Ive got an old Late 2006 24" iMac and it won't boot.
When i start the mac get the Bong and then it takes a few minutes to show the apple logo it then shows the loading icon and thats as far as it gets (I've left it at that screen for about 2 hours).

Ive tried to boot of a disk and in safe mode and all the other modes it just does the sam thing....help.
 
Usually that means capacitor failure or GPU failure to not allow boot like that as kernel panic. Usually.
