I bought a 2.0 Ghz g5 along with a bunch of other parts from someone
who was closing down his repair shop. He told me that the only thing
that was wrong with it was a broken power supply (since he has helped
me with other stuff I am sure it was in that state when he gave it to
me). However, I just
When my G5's power supply blew (only one week usage total), Apple
replaced it for free (it was part of an extended warranty program that
ended in Jan.2010), Apple also replaced the motherboard and both CPUs
as part of the power supply replacement. When I asked about it, they
said it was oft

Are you sure the FW is working on the G5? I've heard of several G5's

it's both the 800 & 400 together. I'd try plugging the d
Thanks Isaac and James. I have an old version of Disk Warrior that
worked with early versions of OSX, that I suspect may do more harm
than good if I tried it, so I'd better not. I'll just buy a fresh new
copy for 10.5.

Tom,
Before dropping the money on a new enclosure, I'd take a serious look at a
universal drive adapter. They're not pretty and they're not even close to
permanent, but I was able to pick one up from
OK Isaac. I'll probably try that too somewhere down the line. First I
thought I'd give DiskWarrior a go. I dug around in my disks and found
the DiskWarrior 3.0.2 disk, which has "for OSX" written on it in pen.
But I'll bet the last time I used it was for OSX 10.2 or something, a
long time ago. Dare

It strikes me that one of these "FireWire buses" might be a PCI-X card
I installed that provides some extra USB and two FW ports.
