Joan, you are pressing the button on the back of the iMac to boot? I know that is a stupid question. Do you have a installer disk to boot from?

What happened is that the screen after a bit of revolving gear and the little progress line at the bottom went blank and the computer turned off. Now it won't reboot in any mode. I am running OS 10.8.2 on an iMac with a Mac wireless keyboard and track pad. I am wondering if the wireless keyboard could be the problem.
