Q: Instant Shutdowns on iMac G5 PPC 20" HELP!!!!!!
i have recently experienced what i think is a PSU problem. BUT i want to see if there is anyone else with my problems. I have been using my mac for about 7 months now and just today i experienced 3 instant shutdowns. no warning, no sound. just immediately off. i tried to turn it back on but no luck. so i unplugged the cord from the wall (making sure its seated correctly) and then turned it on. It works! great!! BUT then while burning a CD again it turns off! its not a power surge becuase nothing in my office is affected. its not the cord because its seated correctly, and its not a first gen imac that has been recalled for the PSU. i cant figure out what it is. if there is anyone that may have some info or is experiencing these problems please respond. Thanks in advance!!!
iMac G5 (iSight) 20" 2.1Ghz PPC, Mac OS X (10.4.6)
