Trying to save a G5 as affordably as I can.
I have had confusion telling just WHAT it is, aside from a 2.0 gHz
machine with 8 memory slots.
I have borrowed a 1.8gHz model as a swap bed, but a,m not sure of the
power supplies are equivalent.
Only thing that has shown true is that moving both the HD's from mine
to the other fires up perfectly as my machine was.
Mine was only staring up in SAFE mode and no seeing audio devices.
Then after a couple hours' power failure and power return (the power
light is ON as soon as you put the power cord in. Pushing the START
button does nothing. Power light just glows.
If it's reasonably fixable, it's completely sufficient form my
production work. If not, a reasonable replacement needs
recommendation, whether that's another G5 or something like a Mini or
other used but similarly capable machine.
