I have an imac whose led light turns on at start up but nothing happens. I have unplugged and let sit for a few hours and a couple of times it would boot up, but 15 seconds or so after trying to open system it will pop and go black with led light still on.

I can't even get the startup sound any more. I push the power button and all that happens is the light turns green, nothing else. Does this still sound like the P/A/V board?
