[QUOTE="B&O, post: 1036260, member: 31354"] First of all, sorry for the lack of info. This is from a friend. He has a powermac G5 and he believes it is a 1.6 dual core. He bought it secondhand and all was great but he moved it to his studio and then it stopped working. When he boots it up he hears the chime but doesn't get a video signal (he has checked the cables). Then there is (what he calls) a metallic grinding noise and then the fans ramp up. I am assuming that this could be either a loose connection, bad ram (but it won't chime right?) or a half dead HD. Any ideas? I am assuming that it is chime that the hardware is good but has a minor fault somewhere. Thanks Mike [/QUOTE]
Verification
How many occurrences of a n-u-m-b-e-r between "d" and "f" in this example...(sdgs6ngklu3gd#f9%)?
