Re: No Startup, just an endlessly repeating chime
Do you still have it plugged in UPC? May try plugging in wall. Possible UPC problem... :) On Oct 14, 2011, at 2:22 PM, Brielle Bruns wrote: On 10/14/11 8:27 AM, Dan wrote: At 6:48 AM -0700 10/14/2011, dc wrote: I have a bad feeling about this... After a brief power outage yesterday I now cannot start up my Mac desktop. I get a nice chime but, a few seconds later, it chimes again and just keeps repeating the startup chime. Holding keys- option, shift-command-option-delete, command-option-o-f, etc.- has no effect, it just keeps repeating the startup chime. I've had a number of different Mac desktops over the years and I've never run across this phenomenon. Can anyone help me figure out what the problem might be? The computer was connected to a UPC battery backup surge protector at the time and I was using it; as soon as I saw the UPC alert I went to the Apple menu and shut the machine down normally. The computer is an Intel-based MacPro (1,1) but I am wondering if anyone ever had a similar problem, say with a G5 running Leopard? wow. Never had one loop like that. bleh. Power hits. Reset the pram and nvram. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1379 Try booting with the shift key held down. If you hold down the option key, does the boot selector come up? Disconnect all external peripherals except keyboard, mouse, and display. Perhaps try disconnecting the internal boot volume/drive, and try booting on an external? Could also be the power supply failing, and unable to provide enough juice to spin up the internal drives, the video card, etc. -- Brielle Bruns The Summit Open Source Development Group http://www.sosdg.org/ http://www.ahbl.org -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.

Re: Can I CCC a 10.4 from a G4 DA to a G5?
I transfered Tiger from my Quicksilver to my G5 with no problems. Been running it for about 8 months now... On Nov 4, 2011, at 10:34 AM, Len Gerstel wrote: Everything I have read is that 10.X installs are monolithic. ie: they include everything needed for any machine that will run the OS. I know G5s can run 10.5, but we still have classic apps that we run and I have not been able to get SheepShaver working. Remote desktopping into a G4 will be a later project. It is a Dual 2.0 G5. I believe it is the 2004 dual 2.0 with pci-x slots. (at the price and speed bump from a DA dual 533 and a Sawtooth 400, I am not being picky on which dual 2.0). My plan is to install the HD for the G5 into my DA (with a SATA card) and just clone my DA HD onto it. Yes, I know a fresh install is best, but I don't have the time or organization to do that here. Any flaws? Thanks, Len -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
