Hi all,
Hoping someone out there might point me somewhere useful :-)
I have a 3 yr old 1.8 mhz g5 iMac (Just out of Applecare naturally.)
Over the last few weeks, the machine has been working fine except
that once every couple of days it makes a small pop and closes down....
For about a minute, pressing the power button just makes it come on
then off again.
Shortly thereafter, she powers up but (what sounds like) the fan
makes a lot of noise for about 30 seconds
CPU temperature is 75% - that sounds OK, yes?
Anyway, today the machine did it twice in the space of 15
minutes.....starting to get a little nervous here... ;-)
Strangely though, I thought it might have something to do with the
power supply, so was wiggling that while it was dead and the machine
turned itself on..
I know...confusing eh?
Can anyone offer any advice beyond 'back up everything and brace your
wallet'?
cheers
Stewart
