Swap Graphics card with a new one, possible?!
-What kind of iMac I have:
iMac Intel 20" EMC 2266
-What I have in my iMac:
NVIDIA GeForce 9400 256 MB graphics
-Long story short:
Bought Mac (excited!)
Have had Mac around 3 years (loving it!)
Screen went black (slightly able to see it running with hand held light pointed at it!)
Tried resetting (SMC) 3 times (no go!)
Now using a used monitor next to it in mirroring mode (which is how I am here typing this out!)
Upon a lot of reading some say graphics card might have busted somehow or just backlight issue (hoping a disconnect wire could fix it!)
Never actually seen anywhere about the graphics card being replaced, with same graphics card of course (not possible to upgrade, I already know!)
PLEASE HELP :(
Is this a good question?
