[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1270867, member: 46727"] You were not going to upgrade to Snow Leopard or Lion anyway because a G5 is a PPC machine and PPC machines can not run SL or Lion. I'm not all that familiar with the G5 but it does sound like some sort of hardware error. Many of our members here have a G5 or had one and should be able to provide you with an answer. So hang on. And welcome to the Mac Forums. Edit: Are you sure you have a G5 and not an early Intel iMac? The last G5 machines were made in late 2005. [/QUOTE]
