Description
Finally! The hardware test reported a fault in the video RAM. So this picture comes to you courtesy of Poser 4, Photoshop 6 and a fourteen-year-old PowerMac running system 8.6 ...
The G5 is going to have a holiday and get itself a new video card (I expect). I don't mind having to do without it for a few days, but the 3-hour round trip taking the G5 to the Service Centre I could well do without (and 3 more to fetch it back ...)
Ah me; but it could be worse ...
