Yesterday we had a thunder storm and when leaving my office I not
only turned off my power strip that our (G5 DP2.0ghz, 4.5gb ram)
computer was plugged into, but I also unplugged the power cord from
the strip/surge protector. I usually just turn off the surge
protector when we have a storm, but after my father's G4 lost it's
power supply after a bad storm a couple weeks ago, I decided to
unplug the cord as well. This morning it chimed but soon stopped
everything at the gray apple screen. I held in the power button to
shut it down and after trying again it chimed and then the light
above the power button now just blinks 3 times every 5 seconds or
so. Then the chime went away and it just blinks 3 times as
mentioned. I wanted to do a pram reset however it does not chime. I
tried replacing the pram battery but it still does this blinking
thing. I assume that is an indicator of the problem and am hopeful
someone here can help me get back running again.
Thanks in advance for your help!<
