Chosen Solution

Mac 17’’ 2.0Ghz Model A1208 Hello everyone, How can I fix my Display Problem with a lot of VERTICAL colourful lines all over my display. (OS X 10.6.8) Everything else works….. First of all what is the issue (I think it is the display itself - but how can i be sure)Any ideas how I can fix it quick and dirty ;-) ….. it is an old iMac and I don´t think it´s worth it to spend to much money on it….. Thanks in advance Best regards from Vienna Marlene Update (09/25/2017)
