[QUOTE="pm-r, post: 1653068, member: 175845"] I wouldn't be surprised if that PowerMac G5 isn't suffering from their classic bad/failed capacitor problem and not worth fixing these days IMHO. And the iMac G5s were even worse. But you could try booting using Safe Boot Mode and see if things are a bit better. ;) [/QUOTE]
