not hardly specific to teh G5 quads, but I think all these suffer
from the dread Capacitor Plague form the period they were
manufactured...
while it's a singular cause (really bad quality power suppky
capacitoers from a specific vendorfor severakl years) the SYMPTOMS,
as some/all/none of the caps start to get flakey can look like
ANYTHING else going confusingly, randomly wrong with the system.

I have been using a G5 Quad Core with later cooling system fix for

I went on and bought a G5 Quad Core 2.5GHz
By later cooling system fix, do you mean the last cooling system
that fixed the earlier leaking problems?
Is there any preventive maintenance you would recommend?
