That can kill even the external video. Try external video. If that does not work then try modifying some of the hardware (remove a RAM stick). This will trick the iMac into thinking it is someone else and make the upgrade possible. Worst case scenario is you pull the board and put it into a different iMac and upgrade it there. -- Kyle H.
