    G5 Quad in Classic makes fans take off

    Hello all. Just picked up a G5 Quad in excellent condition. I need this machine for some old software I use for my business. I swapped out the hard drive from my ailing G5 2.3 (from early 2005). The Quad is from late 2005. It boots up and works great except when I open up an app in Classic...

    iMac stuck loading at 75% with full fans constantly. A1312 2009

    I have a 2009 A1312 iMac I am trying to get fixed but I can't really figure out what the problem with the OS loading. I have tried multiple HDD's however all seem to get stuck at the apple logo with 75% loaded. I think the reason the fans are 100% are that there is no OS found and the LCD...

    MBA mid 2011 stops responding for a minute or so

    A few months ago I spilled my MBA with water, opened it, dried it, everything works now, except I get strange behaviour: if I load the CPU a bit (watch youtube, watch a movie in VLC, start a game, edit in photoshop,...) the CPU goes up to 100% and the fans go top speed and the computer basically...

    ionodecache CPU >100% and fans boosting

    Hi I upgrade from El Capitan to Sierra yesterday, and now I have a process called 'ionodecache' consuming more than 100% CPU usage since then.
