[MBZ] OT: Frozen iMac computer at boot up
I was browsing a recipe website a couple days ago and my screen froze. I powered off but when I restarted it never got through the booting process. On several occasions it made it halfway through and then ended up with a white screen. I fiddled around with the keyboard and eventually was able to open up one more time. I should not have closed it out again, because now it is permanently disabled. I have a wireless keyboard. I believe this is a 2011 iMac which otherwise has been very dependable. I think I caught a virus.
