HI all

I have just been given a second hand powermac g5, dual 2ghz, 1.5 gb of ram and 2 500 gb hdds.

I have just installed the copy of leopard that came with it, it's all up to date with all the latest updates. Now this model does not have a built in bluetooth device so i have my targus one that i no works because i have used it in the past with my mac mini.

The power mac picks it up, and allows me to go searching for bluetooth devices how ever when i connect one , it locks the use of the mouse and the connected bluetooth keyboard. I have to hold the power button at the front.

I have reset the PRAM, but no the PMU or the nvram yet on this unit.

Cheers
