Hi, Y'All, This morning when I went into my computer/library, I
detected a
strong electrical smell. The computer system had been shut down
Thursday
night and was still off this morning.
If the Mac was shut down it's VERY unlikely it's the Mac.
About 3:30 p.m. I used a flashlight to reconnect only my G-5 computer
system, punched the start button on the front, and got ABSOLUTELY
NOTHING.
Now I'm really concerned, scared, almost terrified. I've had this
G-5 only
since Dec '09. No trouble except the usual noisy fan(s).
Where is that Mac plugged in? I suspect that outlet is what fried.
Personally, I'd wait for the electrician, or someone like him.
