PowerMac G5 freezes, fan is blowing hard
My PowerMac G5 is about 3 years old, running OS Tiger 10.4.11 and has been working fine. A couple of weeks ago, it started freezing up overnight with the fan going into overdrive and blowing hard. I can only shut it off by pulling the plug. At restart it makes 2 clicking noises, and then it boots fine--and works fine until the next freeze.
It started happening more often which prompted me to run the disk utility. It came up with a message that "Volume header needs minor repair." I repaired it using the OSX CD.
Question: does anyone else have the same problem and did the utility fix the problem for good? Or should I be thinking about a new hard drive? Thanks in advance for your help!!!
