[QUOTE="kevinc5680, post: 915456, member: 17492"] I bought a used PowerMac G5 about a month and a half ago and in the last week, the system has started turning itself off. I tried searching for a solution on the forum and found nothing that was similar to my problem. I searched the web and found a few random issues. I tried reseting the PRAM and it seems to help for a few hours, then it turns off. If I turn the system back on without a reset, it will last about 10 minutes or so. Is there a part I have to replace or is this a major issue that is not fixable? I have the dual 2.0Ghz G5 which I believe is the late 2004 model. [/QUOTE]
