hi ,
I've replaced all 25 bad capacators on my i mac g5 i had them done through a professional electronics company so know the work was done correctly.
However when i came to start it up for the first time (and everytime since)
i get the grey apple logo and spinning icon
can hear the disc drive test? can hear the fans .
And then the whole thing just closes down.(within a minute or so)
If i try starting with startup disc it does the same thing.
If i try starting with 'ctrl r p' i get a kernal panic? (black dialogue box telling me to re start)
Just before it broke on me i had sign in issues where i had to type in a command to re set my password.(black screen)
also did the led check with the back off and all was ok .
has anyone any ideas please?
much appreciated.
