Help -Hillfe! My screen just turned black - no light- just so.
The iMac itself works, right now I am sharing files from it on my
iBook. What might I need? a new bulb? monitor, screen? It is as if I
had switched off the light. I hear the mail come in. Shall I turn it
off?: I need to do it
uh-oh.
Have you used the brightness keys on the keyboard. I have to ask that.
If they don't work, try holding the FN key down while using the
brightness keys. (Function Key, not the curse word)
If that doesn't work, either the inverter board, or back light have
went out on your LCD.

My reply assumed that you were using an iMac with an LCD.

Sounds like a bulb. You can often shine a flashlight through the
Apple logo on the back to gain enough illumination to see the desktop
and allow for normal shut down...jf

No go, light does not leak through, also the Ray's undo-plug thing
did not work. It boots up fine, but no picture of any kind - black
night has descended.

My back light went out just a few months ago. Back to Apple it
went. It works now. Could that be it?

Probably, at least something of the sort.
