Used only to play iTunes through 828 interface to speakers and play movies and film clips via VLC into TV.
Battery cycled once a month through the years - still charges to 98, sometimes 100%!
Suddenly now it keeps rebooting but not quite getting there:
30 vertical pink-and-white stripes on screen whilst progress bar updates until it goes light-grey and then freezes or reboots.
Tried:
Resetting parameter RAM.
Booting from both internal drives - 500GB 840 EVO SSD and (750GB?) spinner.
Booting from recovery partition.
Disconnecting USB iTunes and movie drives.
Disconnecting 828 FireWire interface.
Disconnecting HDMI adapter used to connect to TV.
Disconnecting pawer cable.
OS 10.13.6 High Sierra.
At a loss. Unit's been flawless for 13 years. Seriously-bummed 'cause I rely on it for entertainment every day.
Any help will, as always, be greatly-appreciated guys.
