Error 4PRC in Apple Hardware Test

Hello,
I have a 24" iMac (2.16GHz Core Duo, 1.5GB RAM) from late 2006. A few days ago, the display went black although the power stayed on. I turned it off, and it hasn't been able to boot since then. Whether I try to boot normally, in safe mode, or from the install DVD, the same thing happens: (1) happy startup sound with gray Apple logo; (2) that screen darkens and *sort of* a kernel panic message appears in the center. I say "sort of" because the kernel panic message's rectangle is in the right place and some of its text is readable, but partway down the rectangle it looks as though the drawing is offset somehow. Anyway, that's how this problem manifests itself: a kernel panic very early in the boot process.
Miraculously, the Apple Hardware Test starts up successfully from the install DVD. Both the normal test and the extended test give the same result: the RAM passes its tests, but when it reaches the CPU, the following error message appears, and the tests stop:
4PRC/1/40000003: Processor
That looks bad. I searched the web and various forums (including this one) and found very little information. An Apple document marked "Error Codes, Apple Hardware Test version 3A117" suggests that the appropriate action is to replace the processor.
I suspect that if I take the iMac to my local Mac repair specialists, they will offer to expensively replace the motherboard. I'm an old UNIX nerd and have tinkered with lots of machines other than Macs; can I simply replace my iMac's CPU myself?
Or is CPU replacement in fact unnecessary, when some other fix might work? Does anyone have specific advice about this error message?

In case it's helpful, here's a textual description of the panic from single user mode startup (which fails just as badly):

What are the meanings of Apple Hardware Test error codes 4m0t/4/40000003:hdd-1300 and 4m0t/4/40000003:hdd-1308?

what are the meanings of Apple Hardware Test error codes 4m0t/4/40000003:hdd-1300 and 4m0t/4/40000003:hdd-1308?

Thanks - Even though I'm years out of warranty I got chat help from Apple (I said they should help me since the codes aren't published.) We covered three different questions, and although I didn't get a specific decoding of the error code, I got confirmation of what other comments here imply - it might have helped that I indicated I'd already been here - and useful links to how to do back ups, including to CD(s). (I don't have a lot of data on this computer yet)
Now I need to figure out how to decide how hot-to-the-touch is "too hot" for the metal frame at the top of the iMac to decide whether I'm getting adequate fan performance or insufficient. While chatting I initially reported it was cool at the bottom and warm at the top. Apple hadn't asked, but their response prompted me to feel it again, and I'd say the top was hot, not warm - I updated but Apple didn't comment further except to conclude after addressing the other questions that I should take it in for further assessment - don't really want to bother with that.

Error Code After Running Apple Hardware Test

I ran apple hardware test (I'm having problems where my computer freezes for like 10 seconds with the mouse being movable... but it happens very frequently. like once a minute. it's SOOO ANNOYING)
this is the error i got after running apple hardware test:
(it came out as a Mass Storage error... which is Hard Disk i guess)
**ERROR*CODE***ERROR*CODE**
2STF/8/3: S-ATA Bus 0-Master
**ERROR*CODE***ERROR*CODE**
Does anyone know what I can do to fix it. Apple Hardware Test only allows me to find the error and then restart or shut down... which is useless cause what is the error code supposed to mean. I've only got Apple 1 yr repair support left... so I cant call up Apple or anything. Does anyone know anything about this and what I could do to fix it!?
I know about this: http://www.apple.com/support/imac/repairextensionprogram/
I might go to the apple store, but I dont wanna make a trip out there for nothing.
Does anyone know what I can do or should I just take it to the apple store.

Actually, i just spent like 1 hr working with disk utility using the os x install disk and i think it finally worked. im so happy for myself! yay... i wouldnt accept no for an answer. Disk utility kept saying "oh first aid failed because it didnt exit right" or something... total garbage response... i kept pressing verify disk and then repair disk and then i did the verify permissions and repair permissions too... didnt really know what i was doing with the permissions... but it finally worked so thats all that mattered! yay... its back to normal!!

Error Codes after Apple Hardware Test...

After someone here told me I've been experiencing kernel panics, I did some digging on the x lab site and re-ran the Apple hardware test in loop mode. after 17 runs, it returned the error:
4MOT/2/40000005:Right Side
I can't seem to find a list of error codes anywhere. My MBP has two 1GB RAM chips, both were pre-installed when I got the machine from Apple. I haven't tried switching them to see if the same error is returned on testing or with ONLY one or the other installed to see if this is truly a RAM issue. I thought I'd post to the forum for ideas first...

I'm afraid I have no idea. If you have AppleCare, I would ask them about the error code. You do have a different error code (/2/ not /1/ and different number after the second slash) than the link, so perhaps it is not a fan motor that is your problem, though I'm hard-pressed to think of what other motors the MBP has (I don't think the hard drive is on the right side, for one.) Alternatively I can imagine, since you said it took you 17 tests to get the result, that this is an intermitent problem--for all I know, just a slightly loose/poorly soldered wire--and so istat hasn't detected the problem yet.
I think AppleCare or a Mac Genius is your best bet, if you have the one or can get to the other. In particular, unfortunately, Apple does not seem to publish the hardware error codes; it only makes them available to techs.
Good luck!

What do Apple Hardware Test Error Codes indicate?

I recently installed new 1GB memory modules in both slots. When running the Apple Hardware Test, I got the following error code:
post/0/2048 S0DIMM0/J20STANDARD
Does anybody knows what this means? Up in the Test Results Box, it said Memory passed.
Do I have a problem or not?

I've had little luck finding a compilation of those AHT codes and their meaning. In your case, "post" is probably "power-on self test," the routine that all Macs run at startup to check for problems.
2048 is the total RAM qty in MB.
J20STANDARD is the logical name of one of the RAM slots.
Run System Profiler and see what it shows for when you select "Memory" from the left-hand pane. On my 1Ghz 17" PowerBook, Profiler shows one slot as J20STANDARD and the other as J23REVERSED and it runs fine. Profiler will tell you if the modules are matched for speed and CAS latency.

Is this major?! Hardware test error code 4M0T/4/40000002:HDD-0

I ran a thorough hardware test on my 2010 iMac11,3 yesterday and came up with this error code. I then used disk utility to try to repair the disk and ran another thorough hardware test and the same code appeared. Does anyone know what this error code means? and whether I should get it fixed ASAP?
I'm asking since this is my work computer and I really need to have it around and can't risk having repairs take a week or so to get this error fixed. If this is major I'll probably move all my work files onto my MBP n try to work on them there but that would be my last resort.
Any help would be much appreciated!! Thanks!

Watch the temp of the HD; I don't know what the max should be, but be careful not to damage it by letting it get too hot.

Hardware Test Error Message - Mass Storage Error code ata 1/6/8 HD: 2,0

I have an imac 15" flat Panel, 700 MHz . after getting the flashing question mark, running or trying to run all the standard tests, (pram, Software Restore, disk repair, reinstall, kernel repairs) I never see the hard drive or volume. I saw it was a maxtor HD with 0 bytes at one point.
I now ran the Apple Hardware Test think I lost the Hard Drive...this is the feed back:
Airport- Passed
Logic Board - Passed
Mass Storage - Error Detected
Memory - Has Not been Run yet
Modem - Device Found
Video RAM - Has not been run yet
Error Code ata 1/6/8 HD: 2,0
Could anyone help me diagnose the issue? I think I can replace the HArd Drive myself, if I knew this was the problem and what I need to buy to replace.
Thanks,

I have a different take to a brody having replaced my hard disk and opened my iMac G4 up several times. Many people find that Apple Authorized Service Providers tend to give extortionate quotes for such repairs. Feel free to get a quote yourself. I'll provide the same advice I've given to many many other Apple Discussions users who have successfully replaced their hard disk themselves.
The iMac uses a standard desktop PC hard drive. It is 3.5" wide and in the iMac G4 uses the IDE connection. The iMac 700MHz 15" has an ATA66 bus so can use ATA66, ATA100 or ATA133 drives but not ATA33 or SATA. You should buy a 7,200rpm drive with a cache of 8Mb or higher as this also increases the speed over the original 5,400rpm drive installed so you should get a performance increase.
Here is a list of suitable hard drives.
It's pretty fiddly to work inside an iMac G4 so you must be very cautious. Always take anti-static precautions. Here are three options for guiding you through the procedure:
MacWorld
xlr8yourmac
Service Manuals
I've also taken a fair few photos which you can find here.
I'd advise reading the reports on the xlr8yourmac's drive database so get other people's experiences first.
You must replace the Thermal Paste when you close the iMac up or it will overheat.
It's probably worth replacing the PRAM Battery whilst you're in there as these have a finite life (once they fail to re-charge you may start to run in to snags - it's only a $5 part).
The hard disk should be set to Master (link).
Some iMac G4 700MHz users have reported that they are unable to address hard drives larger that 128GB, there is an application called SpeedTools that can be used to overcome this addressing limitation.
You might also give consideration to installing a 512MB PC133 DIMM or an 18x DVD±RW Dual Layer burner whilst you do this update; both of which will have to be removed during the process.
You must be very careful around the video connector in the iMac; it really is very fragile. In fact there is no need to touch it at all in my experience.
It is possible that the ATA controller on the iMac's logic board has failed rather than the hard disk. Given the cost of the logic-board it would not be cost-effective for an iMac G4 700MHz.
Let us know how you get on.

After an apple hardware test on my iMac I got an error code ?

So I did an extended hardware test on my apple imac and after an hour of testing i got this error code: 4MOT1/140000003: HDD-1363. The next day I did another hardware test on my apple imac but this time iI did a quick hardware test and after about five minutes of testing this time I got the same result except this time the 4-digit code or number after the 'HDD-' changed to a different one, like... 1476. So what does this mean, I mean my computer is working perfectly fine without any problems (except for that one time when my brother punched my iMac's screen really hard a couple of times and a couple of hard punches on the hard drive however it was working fine but he did it again and it froze the time he did it again and i had to restart it but everything was STILL working fine after I restarted it !) but when I do the Hard ware test I get those errors so what does this mean ? Is it possible to fix ? Would apple fix it for free as my warranty has expired ?
All help appreciated
Thanks

don't know why, but try using Disk Utility to repair the drive:
1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc that came with your computer, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.
3. Click the First Aid tab.
4. Click the disclosure triangle to the left of the hard drive icon to display the names of your hard disk volumes and partitions.
5. Select your Mac OS X volume.
6. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk.

I own an IMAC G5. It is running very slow. Did hardware test and it came up with error code 2STF/8/3:S-ATABUSO-Master. What do I need to do next? Thanks in Advance. Stuart

I own an Imac G5. It is running very slow. Did hardware test and got an error code 2STF/8/3:S-ATABUSO-Master. What is my next step?
Also how do i run disk first aid on the computer off of the install disks? Which disk do i do it from. Thanks in advance. Stuart

Sounds like your hard drive it about to die.
I would backup ASAP.
To run First Aid on your disk, you need to boot from the install DVD for your Mac.
After selecting the language, open Disk Utiltity and repair the disk.
If it reports errors that DU is unable to repair, report them here and we will provide additional help.

PB 17" Hardware Test Result-Error Code 2STF/1/4

I have a 17" Powerbook G4 running OS X (10.4.7). Today I was online on a cable modem. I walked away from the computer and then heard a high pitched sound. I had the sound turned all the way off so it wasn't coming from anything normal. It seemed as though the sound was coming from my attached external speakers but apparently that wasn't the source of the sound. It appeared to be still online but then everything froze up. Then the computer turned itself off when I tried to quit the Firefox application.
I had trouble getting my Powerbook restarted and when it did restart it showed the blinking question mark. I ran the Hardware Test and came up with an error code. It showed an error detected in the mass storage. The code was 2STF/1/4. Apparently there is nothing I can do to fix this on my own? This being Saturday I guess I have no computer for the weekend and maybe for a while. Does anyone have an idea how serious this error code is?

PowerBook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.7)

Hi--
Does anyone have an idea how
serious this error code is?
Based on the description of the sound you heard, and a Google search for the hardware error code, it sounds like your hard drive failed. My guess is that the high pitched sound you heard was either a bearing in the hard drive going (if they have such a thing), or the head scraping the surface of the drive (and thereby removing the magnetic media that holds the data).
One other thing that it might mean is that the hard drive controller chip, which is on the logic board, has failed. But that doesn't really explain the high pitched sound you heard (unless it was from the speakers, and was caused by an electrical failure on the logic board that leaked into the sound generating chip).
At this point, I think you need to have a technician look at the computer.
good luck,
charlie

Apple Hardware Test (MacPro) result codes

Hello, My MacPro has been doing the wierdest things like freezing up, although the mouse will move. Freezes while monitors are sleeping. Freezes when I move mouse towards dock. Freezes for no apparent reason ... all updates have been performed.
Bright idea tonight, I decided to run the Apple Hardware Test provided on my install disks ... I got an error code "4SNS/1/40000001:VMBS". No idea what it is or means and have searched high and low on the internet for result codes.
Does anyone know what this means?
I have been supicious of my ATi Radeon X1900 XT for some time as there have been artifacts and odd colour shifts and graphic anomalies.
Thanks for your help, all is appreciated.

apple hasn't released a key to the public as to what the hardware codes mean. you really need to take it in for diagnosis.

Is it possible for Apple Hardware test to make mistakes ?

I have done an apple hard ware test a couple of months ago and got an error code. I managed to fix it with some help. Now I did it again after a couple of months and it showed me the same error code again but I have no problem with my
iMac (sluggish, crahshes etc...). My iMac is C-O-M-P-L-E-L-Y fine in terms of performence. So is Apple hardware test wrong ? I heard that the error code is due to it being on for so long... But I need to approve it... Is it serious ?...
All help appreciated
Thanks

One common source of false positives is from connected peripherals. Did you disconnect everything except Keyboard and Mouse?

Ran Hardware test on 17" 10.5.6 Error Code 2STF/3/3:ATA-100ata-6-master came up @ mass storage run area.

Have a Powerbook G4 17" 1.57GHz BRV 4.8.4f1 Mem.1 GB HDr. ATA:3,ID:0, Ran HARDWARE Test 2.2 hit Mass Storage test area when Error Code 2STF/3/3:ATA-100ata-6-Master stopped test. Shut comp down by holding pwr button for 5 secs. Waited 20 minutes and restarted w/option button and ran test again hit Mass Storage and Error Code 2STF/8/ rest is same as previous error code. Something about Node pop up after running disk utility a few days ago. Comp is was running very slow. Only change besides updates was Macdefender. Do I need to take it to be repaired at an Apple place? Thank you.

First, you need to remove macdefender, which is a scam program. Apple note http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4650 provides these instructions:
Removal steps
Move or close the Scan Window.
Go to the Utilities folder in the Applications folder and launch Activity Monitor.
Choose All Processes from the pop up menu in the upper right corner of the window.
Under the Process Name column, look for the name of the app and click to select it; common app names include: MacDefender, MacSecurity or MacProtector.
Click the Quit Process button in the upper left corner of the window and select Quit.
Quit Activity Monitor application.
Open the Applications folder.
Locate the app ex. MacDefender, MacSecurity, MacProtector or other name.
Drag to Trash, and empty Trash.
Malware also installs a login item in your account in System Preferences. Removal of the login item is not necessary, but you can remove it by following the steps below.
Open System Preferences, select Accounts, then Login Items
Select the name of the app you removed in the steps above ex. MacDefender, MacSecurity, MacProtector
Click the minus button
Now, after you do that, reboot your system. Bring up disk utillity and verify the disk. Preferred would be to boot from OS X on DVD or a Firewire backup, run Disk Utility and Repair Disk, but verify disk when Disk Utility is loaded from the hard drive should work. Write down any messages, like bad node or whatever.
If you get a message that the program exits with a failure, then there is a disk error that Disk Utility won't be able to fix. That could mean buying Disk Warrior or TechTool Pro to fix the error. Disk Warrior tends to be the disk fix program of choice. Depending on the error, it's possible that Disk Utility won't be able to fix the problem, in which case the fix is usually a new hard drive. Note, a new hard drive will be cheaper than Disk Warrior (at $95 or so).
Smart Utility from http://www.volitans-software.com/smart_utility.php will give you good insight into the condition of your hard drive, as it reports on your SMART sensors.
