Do you have access to an external display which you can plug in via DVI port on the system. Does it look clean? If it does then you have a bad display assembly and/or the displays data cable. If the image is the same then the logic boards GPU logic has an issue.

Dan, I actually have no idea what version I have, so apologies for confusion caused, it’s an older model. Unsure if I can display externally sorry ?

Hopeless information, novice to this sorry :(

@scosser73 if you can place here SERIAL NUMBER (will be somewhere on iMac - https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201634 ) by this we will know what model you have :) - not sure if it's 5K as the installation is for El Capitan (if I remember right) :)

Have no idea where serial number is as nothing to be seen on exterior of case

@scosser73 - The S/N is on the bottom of the foot, you can plug it into here EveryMac - Lookup let us know what you have and then we can move forward!
