Hi Dave
My knowledge of these things is limited but the first thing I would do is open

all the chips change to cog wheels and the power supply to steam

Well that's telling. That immediately makes me think of the CMOS
battery that keeps the clock going on the motherboard when

Sounds like the on-board battery has died. It should be user
replaceable. The manual for the chassis or motherboard will tell you
the type and location. It may be on the moth

Try replacing your hard drive cables.

Thanks all for the replies.
I finally got it going about 2 hours later.
Not sure if this was the fix, but i finally cut all power to it, left
it like that for 10 minutes, then plugged it all back in.
Then it was fine.
Also i had removed the internet cable for use of the mac. Maybe that

Looks like a hard drive failure happening in slow motion. However
