Powermac G5 quad - where ist the SMU-Reset Button?

my G5 quad is very fast, but too loud. The Main Logic Board Backside Fan increases speed after maximal 5 Minutes up to 3000 rpm, even if the quad really does nothing. I tried to reset the SMU by removing the power cord, but no difference.
An Apple instructor sent me this:
"To reset the SMU on a Power Mac G5 (Late 2005) computer, either use the steps listed above for the Power Mac G5 (Late 2004) or:
Turn off the computer by selecting Shut Down from the Apple menu or by holding the power button until the computer turns off.
Open and remove both the metallic outer door and the inner plastic air deflector.
Remove the fan assembly immediately to the left of the processor module.
Press the SMU reset button on the logic board.
Replace the fan assembly, air deflector, and outer door.
Turn on the computer."
…but I can't find the SMU reset button. Can anybody help me?

Hello
Choose "turn off" in the Apple menu, unplug the power cord, open the side door, unplug the lower fan, put your hands on the Quad Tower Case before you touch the SMU Button, then push the button only one time.
Here is a Picture from a Dual-Core 2.0, should be on the same place:

Apples Knowledgebase Article says it works also like for older Late 2004 G5's. A little confusing for me.

  • How can i delete all data from treo 750 - where is the hard reset button for the treo 750

    I'm giving my phone to my brother and want to delete all my data from the treo 750 (AT&T).  All the other posts I read doesn't tell me where the reset button is.  Please Help!
    Post relates to: Treo 750 (AT&T)

    Hello and welcome to the Palm forums.
    A hard reset wipes everything off your device. A hard reset is performed by holding down the power/end call button while removing the battery from your device for a few seconds. Keep your hand on the power/end call button until you put the battery back into your device. After you put the battery back in, the screen will say "Palm Powered." Take your hand off the power/end call button. You will now see a screen in 5 languages prompting you to erase all data from the palm. The screen will say "erase all data? Yes - up, no - down" and you need to click on the up arrow (button on the 5 way navigator on the bottom of the treo). This will erase all the info from your device.
    I hope this was helpful!

    Why I need a code for rent a film and where ist the code? (I dont have a card)

    it's unclear what you mean
    you say you dont have a card which I guess is you don't have a creditcard
    in which case the other option is to pay by a giftcard which include a code which you put in
    because to rent you have to pay otherwise it's not really renting

  • Location of the SMC Reset button in a Mac Pro

    I'm having trouble finding the SMC reset button.
    +The hatter+ said, "use the SMC RESET button inside, under drive #4. "
    This page http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=304123 said;
    "Another way to reset the SMC on a Mac Pro computer is:
    From the Apple menu, choose Shut Down (or if the computer is not responding, hold the power button until it turns off).
    Open and remove the metallic outer door.
    Press the SMC_RST switch that is located slightly below and to the right of the row of diagnostic LEDs. Use a non-metallic, non-conductive object, such as a wooden pencil.
    Replace the metallic outer door.
    Press the power button to start up your computer."
    I can't see any row of LED's - can't even see one inside there...
    Can anyone help me with the location of this button?
    Thanks

    It is as small or smaller than the eraser on a pencil.
    It is easier to see with a flashlight and with the case over on its side, and pull out drive #4.
    I thought Apple had a page with a circle around it in the tiny pdf or manual that came with the unit. They should have it in the tech note.
    and if you have a PCI card in the top slot, someone said they had to remove it to get access.

  • Where is the outline promote button on the format bar?

    I'm working on an outline in Pages. I found  the keyboard shortcuts i.e. Tab, and Command Tab, for promoting and demoting a line, after a lot of looking. But where is the promote/demote button, in the tool bar, that Help keeps mentioning.  Where the heck is it?

    You will need to customize your Pages v4.3 toolbar and add these Increase and Decrease buttons.
    Pages > Menu > View > Customize Toolbar ...
    Drag and Drop the following icons from the customization panel to your Pages toolbar and release.
    Now you will have promote/demote control over indentation in your outline.

  • HT4623 where is the 'Update Software' button on iPhone 3?

    Having found the page for software updates on apple info pages,
    but where is the 'Update Software' button on an iPhone 3, then?

    There isn't one on the iPhone 3G. That model can only be updated to iOS 4.2.1, & OTA updates require iOS 5.0 or higher.
    You have to update an iPhone 3G using iTunes.

  • Where is the firefox reset option on android tablet?

    Been told to reset firefox in a reply to another question. Trouble is, I wasn't told where the firefox button is never mind where the reset button is. I have a nexus 7 tablet, v 24. Previous answers only seem to help the windows users.

    hello drawman61, there is no reset-feature on android that is comparable to the desktop. what you can do, is to go into the system's settings > apps > firefox and tap on "clear data" - this will also delete your bookmarks, passwords & history though. the app will just be as freshly installed...

  • Where does the "Submit Form" button get created and how can I change the associated email address?

    I've created a pdf form using Adobe Live Cycle ES 8.2 and it has been working fine.  Now I need to change the email address it gets sent to when the user clicks on the "Submit Form" button.
    How can I change this email address?
    Thank you in advance

    Yes, that is correct.
    I did not manually add this button, so I am assuming it was somehow automatically created.
    It worked great up until now that I need to change the "To:" email address.
    I've look through the XML code associated this this email address and changed it every where I could find it, but it still hasn't changed my results.  So, I have no idea how to change this and as stated above, if I create a new form it automatically sets it up to be sent to the wrong email address.  Not sure why or how to change it?
    Let me know if you need further info to help me out.
    Thanks again
