Hi,
I've recently come into posession of a faulty Powermac G5 1.6, everything appears stock except the RAM, which has been upgraded to 768 MB.
The computer does power on, but no video out and no chime. I have plugged in a keyboard and tried ejecting disc, but nothing happens.
I have reset the PMU, and the only change is that the fans spin faster and the computer makes more noise. The red light inside the Powermac is on.
Does anybody know what could be the issue? I suspect it's either the graphics or the logic board - I sincerely hope it's the former - but I'm new to G5s.
Thanks,
