I have an iMac 2.66 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo with 4 GB ram, 800 MHz running 10.6.3. Everything has been running perfectly until a couple of incidents in the last week or so.
I have had an instant screen failure, both times when trying to move files with the mouse. Half way through dragging the files from one folder to another the screen blacks out. I can still hear that the computer is on, but there is no way of "waking up" the screen. The only way out seems to be holding down the power button until the computer switches off, then restarting. On restart everything is fine again. Has anyone else experienced this? Does anyone know if this is a software or hardware problem? When everything starts up fine again, it has been more of an inconvenience than anything else, but I do wonder if it is actually going to start up again next time!
