iMac 27" power problems
I am having powe issues with my iMac. I get nothing when I hit the power button. I have installed two different power supplies thinking maybe the first one was DOA, but not the case. There are also no LED lights lit on the logic board when I have it plugged in. I thought for sure it was a PS issue but I was wrong. Any help is appreciated. I have had this computer a little over a year and didn't purchase Apple Care.
Also, prior to this all happening I was hearing buzzing noises out of the back of the screen. I have read that this is a known issue.
Es esta una buena pregunta?

Did you get hit by lightning or have some power line issues just before you noted your system won't work? Do you have it plugged into a surge protector or UPS? Can you tell us more on what happened just when your system died?

No lightening and no power issues. Yes I have it plugged into a surge protector. Before the system was completely unresponsive I was noticing a buzzing sound coming out of the rear of the computer. Buzzing would change volume when I changed the brightness of the display, so I assumed I was starting to have a power supply issue. The buzzing issue happened for maybe 3 or 4 weeks and than one day when I went to restart my computer for an update, it failed to start back up again. No response what so ever when I toggle the power button.
Again, I have installed two different (new) power supplies and still no luck.
Thanks again!

Just so we're clear here, review this TN: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2674. None of these conditions apply correct? Fully dead not a bit of life. If thats so, lets start with the basics: Have you tried replacing the line cord and make sure the surge protector outlet is alive (plug in a light or something into the outlet). Sometimes the simplest problem is over looked.

Correct, none of those conditions apply. Computer is fully dead. I have tried multiple outlets, and yes, I have also plugged in lamps to verify outlets are working. I have also tried different power cords, still nothing.
