Good morning,
Wonder if anyone can offer any advice. I have an iMAC G5 bought in 2005. Its the old white 20" screen one without Isight and with 2 memory slots. It has devloped a fault where it just powers itself off after about 30 minutes. In the past I upgraded the memory from 1 x 256 Dimm to 2 x 512, and I read that sometime this fault is caused by memory so switched back to the old memory but problems still exists. Problem exists while browsng internet, playing cds etc, doesnt seem to be one particular thing that causes the problem, gut feel is that it could be an overheating problem ?
Its running a really old version of the OS but I didnt want to upgrade while this problem exists as I think it will fail half way through.
Any ideas what I can do ? Tried looking at official apple support but they say that the machine is too old for them. Do I cut my losses and look to replace or do I try and get this problem sorted.
Im in the UK.
Alex.
