- G5 Quad, 4gb RAM
Hi there,
Firstly, I'm new here - so hello all!
This post is regarding a G5 quad with 4Gb RAM.
I am having a small issue with my G5 regarding booting up. When I turn the computer on it does all the normal things, including the chime, the hard drive starts to initialize but then clicks three or four times and stops. The computer then freezes on a grey screen and the hard drive starts to try and initialize again, it clicks three or for more times and then stops. This process repeats itelf over and over.
Please put me out of my misery. Is my hard drive dead? Is this a job for data recovery? Or is this a video card problem?
Thanks for listening and any advice is more than appreciated
