Hi everyone,
I have an iMac G5 running OS X 10.4.8 that can't get passed the grey screen with the apple logo on start up. The fans also ramp up to full blast after a couple minutes. I'm looking for any suggestions. Here's what I've tried:
Unplugged all peripherals
Safe boot doesn't work
Reset NVRAM/PRAM
Reset SMU
Ran Disc Utility - Hard drive had no errors, there were some permissions errors, but these have been fixed and still no improvement.
Apple Hardware Test - no errors found in extended test.
I am totally stumped because this Mac does not have access to the internet, and no software or hardware updates have been made. Any ideas? Thanks.
