Hi, my parents' eMac is having some trouble. The display has gone very dim. I can still see the dock and the windows on the screen, but barely. I checked the display settings, tried adjusting the resolution, looked in the Universal Access preferences, restarted the computer, and reset the PRAM (if that's what it's called).

It is a 1.25GHz eMac running 10.4.6. I wasn't making any changes or doing anything when the display went out. There was no noise or burning smell, or anything unusual... the display was just dim one day.

Has anyone else had this problem and determined a fix? If you had to take it into Apple was the repair expensive? Thanks for any advice.
