Well that would be nice. The screen has gone blank. The disk is fine, have just updated the backup by targetting from the iMac via Firewire. Will take the screwdrivers to it now to see if there's a cable loose...

Fudging Hell!

Took the keyboard off (rather simpler than taking an iMac apart, has to be said), fiddled with cables connected to the screen, unconnected the one that looked unconnectable, connected it back up again, powered up...and voilà.

I'm setting up shop as an Apple Service Centre...
