Red pixels all over my LCD display

[biga935]

2 years ago I had bought this iMac 2GHz Intel Core 2 Duo and its on version 10.5.3. It came with tiger and when I installed leopard I started getting all these red pixels. I have no idea if its a software problem or hardware problem. Someone please help!!!!!!!!

Can you post a photo o the screen, so we have an idea what this looks like?

A picture really would help us identify the problem.

Not a command-shift-3 photo

get a camera and take as good of a shot that you can of your computer

Interesting. Based on how that looks I don't see how it could be anything other than a hardware problem.

Gotta be a screen issue. If it were graphic-card based then it would look a LOT worse.

more like this:

Very odd, though.

Either way, I would contact Apple and ask them if they could look over it (whether you ring AppleCare or take it to a store). Hopefully it won't be too expensive! What size screen is it?

Honestly, it looks like someone's taken something to it and pressed on it REALLY hard. (looks like a thumb mark in the midst of the bottom red bit, and the top bit looks like someone got a retractable-nib pen and scribbled on your screen)

Try zapping the PRAM.

Its Fixed!!!!!!!

Alright when I took it into the apple store the most bizarre thing happened. All the red pixels went away.😕I guess while I was driving there something moved in the computer which fixed it I guess. Thanks for all the help though.

Lets give it some time.
You never know if the problem could appear again.

..But we sure hope not!
