Hi, I think my earyly 2008 imac has given up.

Today I got a gray screen with an apple logo, the loader icon is running for about 20 secs but then just freezes.

Ive tried everything I could find. Reset, power cable off, single user mode, safe mode, boot whith nothing attached, different outlet.

Also when I try to boot from dvd I get the same problem, it wont even boot
When I try to boot into windows I get a blue screen of death with 'unknown error'

I was wondering if any of you have an idea what could be causing this. I myself was thinking it could be the hdd but that doesn;t explain that I cant boot into cdrom does it ?
