[QUOTE="HarryHydro, post: 1647083, member: 117592"] Hi Folks: This might sound funny but I booted fine into a retail 10.5 OSX install DVD! The OEM G5 DVD must not be compatible.. I also have a 2003 version dual G5 which came with the grey DVD, but I guess they are so custom to a specific machine.. The dual has a video card that will not even plug in this. How rare this must be.. I wonder if I could even get an OEM DVDD for this.. A1117 g5 quad 2.5GHz. Yea. Looks like a radiator behind the fans. Computer had mismatched RAM in it too, I know is a no-no.. I can hardly believe it is working! Case is bent up from shipping.. Thanks Folks! Hydro [/QUOTE]
