Kris, Adam
Thanks for your response.
On closer inspection it does seem to have 2 single cpus and I assume
the upper one is not working going by the fan speeds - 300rpm upper,
1000rpm lower.
When my other half lets me get at the machine I'll try the simple
fixes - pram reset and see what I can glean for any nvram optins.
I don't have AHT nor ASD.
Is AHT available to download & burn?

The only dual core G5 CPUs were used in the very last series of
Power Mac G5, offered in single processor 2 and 2.3GHz, as well as
the dual processor "quad 2.5GHz". The mid 2004 PowerMac G5s used
dual single core processors, offered as dual 1.8, dual 2.0, and
dual 2.5GHz (a single processor 1.8GHz model was offered starting
later that year). I've heard of dual processor PMG5s running on
only one processor before. Has the OP tried running AHT or ASD yet?

I'm not positive of this, but I'm about 95% sure your problem is
different than you think.
These G5 PowerMacs came in two distinct configurations that both
used the term "dual".
There were earlier versions with one dual-core CPU, and later
versions with two single-core CPUs, and BOTH these are referred to
by Apple a "dual". I believe your earlier 2004 PowerMac G5 has one
dual-core CPU rather than two single-core CPUs.
