[QUOTE="bewarned, post: 1111686, member: 172446"] Hi, My 20" iMac G5 is randomly turning off, it can be pretty much straight after you turn it on, or after it has booted up for a while. It can however stay on for hours overnight and then just turn off again in the morning. I have verified the disk using disk utility, that came back fine, I also tried a new HDD but still crashed. Capacitors are all okay. So could it be a faulty PSU? Is there a way of checking the memory? Would a fault in that make it crash? Wanted to check as the PSU's are nearly £100 so didn't want to get it wrong. Thanks, Ian. [/QUOTE]
