Powermac g5 quad core reboot issue, led etc.

Hey guys. Gals. Whomever. Have a g5 quad core that has been bullet proof solid until recently. Annoying little red led popped up. (under the 1st ram slot, which co-incidentally is empty.) Then a second red one (Under 4th ram slot, 1" or so in from the edge of the board) went on..
When both comes on, nothing happens..
What has been happening is this.. one red led is on, and the computer spontaneously sleeps. I played around a bit with istat pro, and think it may have been because the fans were running full blast, and the temp was still rising. (no coolant leaks, etc). I set the performance to "reduced" and all seems well.. Apple guys suggested re-installing osx with an archived installation to save all my other stuff, and I figured "hey, why not.."
Then it got weird. Computer will NOT restart. If I restart the computer from apparently any state, it simply makes the tone, both led's come on, and it goes to a grey screen with a mac apple on it and does nothing else. Eventually the fans kick on full blast, and I have to hold the power button to turn off. And that is after inserting the disc, running the little prompts, and having the computer restart it self.
I have seen
-file folder w. question mark prior to apple
-flickering of the screen when boots up. (white, then black, then desktop etc)
I have...
-checked vid cable for tightness
-removed all firewire devices (only had one a high speed camera card reader)
-unplugged everything and hit the pvram reset button
-removed the battery on the motherboard
-shut the machine down, stuck the osx disc in, and restarted.
all to no real avail. The machine boots and works fine from cold. Will NOT restart.
If the osx disc is in, it goes to grey screen with apple on it, and after like 20 secs the fans go on full blast, and the dvd winds up to a zillion rpms. Nothing more..
I have a apple wireless aluminum keyboard, and have tried to boot with the cmd option p r ,or o f settings and nothing happens. not sure if the machine recognizes this keyboard early enough in it's boot to be of any use.
Currently
-no led's on.
-reduced performance setting
-can't restart computer
-can't install/reinstall osx
Thoughts????

bought machine new, but come old os in 2005. upgraded to this one and lost original disc in a move. D'oh.
No thermal runway errors..
in fact today no mention of sleep at all.. These may be of interest..

2/18/09 9:19:36 AM com.apple.loginwindow[35] System shutdown time has arrived
That seems to correspond with me manually shutting it down..
I fired it up with the disc in the drive and it went further than before... actually went to grey screen w apple and rotating disc thing. Then the lights came on. I booted it with the plexi shield off.. The plexi light went on (yellow) and when it was all said and done (Hung up) it had more lights on than before..
One light above 1st ram slot
one below ram slot (over temp)
checksum light (as you wrote)
Yellow shield is off light
red light under that one..
I can read the descriptions on most of htem, the red under the yellow got away from me.
I will have to take it in to get fixed.. BUT theproblem is this.. there is no one near me.
I called apple yesterday and they said "XX" ct, which is 2 hrs and a boat ride away...
There are some regular computer techs in town but they have been less than impressive..
Thoughts?

  • Quad Core Reboots when it Sleeps

    Hi,
    Just got my new Quad core iMac at the weekend, but having one particular issue which is annoying.
    If I put the i7 into sleep mode, and then try to wake it several hours later, it appears to have shut down. ie: If I hit the enter key to wake it (as I previously did), it reboots itself.
    If I try the same thing after only a few minutes it works fine.
    Energy saver is set with all options ticked, and a 3 hour "Computer Sleep" time, and 1 hour "Display Sleep" time.
    Any idea's guys?
    Thanks

    OK so no answers, well I'll put this up here anyway just in case it may help someone in future.
    After a quick call the AppleCare, I shut down the computer, and started it up, holding down the Option/Apple/P/R keys all at the same time.
    Wait until you hear two "Bong"'s, then release the keys.
    Once the machine starts, the power management system will have reset itself.
    Seems to be working fine now!
    Have a good week guys.

  • Powermac G5 Quad Core

    I am planning to get a quad core powermac g5 with 2.5ghz and 8gb of ram. Will Final Cut Pro 7 work on this machine?

    Shane's words are discouraging, but almost entirely true...
    It IS possible to encode and work with ProRes422 (I'm possitive, I still have three 2.5GHz G5 dualies doing it) but virtually any Mac Pro will get you a lot further downstream. G5 parts (especially Quad) are still expensive and will probably remain so.
    If that's not bad enough, Adobe has long since ceased all Flash support for PPC Macs, so it's a lousy web surfing system as well.
    If money is an issue (when isn't it?) then look into used 2008 or later Mac Pros. There are some good values there.

  • Intel Duo Core vs. Quad Core performance issues

    I'm comparing performance of my multi-threaded server software on two machines and three OSes and finding some puzzling results.
    Computer #1
    Intel® Core 2 Duo (T7500)
    2GB RAM
    4M Cache, 2.20 GHz, 800 MHz FSB
    Mac OS X 10.6
    Java 1.6u17 (Java HotSpot 64-Bit Server VM)
    Computer #2
    Intel® Core 2 Quad (Q8300)
    8GB RAM
    4M Cache, 2.50 GHz, 1333 MHz FSB
    Ubuntu 9.10 or Windows 7
    Java 1.6u17 (Java HotSpot 64-Bit Server VM)
    Results:
    Surprisingly, my Java program runs significantly faster on the Mac (Computer #1) than on the PC (Computer #2) running either Linux or Windows. The latter runs at 60%-75% of the speed as the Mac.
    I'm not understanding this as the Mac is 3 years old and has a slower clock speed than the PC which I literally just purchased.
    Experiments:
    -tried testing with both Java 1.6u19 and a 1.7 beta on Ubuntu, saw improvements of up to ~10% on the PC
    -disabled 2 cores in Windows 7 so that's it's duo vs. duo instead of duo vs. quad; no difference
    -changed the Ubuntu processor setting to "Performance" instead of a power saving/efficiency mode, no difference
    -tried -Xconcurrentio on the PC, no difference
    I reckon I'll have to go into profiling the code to shed some more light on this, but thought I'd ask if anyone has seen this sort of thing. I'm not comparing apples and oranges, am I?
    (Here's a screenshot of the Intel website comparison on the processors: [Compare Intel Products|http://i.imgur.com/FEuGu.png] )
    I notice the Mac processor has a bus/core ratio of 11 while the PC has 7.5.
    7.5/11 = 68%, coincidence?!

    Harm is correct, look at the Premiere Pro CS4 Benchmark (PPBM4) results and see the result for those two processors.  While you do get a small incremental inprovement it probably is not with the cost.

  • I just bought MacPro 15", i7, Quad-Core, upgraded to 8GB RAM. Its responding to slow to poen applications e.g. word, ppt, chrome etc. reboot is too slow. Dont think its working so fast. Dosenot seems to be worth to money paid. What to do?

    Is is possible to install Win 2007 in MacPro (retina display) with USB (2.0 or 3.0) as new Mac retina display lacks DVD.

    They have been calling their notebook a MacPro for a year. Or is it this?

  • PowerMac G5 Quad - 2 issues that require your assistance ...

    Hi Everyone ... I used to hang-out here a few years back under the handle KentZ, but I can't get back into my account for the life of me ... guess I have to start fresh.
    I've been experiencing a few problems as of late with my PowerMac G5 Quad and I'm hoping someone may have some insight. I've tried the obvious "solutions", but please mention them, just in case I missed something - no such thing as condescension on this thread!
    1] Fans - I'm not one to complain about fan noise on this machine, though I do have one weird issue. Upon start-up, the fans sound strained (can happen randomly) as though I'm running a small batch process or something. If I then go into sys prefs/energy saver/options and cycle the processor performance from highest to reduced and then back to highest, the fans drop back to idle speed. Works every time, but why is this happening?
    Here are the stats:
    All CPU fans are around 1455-1500 rpm and the radiator pump is at 3600 rpm. Drive bay spins at 1000 rpm, expansion slots at 1560 rpm, and MLB fan spins at 1100 rpm.
    AFTER I toggle the energy saver/options:
    All CPU fans are around 970-1000 rpm and the radiator pump is at 1250 rpm. Drive bay spins at 1000 rpm, expansion slots at 1560 rpm, and MLB fan spins at 1100 rpm.
    Something to do with the CPUs ...?
    2] The more serious issue: system hangs. Generally, when I'm doing something that's graphically intensive: expose-ing a lot, happens all-the-time in Aperture, happened tonight twice while watching an imbedded video online. Usually, the cursor still moves around and sound may continue, but the system is completely frozen and I have to do a hard reboot. Sometimes it happens when I'm nowhere near the machine. Any idea what this may be? I ran a RAM test a while back and all appeared OK.
    Thank you everyone for reading and/or commenting.

    Hello KenZ, and a warm re-welcome to the forums!
    I can't get back into my account for the life of me ...
    I've seen a few of these and asked, highers ups have mentioned "User Error", but I don't buy it myself.
    One way to test is to Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, Test for action in Safe Mode...
    Reboot, test again.
    While it can still can be HW such as Video Card, Airport, etc., If it only does it in Regular Boot, then it is some 3rd party add-on, Check System Preferences>Accounts>Login Items window to see if it or something relevant is listed.
    Check System Preferences' Other row.
    Also look in these if they exist, some are invisible...
    /private/var/run/StartupItems
    /Library/StartupItems
    /System/Library/StartupItems
    I ran a RAM test a while back and all appeared OK.
    Unfortunately, the only time you can trust a RAM test if it reports an error, not if it doesn't, seems OSX "Tests" the RAM more than any test.

  • Seconds() function issue on Quad Core CPU

    Hello,
    I am noticing some timing issues using Seconds() function on a Quad Core computer. The optional boolean in Seconds() is True (by default). 
    With Core 2 Duo CPUs, the seconds() function is reporting elapsed time (since TestStand startup) correctly. However, I noticed on a Quad Core CPU that the seconds(True) function reports ~0.5s every 1 second. In other words, seconds() elapsed is incorrectly reported. Has anyone observed such issue?
    When the boolean parameter is set to False [i.e. Seconds(False)], there is no problem observed on Quad Core CPU.

    Howdy Troy,
    I don't have a quad core to duplicate your issue, but it sounds plausible. Since this is an older version of TestStand that was developed before multicores went mainstream, this very well may be expected behavior.
    You might instead call directly into the Windows API using kernel32.dll--particularly one of these functions:
    GetSystemTime
    GetSystemTimes (for multicore)
    GetTickCount
    External Link: MSDN: Time Functions (Windows)
    Judging from the nature of your question, I think GetTickCount would suit you best.
    I hope this helps!
    Warm regards,
    pBerg

  • Quad-Core/Dual-Core Front firewire issue with VX2100 camcorder

    Hi,
    My VX2100 camcorder will not work (isn't recognized) by the front firewire port on my quad-core G5. The camcorder works on the back port, and I have tried this at the apple store on other machines, all with the same result. Has anyone else had this issue or can offer some advice? Other firewire devices and camcorder have worked fine (I have a canon one that works with the front).

    Well, I went back into Best Buy to test on 3 other laptops (2 Asus, and their floor model for this Sony). It seems to be doing the same problem so at least I was able to rule out broken hardware issue on my particular laptop.
    Here's what I did to test:
    Since I couldn't really install Adobe Premiere on their machines, I used the DVIO software (http://www.carr-engineering.com/dvio.htm) and a 5 min clip I captured.  I transferred onto their machines, hooked up my Sony D8, and attempted to play the video.  It would play for 15 seconds and then stop and jitter with a loud noise (like it does on my laptop).  I even tried changing each machine's firewire driver to the legacy one and same results.  I pulled a brand new 4 pin to 4 pin firewire cable off their shelf and still the same problem.
    I think I've nailed it down to Win7x64 bit Home Edition not playing nice with Firewire driver.  Very annoying.  I can't find any concrete evidence of this from other users on any of the forums that have my particular problem, but from my own testing, it's all I can conclude.
    I have 2 other things I can try:
    1.  Opening the laptop and looking at the firewire to maybe find appropriate driver (ugh, I don't want to have to open this thing up).
    2.  Upgrading to Win7x64bit Pro and possibly testing with XP on the new MS Virtual PC (http://www.microsoft.com/windows/virtual-pc/).  I can't do it with my Home edition apparantly.
    Who needs to view video on an external TV anyways....sheeesh...(scarcasm).

  • RealVNC with Quad Core Mac Mini "Refresh Issues"

    Upgraded my Mac Mini server from a dual core to Quad Core machine.  Headless machine, hence used RealVNC to administrator it.  So when I utilised RealVNC, connecting via an ipad and the quad core machine had "Refresh Issues"!!  Went back to the Dual Core machine and you can view everything in real-time!  Can't explain it and the RealVNC people can't understand it either, yet!!!???

    It has a wired ethernet connection, the wireless is on but more for "location" services.  And no USB 2.0 or 3.0 devices attached, in fact it's headless, and only the power and ethernet connection attached.  But interesting to learn of the wireless issues on the new mini's.  Thanks!

  • Late 2.5 Quad Core Processor unit removal issue

    I have a late G5 2.5 GHz Quad Core PPC and after following all the service notes for pulling the processor assembly out of the case, it is still stuck.  6 screws removed, 8 captive head screws loosened and it doesn't want to lift up...any ideas out there?  Are the connectors hard to disengage?  I need to get this apart and put in some new heatsink compound before I can use it anymore. It is a single pump model.  Thanks so much for the help!  Jim

  • IMac Quad-Core i7 Temperature Spec Question

    Is there a published set of mean temperature and energy consumption tables for the quad-core iMac i7? I went through the process of transferring and adding roughly 30 GB of iTunes content and the iStat temperature and fan rpm readings spiked. What really caught my attention was when the side and top housing of the unit became hot enough that it was unacceptable to touch. I am now a bit concerned about putting my new machine in a computer armoire and want to make sure that my new machine is running within spec.
    Please note that this is my fourth Mac in six years and I have never encountered this type of issue before even with a laptop sitting in my lap for an extend period of time.

    Actually the GPU is located near the center, but the GPU heatsink is sitting top/right and the airstream from the fan under the optical disk drive is blowing out there.
    http://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/iMac-Intel-27-Inch/1236/2
    (see the metallic box at the top right and the fan at the right bottom)
    Top left is somewhat similar, there the airstream from the CPU heatsink and power supply leave the iMac's body.
    However, iStat should report the CPU/GPU/etc. values. If those are okay, the hot is merely an indication for the effectiveness of the heat management, i.e. that the heat is led away from the sensitive parts to the outside via the body. From an engeneering standpoint, Apple has excellent heat management, always with noise-reductino being part of the design.
    I've had the same with a 24" iMac too btw ... top left (CPU airstream) corner getting quite hot when it does number crunching. And hot to the touch 60°C are still well within the working limits of a CPU (and a GPU can still operate nicely at 90°C).
    Personally I appreciate that Apple is trading heat for noise (as long as it's not a laptop burning into my upper legs).

  • Please to help rookie with quad core on P35 Neo 2 (MS-7345)

    I bought a home built computer (specs below) for my sons almost a year ago and have had nothing but trouble with it.  After I finally realized that the graphics card was over-heating it worked better for a bit after replacing Radeon 9600 with some crappy one.  Then I reinstalled XP and seem to have lost drivers for some of the functions of the MB like sound and networking.  Presently it is an impressive looking paperweight with fantastic specs.
    It does boot to XP and has internet connection now that I stuck in a NIC card.
    I was foolish enough to install and run microsoft genuine advantage and, because it didn't pass, have to read about it every boot and login.  So I'd like to reinstall XP again.
    I do have System info for Windows (SIW) installed. 
    I bought system so sons could play Call of Duty 4.  When I try to launch COD it gives message:
    "Error during initialization:
    Miles sound system initialization failed.
    Make sure you have your sound card's latest drivers and DirectX installed."
    I have installed latest DirectX but do not know what to do about sound card as it is function of MB, I think.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated as to next steps or what further info I would need to gather to solve.
    Thank you!

    Thank you again for that page.  I had looked (in vain) for this because I did not receive the MSI cd with this computer.
    http://www.msi.com/index.php?func=downloaddetail&type=driver&maincat_no=1&prod_no=1213
    I dl'd all of the files and began to install from the bottom up.  The "Intel INF Drivers for 3/4/5 Chipsets" went fine but in the 'read me' for "Intel Matrix Storage Manager Driver" it says that if none of the supported RAID or SCSI controllers are present in the Device Manager/IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers then your computer is not in RAID, SCSI or AHCI modes and these drivers are not applicable.  Does that makes sense considering the type of hard drive?  Do hard drives have drivers? (apologies if this does not make sense)
    Also, the "Realtek PCI-E Ethernet Drivers" only contains dll, system and a security catalog file.  I do not know what to do with these to install.

  • Crazy to install CS2 on Quad Core 64 bit Windows 7 notebook?

    I've been a video producer/director/editor since 1970 and have witnessed most all the progress and insanity of the "corporate wars" to dominate video production and later, video editing.  I no longer see any reason to differentiate between still photography, video production, editing, web authoring, print production, graphics, CGI, CAD etc...ad nauseum. My dream has long been to have one very powerful laptop that could do most everything that a creative person desired on location anywhere in the world.
    My new notebook is an ASUS Quad Core G71GX with 6 GB RAM - an Nvidia Geoforce GTX 260M - and 2 - 500 GB, 7200 rpm hard drives - Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit OS. These days I shoot most video using a Canon SX1 IS at 1080 30p and the files are playing back beautifully on the 1920x1400 display at full frame rate. So for me that covers the basics. I will be upgrading from Windows 7 Home Premium to Ultimate shortly. Does anyone have issues/questions about the platform?
    As to the software . . . I have been using Adobe stuff for 20 years or so.but did not get into their video editing products until Premiere 6.5. Than I jumped in with both feet and became a beta tester for the CS2 video collection. I still have my complimentary Premiere Pro 2.0 and it still works on my older XP Pro notebooks.
    But now we are here in 2010 and all the major PC platforms are running 64 bit Operating Systems and I just figure that I should hold out for a true 64 bit Master Collection [which many people call CS5]. In the meantime I decided to install my CS2 Creative Suite and Premiere Pro 2.0 just so I could have the benefit of these programs while I am waiting for the 64 bit to release.
    I purchased my CS2 back in 2005 as a download and last night made the attempt to install it onto the ASUS. As expected the serial number did not work so I called Adobe Installation support and got started after they prompted me for the "challenge" code. When I entered it the installation began nicely UNTIL the first folder [CS_2.0_UE_Ret_D1] finished loading and UP POPPED a window saying "Please insert CD #2" with only an OK button. Well, I didn't have any CDs because the suite was delivered as a download way back when and there seems to be no way to get to Disk 2 folder.
    I finally decided to Quit the install when up pops a window that says [paraphrasing]. Your Photoshop program on Disc 1 has been verified and so try again to install. I said OK and up pops a window with all the various programs and the option to select Install. I selected each one [except GoLive because I now have Dreamweaver CS4] and proceeded. I sort of kluged my way through the transition from D1 to D2 to D3 to D4 folders and by all indications had a successfully installed, registered and activated CS2 suite on the ASUS notebook. Restarted the machine.
    Opened Photoshop and up comes an error message "Your Adobe Photoshop user name, organization or serial number is missing or invalid. The application cannot continue and must now exit" "OK", which I pressed and Photoshop closed. Checked the other CS2 programs and none of them would open.
    I would appreciate any pointers on how to get CS2 Creative Suite to install properly since Adobe Tech Support says such installation help is out of date and recommended this forum.
    BTW: I run Videography Lab and am the "seminal author of videography". OCT 1972 American Cinematographer. I have a different take on the meaning of videography than most folks. After 38 years of research and contemplation I believe "Videography means 'I know to write' or conversely 'writing my knowing'" The platform that I've been talking about is the technology tool that enables such communication in "the Age of Videography" [Miller Freeman Publishing - 1996].
    Call me crazy and than help me get this sorted out
    Bob Kiger - [url removed by host]
    PS: Does anyone beside me expect a sudden and dramatic shootout between Final Cut Studio & Adobe Creative Suite soon?

    Hi Michael--
    Upon continued research we found your statement "CS 2 isn't compatible with Windows 7 32-bit no less 64-bit." not quite true. We grant you that, in it's raw state, Windows 7 will not install, activate, register etc. CS2 programs. That's been the Adobe position for quite a while.
    Now that we have Windows 7 in hand and can play we found that if you have Windows 7 Professional or Ultimate edition you can acquire for $89.95 and download/install in an hour or so "Windows Virtual PC" and "Windows XP Mode".[Note: This feature is not available on Home editions].
    We purchased the platform and once it is installed we had a "Windows XP platform" on our Windows 7 machine. From that point forward the installation of CS2 and many other of our old favorite programs was a snap. We've opened and worked with Photoshop, Illustrator and InDesign etc. with no problems.
    And, by the way, Premiere Pro 2.0 intalled easily on Windows 7. We're testing it now with some sub-1080p projects.
    As to the long nagging problem of Adobe Installer not recognizing the downloaded CS2 CAB files during installation, we worked around by just saying OK when the installer asked for the next disc and immediately clicked on the desired disc in a seperate exlorer window which contained all the download files.
    So that's the workaround for us. Now we wait to see who wins the race to enchant users with 64 bit editing and imaging suites.
    Thanks for all your help.

    I am running Photoshop CC 2014 on Windows 8.1 with an AMD quad core processor and AMD E1-2100 APU with AMD Radeon HD 8210 Graphics Card. I have installed the latest driver version 13.152.0.0. When I activate puppet warp, the mesh appears over the image and I can place the first pin.  However, when I go to add the second pin, Photoshop crashes. I have tried with on a new, blank file, with just a few lines on it, but, as soon as I place the first pin, the image disappears, and then, as soon as I click anywhere else in the image, Photoshop crashes. I have followed all the online advice about settings under the Preferences/Performance interface, but nothing fixes the problem. Can anyone please help?
