[QUOTE="theos911, post: 1026380, member: 149200"] I recently was performing standard cpu maintenance on my systems and was applying the thermal gel between the cpus and heat sinks. I did my *new* Powermac G4 QS (ithink) and closed up and did my other pcs as well. Later on the mac wouldnt boot, got the apple and about a rotation of spin on the gui boot THEN FREEZE. Later it quit completely, opened it up and cpu was smoking (OH GREAT) I am an adv lvl windows xp knowledgeable person, and same with most windows compatible hardware, but to a lesser extent. I really don't know standard apple hardware at all. I believe I have (*had*) the dual 1 ghz processor. I am wondering where to purchase a new cpu card. My model number is M8493, with 2 firewire ports(which is apparently important I've learned) I apologize for my mac inepitude. Any help would be very much appreciated. Thanks, Ted [/QUOTE]
Verification
How many occurrences of a n-u-m-b-e-r between "d" and "f" in this example...(sdgs6ngklu3gd#f9%)?
