Random OS Crashing with Screen Going Black but Power Stays On

Originator:dchello
Number:rdar://49800699 Date Originated:04/10/2019
Status:open Resolved:no
Product:Mac OS Product Version:Mac OS 10.7.5 (11G63)
Classification:crash/hang/hardware Reproducible:random/sometimes
 
Summary:  Occasionally at random times, the iMac 24-Inch, Late 2006 will just go black but stay powered on until I press and hold the power button to hard shut down then power-on again.

I’ve tried replacing the hard drive (was failing), coin cell battery (was low), and cleaned dust from fans.  I’ve tried checking the RAM with MEMTEST 86+ for days with no errors.  The problem still occurs.

I recently removed one of the RAM modules (1GB).  The modules are of the same manufacturer (ELPIDA) and listed on the sticker as:  PC2-6400S-666.  Does it matter that one was 1GB and the other is 2GB?  I'm not sure if these iMacs run in dual-channel?

If possible I would greatly appreciate some help deciphering this error report so I may determine what is causing the random crashing.  Thank you.


Steps to Reproduce:  Just be using the iMac at any given time, browsing web; even just minutes or hours after rebooting; or whenever.


Expected Results:  Normal operation of the LCD screen and no crashes expected.


Actual Results:  iMac LCD panel goes black but fan still runs.  After hard power-off then power on, Problem Reporter appears with text details of the issue.


Version/Build:  Mac OS 10.7.5 (11G63)


Configuration:  1x 2GB 667MHz DDR2 SDRAM (Mftr: ELPIDA)
