo appears and wheel spins for awhile before freezing - every time.
After some internet searching try hardware test 6+ times, no result.
Try booting to safe mode, loading bar shows and makes it to about 30% before freezing.
Reset pram, lines are now pink vertical lines but otherwise it is the same.
Removed front bezel from case, all 4 LED's light and stay lit even after it freezes.
Internet searching shows removing a graphics file may get this usable so I can save my data but I can't get it to boot far enough to find the file.
I was in best buy today looking at replacements and Apple sells iMacs with and without independent graphics cards. So I'm wondering, can I get mine usable with the NVidia card unplugged? Because I'm looking at it with the LCD removed, and my soidey sense is going off...
Thank you in advance!
Это хороший вопрос?
