The key is that it's a G5. It's a power supply issue most likely; the G5 iMacs were the Mac model most affected by the great Capacitor Plague <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capacitor_plague>. The service you're referring to almost certainly is a cap replacement service. There are services and kits available to do this for both the logic board and the power supply. -- Bruce Johnson University of Arizona College of Pharmacy Information Technology Group Institutions do not have opinions, merely customs -- You received this message because you are a member of the iMac Group, a group for those using Apple iMacs and eMacs.
