imac g5 has dashes or lines going through my icons and the dock. What could be causing t?
I have an Imac g5 running os 10.4.11 and all of a sudden I get these dashes or lines that go through the icons, the sub menus at the top, the Doc, ad pretty much everything transparent. Also when using Word, where the pointer is on the screen a square area near it has a few lines that are dashed when anytime the point is on the windows screen. I have the computer hooked to another monitor as well and there is no change. Does anyone know what the problem is, how to fix it and how much it might cost. Note: it is not that way all the time but starts after a while.
If performance wise there is no change and just this visual annoyance, I can say with 80% certainty that your graphics card is going bad.
Just know that if you had a pc this could be fixed for $40.
Your first step is to see if there a graphics card to be replaced. Before you open up your computer, ground yourself by touching metal. So you don't fry components. Then take the back off the computer and look inside to identify the graphics card. See if it is replaceable. If it is you will be able to remove it. It should look something like this.

If the card is removable, go out and buy a lotto ticket because its your lucky day. It its not then you could either replace the motherboard, live with it, or build your own computer from newegg for real cheap, one that would blow the door off your old imac. It wouldn't need to run windows it could run Linux; I hear Ubuntu's similar to mac.
Email me if you need help with graphics stuff or with building a new computer.
According to this site a new mobo is $750

Good luck in whatever you do. I hope for your wallets sake the card is replaceable.
