Either the capacitors on the logicboard have gone bad (look for bulging, a common problem on this line of Macs) or theres an issue with the graphic chip.

Here you'll find a guide to the capacitor problem, but be warned: lead free soldering on multi layer circuit boards is no easy task. Been there, seen it, done it, bought the t-shirt ;-)

Thanks, Have checked the logic board and found three caps where the tops are showing indications of a bulge. Sound like the logic board has to be replaced. I'm not up to doing the soldering. So it's off for repair. Have located a source that will guarantee a fixed price repair of iMacs.
