At times it would run a while, but I noticed cpu temps were bad for
cpu A 84°C and cpu B 24°C. So I shut it down.

This is really bothering!



Yes troubling, to say the least ... other Diagnostic Dump found recently in the G5s log:

Can anyone see something that indicates a problem, besides the high temperatures?


One link suggested that the cpu might be misaligned, which would be
consistent with a hard knock?

How about you disassemble it and look for youself?

I wanted to ... but the Seller and I agreed it would be better to have a Service Tech do it after running Diagnostics.


This is from the 2.0 and 2.3 GHz Late-2005 models:

You may be able to find some nice guides of how to disassemble the Quads
cooling unit some place else. But maybe it isn’t that much different?

Once opened up, you can easily check for damages and possibly reseat things
that have moved.

Oh, I’d first check what can be done with the insured shipping…

That's why a Service Tech is running the tests.

I'm a bit de-nerved about it all.

Its at a local computer tech shop ... wish us luck.

Oh opinions about shops that are not "certified by Apple", but friends say they know Macs too, welcomed.
