Processor Trouble Need Help!

Can anyone one please help me with this problem! I have a G4 processor: 450 MHz PowerPC G4 -
Running MacOSX ver. 10.2.8 on the main HD and Tiger on a Lacie external HD.
Lately when starting up my computer I get a "whirling/humming" sound coming from my processor???? Can anyone please tell me what the problem is and if there's a easy fix or solution... or is something major about to happen?
I got it to stop the first time by shutting down and restarting the computer (after about 3-4 tries) but it seems to be a reoccuring problem now.....what's up????? please advise thank you, john

have you connected power cable for the CPU?
Just to make sure that we are all taking about the same thing.
What BK is pointing to is the 4 pin / 8 pin power molex from the PSU?

    If is a fillable form, just tab to the next field. What we do not understand from you is IF it is a fillable form or not. If it is not, then the 3 options I gave can be used. Placing text is always a problem. You might find it useful to turn on the grid to help in placing your typewriter fields. However, if it is fillable you do not have to create any fields to type in, you just leave the tool as the hand tool and select the predefined fields with the cursor or the tab key and type accordingly. If the field is a checkbox, then you just use the space key to activate it.
    So, are we talking about a fillable form or something that has the appearance of a form, but not fields to fill in. This is what Bernd has been try to find out and you keep suggesting it is fillable as we read what you have said.

  • IDSC3 Print Booklet Troubles (need help with Teus's rotatepages.js script)

    Hi all,
    I've been reading the original Nov '05 thread on this (http://www.adobeforums.com/webx/.3bbd4bb6/17) but I'm having trouble with the script provided.
    Very briefly, I'm trying to make a 16-page catalog on letter-sized paper, using half-size 8.5x5.5 pages in landscape format. I did a considerate amount of work on the layout thinking I wouldn't have any problems later on, but when I had a look at the Preview in the Print Booklet setting I completely freaked out -- the Preview builds with the bottom half of each landscaped half-page to the right side of the page!
    Based on what I've read so far, the script provided in the earlier thread should be the answer to my headache. But when I run it as directed, I get this Javascript error:
    Error number: 21
    Error string: Undefined is not an object
    Line: 42
    Source: pdfpage.parent.rotate(90, Anchorpoint.topLeftAnchor)
    This is my first time dabbling with scripts, so this error message dumbfounds me.
    Help!
    Edo Mor

    It should work, I think, if you make a folder inside the scripts folder called "Version 4.0 Scripts" (without the quotes) and put it in that.

  • FTP Socket trouble - need help

    I'm not going to pretend that I knew enough about this before I began. My code came from this link:
    <url>http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jsp?forum=31&thread=54731</url>
    Anyway, I understand it know, but I can't seem to get through some of my errors. The biggest problem is that if I don't timeout then the program just hangs. For instance, I do a controlOut and have the timeout set at 2000 ms. After 2000 ms the code moves on to the next step, but it throws a Read Timed Out error. If I have the timeout set at 15000 ms then the code waits 15000 ms and then does the same thing. If I set the timeout to 0 (persistant) the code never moves beyond that controlOut statement.
    I'm really confused...please help! Thank you!

    Hi Auzlin, i had the same problem, the anwer is, the ftp programs change the ftp port for everyone of the files sended, after you receive (or send) each file, that is cause even if you close the connection, is not fully closed,it goes TIME_WAIT or something but the port is still open, thats the reason you cant receive another one, it needs a little while to close and this cant be controled by the program (or just i dont know how) so, the solution (or one of them) its to use a PASV command after each file, and force the server to change port, you can read that port, and send/receive another file using that port =) hope it helps, if not i cant put some code.

    Sorry for the english =)

  • 20gb Photo Trouble Need help badly

    So my 20gb photo was working fine then all of a sudden it gave me thesad ipod. Then i tried everything possible to fix it and it didnt work. Then all of a sudden it kept asking for it to be plugged into a wall charger. So i plugged it in to one and it would then go the chargeing bar and freeze. is there ne way to fix this without having to basically buy a new ipod. PLZ HELP!!!.

    This is going to sound stupid, but: drop it. Yes, I mean physically drop it, preferably on a carpeted surface from maybe around waist height.
    My 30GB iPod Photo froze with a sad face while ago, and searching these very forums I found the "drop it" technique. I figured there wasn't much to lose, but it worked - who'd a thunk it?
    Don't worry, you shouldn't cause any damage if you do it gently onto some thick carpet. The shock seems to wake the things right up. Let me know how it goes!

  • In trouble - need help: FCPX will not open - prompts CRASH report

    Tonight, 7:15pm MTN, I closed FCPX upon a short range (single connected clip) wasn't rendering.  It played perfectly, and I simply wanted to get rid of the red line above the project timeline over the clip, but nothing I did to render that section or the entire piece would remove the red/orange line above the clip, so I closed FCPX and re-booted my 12-core.  Once it rebooted, I was unable to launch FCPX - either by clicking the icon on the dock or by selecting the project in the FCPX library.
    Prior to the issue, I did the most recent software update which was for Safari 7.1
    The only other detail is that the project I was working on had to be updated which went relatively OK except I had to re-kink media.
    What is going on?  Is anyone else suddenly unable to launch FCPX?
    I am on 10.1.3 / running OSX 10.9.5.  I'm at work, so I'm on the 12-core (2 x 2.66 GHz 6-core Intel Xeon, 32GB 1333 MHz DDR3, ATI Radeon 5770, 250GB SSD, and a hardware RAID controller which addresses a 42TB SAS RAID (media drive).
    Help, please help.  -Stephen

    Tom - Thanks very much - that was shocking.  I searched this forum for recent issues wondering if the Safari update had anything to do with this - I haven't experienced anything like this in months - and when I read all the 10.1.3 worries and posts, I was surprised - I had no issues updating to 10.1.3.
    I saw Russ' post on holding down option/Command and tried it (just as you have advised) and it worked although it opened a single project I didn't recognize and then I closed it and opened my recent project and it's off to compressor now.
    I am very thankful to you and to this forum for your help!  I was going to say "you cannot imagine the pressure I'm under..." but that's BS - you of all people are probably extremely familiar with deadlines and workloads.  Steve Martin (MacBreak Studio) described us once as people who sit alone in a dark corner editing for endless hours, and his partner Mark Spencer laughed and said, "you've just described my life" and of course I was laughing too - he also described mine.
    Anyway, I'm trying to say that your quick reply is like seeing land after days of floating in the ocean!  Thank you for your constant presence and support Tom.

  • PROCESSOR OVERHEATING NEED HELP!!

    For sum reason over the past week or two ive noticed my pc kept shutting down for unknown reasons so i checked the bios after it shut down and it said the temperature was 73 degrees celcius!!  So i opened up the case and felt the heatsink which was very hot.  I was not performing any overwhelming tasks.  This is unusual my cpu normally runs at around 50 degrees or below (original fan and heatsink used and it is spinning) and the case temp is normally 30 degrees celcius now its 40.  I have 1 extract case fan and 3 intakes all working.
    I installed all the latest drivers and updated to the latest bios 1.9 (P.S could sum1 explain to me sum of the new options) i dont use cool n quiet shud i?
    Does anyone have any idea what would cause this or any suggestions on how i could fix it?
    Amd Athlon 64 3400+ (not overclocked)
    windows xp x64 professional edition
    msi k8n neo platinum
    nvidia 6800gt 256mb
    2 x 200gig s-ata seagate
    2 x 512mb kingmax pc3200 (yea i kno i think this is half my problems)
    samsung syncmaster 19" tft 8ms
    chieftec aluminium dragon with 420watt psu

    If your PC is in a cabinet, take it out or open the back of the cabinet at least.  3 intakes feeding one outtake could mean you need more outtake.  Invest in a new cpu cooler. (This forum is full of suggestions about that.  If you do not want to remove your mobo and/or backplate, think about Thermalright 90C or  one of the higher priced Zalmans.   Even before you do that, immediately apply Arctic 5 silver or Arctic ceramique in accordance with manufacturer's directions (no more and no less than recommended).  You can order it online and it is sold over the counter without a prescription at COMPUSA in America.
    To avoid running over 59 degrees celcius and to avoid permanent damage to your CPU by running in the 70s as you noted, immediately remove the side cover from your case and leave it off unti you have a viable cooling solution.  What kind of 3400 do you have (newcastle, winchester, etc.)?  Use CPU-Z to tell you if you do not know.  Finally, if you can, go into bios and set the system to cutoff at 60 degrees celcius if you can to save your cpu.
    You need to cool your system (better or adjustable fans) as well as your cpu.  Avoid direct sunlight, sources of heat and all those other common sense type things. A more powerful and efficient psu would generate less heat as it would not have to work as hard and its surface would be cooler in the case.
    Good luck.

    Apple doesn't repair it.  If there is no sign of abuse, they replace it with an identical refurbished unit.  If the warranty has expired, the fixed-price for non-warranty replacements can be found here.

  • Trouble need help?

    Post relates to: Palm IIIxe

    Hello and welcome to the Palm Forums.
    Check to make sure the memos are set to "synchronize" in the conduit settings. Click on the hot sync icon on the bottom right of your computer screen (right near where the time is displayed) and click on settings. It may take a few seconds for the list to be displayed, but after verifying that your name is listed on the top, check that memos is set to synchronize. If it is set to anything else, change it to "synchronize."
