I removed the 800Ghz G4 Processor then Replaced upgraded to Dual 1Ghz G4 Processor.
The system started with the Apple Chime and OSX 10.5.6 but then I received a kernel panic screen with errors.
Is this a OSX software nightmare?
Does the Operating System think it is trying to boot to a Single Processor? and gets confused about the Dual Processor? or was I supposed to change some settings via the sautering? scheme I have seen?
Please help....
I get White Buttons and the system just runs quiet.......
How do I get it to REINSTALL the OSX CD?
SKIPPY722 said from Fix ya "I would wipe it out and restore. But on a side note, did you reapply thermal grease for the new CPU?"
I'm adding it here but trying to get to the meat and potatoes group because I know you guys are the geniuses....here....I am IGOR......
no I did not.....is that needed? I didn't see any grease on either processor...but I would like to follow your process as I have heard that too on other system builds.......I didn't see it on this one.
I can find it at Fry's I am sure....
but can you please please tell me how to wipe it out and restore...
if the computer is not responsive....I mean I should have placed the CD in the Drive when I had the APPLE showing before the KERNAL PANIC.....
Now all I get is White Button and FAN noise.......
So I am unsure how to get back to the process of making the computer first OPEN The CD DOOR so I can PUT a CD INTO IT.....and then allowing it....
The keyboard seems unresponsive....so does the mouse....
Before it was in the programmers setting at Kernal Panic but Frozen....
So I shut down by pressing the power button.
Now when I repress the inside button for 30 secs........after unplug ofcourse....
I was going to try to RESET PRAM by holding the keys PRAM but again....I was not getting any response just the system turns on......
What should I do next to reinstall the OSX software?
thanks and mind my hump will ya? it will grow on ya! just call me "I'-GORE"
