Re: G5 Wakes up Screaming

I believe this is called G5 thermal runaway when the fans go full blast. It's not related to sleep or network AFAIK. Some people have said Norton software is often responsible, so if you have anything from Norton, uninstall it. You can also try resetting the PMU:

Re: G5 Wakes up Screaming

I'm having a problem that sounds pretty similar. Occasionally while sleeping, my G5's fan(s) (I can't tell from outside which ones) start screaming away at full speed. When this happens, though, the system is also (apparently) still sleeping but won't wake up. Nothing goes into any of the log files

Agreed. I'm still loving the MDD G4, and for less than $200 you can find dual 1.25GHz, 2GB memory, and a Leopard OS. G4 or G5 will not run Snow Leopard, which requires an Intel chip. If I were to give a warning, it would be that you need a USB 2.0 card, all of about $10, and that's the only needed

You can use Quartz Extreme on PCI video cards. Even Rage 3D cards support Quartz Extreme. It's Core Image that you can't get in most PCI cards, but the nVidia FX5200 PCI that is normally found in the Xserve G5 does support both. The problem with the FX5200 is that it doesn't support 3d in classic,
