For Sale: Summer 2000 iMac DV SE Graphite 500 mHz, 256MB RAM, DVD/CD-ROM, 30 Gig HD. Boots and runs fine, but black (sometimes faint video) screen. Diagnosed by The Computer Store in Portland, OR as needing new logic board (est. repair: $305)
(Personally, I think it's the analog/power/video board that's bad)
Selling AS IS: $200 + shipping, OBO

Yeah, test it with an external monitor and I may be interested.

Also tried a main reset with the internal reset button located somewhere near the battery - no success)
Bad video board?
