g5 power mac fan problem
The problem
I've had my dual g5 for a couple of monthes, and have got used to how noisy the fans are when the processors are oscillating anywhere over 35% 45%.
Over the last couple of days the top fan located behind the cd drive has been starting up and cranking non stop at noisy high speeds, and not stoping. This is happening fifteen minutes or so after I switch on the machine.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers sean

Take a look around the forum http://g5support.com/group/ I have found it very usefull.
I think i read that there is a way to reset the fan controller if they are running to much.. can't remember anything more specific.
