Blue Screen on iMac

It is not completing the boot sequence. See if it will boot from the original system installation disk. If so, go to the second screen pull down menu to Utilities -> disk utility and see if you can repair the hard drive.

Yes indeed. The serial number is W8444xxxxxx. Is this important?

This machine falls into the bad capacitor issue group. Open the unit and inspect the capacitors for swelling and/or corrosion. Poor luck has been had with replacing these caps. Power supply replacement will generally keep the machine running for another year if it goes first. To know the problem look at the diagnostic LEDs on the motherboard. There is a wealth of information on this site about this issue, do a search for capacitor. also check at www.jimwarholic.com
