I've tested my Ram from both dead computers and it's OK according to Tech Tool Deluxe.
I moved the 2 gigs of ram from my dead dualie into this pokey 400mhz 100mhz bus G4. I tested the ram from the dead DA in this computer. It's all OK. I can't say what the extent of the damage to the DA is beyond the dead power supply. I have no idea why the dualie won't boot. I've ordered a bunch of parts and if it works I should be able to recover the data from the dead HD for less than $90. What would cause this dual processor not to boot? The ram is OK, the two HDs are running in this computer as I type. What gives? Weighing costs a used G5 looks like an option. The only bad things I've heard about them are the ones with liquid cooled processors leak and corrode. Which models are liquid cooled? The dual core ones? I want to know what to stay away from.
