After normal operation it boots up on a white screen

Hello,
I pushed the power button on my 27 inch iMac from 2009 (11,1 model) with Lion one day and left the room. When I returned the Mac was in a blank white screen with mouse cursor movement and volume/brightness/DVD keys response. It also starts the Bluetooth discovery utility if my mouse or keyboard are turned off. I tried to get at the menubar or the lower programs tray without result and since I'm used to windows (sic!) I pressed the power button for a few seconds until it stopped working.
Anytime I power up now it goes to the same white screen and does nothing. Tried SAFE MODE (the SHIFT key while booting), tried PRAM reset (CMD+ALT+P+R keys while booting). Single boot (CMD+S while booting) didn't worked. I also booted from recovery partition and used DISK UTILITY to check my hard drive for errors and fix them. It did find some errors, it reported them fixed but the white screen is still there. Most of the reports on this issue said that the things I did should repair this issue, but for me it didn't. Please advise.
Thank you.
