Or, something on the ATA bus(es) went wrong: chip (unlikely), connectors,
cables (more likely)...?
Since everything looks working in your Mac, save for any drive.

Did you try booting from external devices (USB, Firewire)?
Did you try booting in verbose mode?

G5 wont boot

2011-06-09 Thread John Carmonne

I have a Dual PPC 2.7 G5 that wont boot any drive but it does run ASD the OF, 
but when I try to boot ASD OS test or any drive with option key no cigar just 
the Apple and no gear.
ASD passes the calibration and OF but I can't get it to boot any drive DVD, 
internal or external even though they show after the chime with option key. 
Geez what am I doing wrong??
I have a new late model Panasonic heat sink and no leaks. I've been at this for 
two days moved RAM cleaned swapped processors so I think maybe the boot ROM 
chip on the MOBO??
