Resurrecting a Dead G5: A Journey of Repair and Rebirth

As I sat in front of my computer, staring at the dead body of my PowerPC G5, I couldn't help but feel a sense of despair. The machine had exploded on me years ago, leaving it as a mere shell of its former self. But I was determined to bring it back to life, and so began an epic journey of repair and rebirth.

I started by examining the damage, taking stock of what needed to be replaced or repaired. "Well, son of a bitch, it's working," I exclaimed, as I gazed upon my trusty MacBook Pro. It was about to become the donor for the resurrection of my beloved G5. With the help of some conversion technology, he transferred the downloaded files from his MacBook Pro to the G5 and then used the G5 to burn a CD.

As we worked, I couldn't help but think about how far technology had come since this machine was first built. "I love you, Macintosh Garden," I said wistfully, recalling the old days of Apple's glory. My companion chuckled at my nostalgia, and together we set out to revive the G5.

We needed a special tool for this task - the Apple Service Diagnostic (ASD). It was a crucial step in the process, as it allowed us to initiate thermal calibration on the CPU. "All right, let's try it," I said, holding down the Option key and pressing Enter. The computer sprang to life, and we watched anxiously as the calibration began.

The next 10-30 minutes were a blur of anticipation and excitement. Would our efforts be enough to bring this machine back from the dead? As we waited, my companion couldn't help but tease me about the old school font on the ASD menu. "I love the old serif-looking font," they said with a chuckle. I smiled wryly, knowing that sometimes these small details were all it took to make something special.

Finally, after what felt like an eternity, the calibration was complete. We hit quit and restarted the computer, and to our delight, it roared back to life - much quieter than before, thanks to our repairs. "It's working," I exclaimed, relief washing over me. My companion smiled, and we high-fived in celebration of a job well done.

As we explored the inner workings of my resurrected G5, I couldn't help but feel a sense of pride and accomplishment. We'd brought this ancient machine back from the brink of obsolescence, proving that even the most broken of things could be fixed with patience, persistence, and a little bit of magic. And if you're curious to see more tech episodes like this one, I invite you to subscribe to my channel, Computer Clan - where we explore rare and retro tech, new tech, and all sorts of electronics and gadgets.

With the G5 humming away now, I knew that this journey was far from over. There were still plenty of tweaks and adjustments to be made, but for now, I was content to bask in the glow of my machine's newfound life. And as I settled back into my chair, surrounded by the warm glow of screens and humming machinery, I couldn't help but smile - the world is indeed a better place because of this little resurrection.

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: en- So a couple of years ago,someone donated this Power Mac G5 to me.And when I went to plug it inthe fricking thing explodedand nearly electrocuted me.(electronics popping)Whoa!So today we're gonna try to resurrect it,and you're coming with.Sponsored by Linode.(electronic music)Hey guys, how are you all doing?If you're new here, welcome.My name is Krazy Ken, andthis is the G5 which exploded,so I need to fix it.This is one of the liquid cooled modelsand that fricking very corrosive Dex-Cooljust leaked into the power supply.Now, I do find it weird that the pumpsfor the Dex-Cool were locatedlike near the power supply,above the power supply,so if there's a leak that coolant,that corrosive coolant willjust fall into the power supply.Not sure why it was made that way,but it probably wasn'tthe smartest decision.Now, here's the problem.I don't have the skills or theparts to complete this repairto make this system work again.Now, if only I knew someonewho was smart enough,someone with the brainsto complete this projectand someone with the parts whocould complete this, make it-- Hi, Ken.- It's Greg Hrutkay from Hrutkay Mods,how long have you been under that desk?- It's been a few years now.- Damn, you got like a little mattressand everything down there,you've been sleeping in, what?Greg, thank you for coming alongand we're gonna try toget this thing working,what do you say?- Sounds good.Okay, so basically anytime you get a G5you need to figure outwhat model you have.See if we can open up here.Anytime if you look in hereat this label right here,if it says 2.5 or 2.7it's always liquid cooled.And you need to check everythingbefore you plug it in.- Always, they never did an aircooled version of that, huh?- No, 2.5s, no 2.7s.- Learned something new today.- That's even the quad core,the quad core was a 2.5.- Gotcha.- Then you'll want totake this rivet out right hereand pull the cover offand check everything.- And I'm starting to see,it looks like we havesomething leaked on here.- Yeah, you definitely had fluid here,you had fluid on the tray too.- Oh nice.- But you pull the security river out hereand it should slide back like so.And then you're gonnawant to inspect the pump.Really the rule of thumb iseven if you don't see any damage,no leakage or anything like that,you'll want to still take the pump out,inspect the CPU's andinspect the power supply'cause it could have seeped down in thereand you would've never known.We're going to be taking mydual 2.7 air cooled converted,we're going to take the aircooler heat sinks out of thatand we're also gonnaswap out the power supplyand we'll also clean up the CPU's,see if they're salvageable.If we're lucky we canslap it all back togetherand press the power buttonand it should start up.- If we're lucky.'Cause, you know, the KrazyKen is just so generous to us.- Yeah.- So Greg brought in his giant G5,this was the converted oneyou were saying, right?- Yep.- So we're gonna borrowsome parts from here, right?What's the next step?- Well, we'll show you what's in here.- Oh boy.- Oh, so that's what you meantby the panel's not workin' right, okay.- So yeah, it wouldn't befair converting with those.So Ken, do you know whatthe number one rule isabout GM Dex-Cool?- What's the number one rule, Greg?- It's corrosive.- Oh, so you got to wear gloves.Purple gloves.- Yeah, purple gloves.- So, what's next.- So what we're going to be doingis taking the cooler out firstand then getting downinto the power supply.- And normally you could justuse an Allen key like this,but this is a two and you need a 2.5.- Yeah, I brought a two anda two and a 2.3, or a three.- Yeah, but not a 2.5, so what's the plan?- So we're going to be usinga 2.5 on an iFixit extension.- Thank you, iFixit.- Yeah, thank you.- Not sponsored?- I was gonna say, not a sponsor,unless Kate gets back to me, then.- Forgot to take the fan out here,so we'll just set this over here for now.So we've already taken allthe screws out of here.It should in theory, just lift up.- In theory.- Usually doesn't,just in theory, but you know.Just grab it and pull straight up.Ah, that was actually pretty easy.- All right.- Hey, how about that.It's not looking too bad.A little corrosive.- Oh, oh, and something's dripping.- Oh yeah, it's drippin' good.- Oh no, yeah, I can see,there's something on these like contactsor whatever those are.- Look at the rust on that.- Oh, that's juicy.- All right, Ken,so we're gonna be takingthe power supply out,which involves taking ascrew out here and here.We also need to do a visualinspection of the whole board.I see some corrosionon this CPU socket hereand the number onething about GM Dex-Cool,other than the fact that it's corrosive,is it's also highly conductive.- Yes, perfect for electronics.- Exactly.- Oh yeah.- Oh.- You can tell that thatthing did a lot of absorbingand not really.- Well, that's what it'sfor is to absorb the liquid.- Can only go so far.- Yeah, I see why it blew up.- Oh shoot.- Oh yeah, it's just stripping.- But of course.That one comes out fine.- Yeah, yeah.But this one you need a, Idon't think I can get it off.- Yeah, we're gonna need som little,something with more torque or something.- When all else failsjust bring out the pliers.(Ken laughs)Oh yeah, that worked.- Oh, nice.Hey!Oh!- Yeah.- Some nicecorrosion there, beautiful.- Well the mainpart of the power supplypower delivery is right here and there.- There's a lot of rust there.- Yeah, that'swhere most of the liquidseeped into it.- Powdered sugar or something.- I wouldn't lick that.- Nope, I've tried that one.No, I'm just kidding,i have not.Don't do that, kids.- Yeah, don't do that.- That's how you die.- Ooh.- What's up?- I see more corrosion.- Oh.- It seeped all the wayto the bottom power supply.- Oh my gosh!Holy (bleep)!Holy!Oh my, what the?This has been sitting herefor just ever just festering.(Greg laughs)It's like a cinnamon roll.- Oh yeah, a reallynasty cinnamon roll.Here's an interesting thing,we need to get to this screw here.- It's just covered in corrosion.- But it's still coveredin actual liquid Dex-Cool right here.- Oh my gosh.- That is actual,still wet Dex-Cool.We're just opening it to showyou guys what blew up in here.- Right, we don'treally need open itfor the sake of this repair,but it's nice to show what broke.- Scalpel.- Yeah, scalpel.- Pliers, mayonnaise.- Mayonnaise. (laughs)- First off, I'll point outthe no screwdriver label herewith the lightening bolt.AKA, don't be using a screwdriverto pry one of these open.- Do you want like arubber tool to open it up?- I think this will work.As long as I don't jam itinto something we'll be fine.- All right.- Don't do this at home, kids.- Do it at your friend's house.- I actually don't see anything that.- I was gonna say, I don'tsee anything, oh wait.What's going on over, is that normal?- That is probably not normal.Fuses look fine.- So now that we disposed of thatdisaster of a power supply,Greg's got the pump now.So what's next there, doctor Greg?- Well, on this pumpis the two CPUs we're trying to salvage.The contacts on hereare definitely corroded.You gotta be carefulscrubbing those though.I decided to do the less damage,more than likely least damaged one.To build up the suspense,but that's okay.- Oh gosh.- Oh gosh?- Yeah.- Oh!I see crystals.- I would normally like offer to hold it,but like I don't have gloves.I don't want to burn my skin off.- All right, you ready?- Yup, here we go.- Actually not that bad.- From the initiallook, it's not terrible.- We'll have to cleanup the capacitors here.It's still actively leaking.- Just an ecosystem of like wet.- Or get it outta here naturally.- All right, ready?- Here we go, three, two, one.Oh.- Well, I mean.(Ken laughs)I think it's salvageable, honestly.- I think so too.- There's a good possibilitythat when we get this wetand start taking stuff andscrubbing it with a toothbrush,the capacitors are just gonna fall off.- It's like brushing yourteeth, oop, my tooth just fell.- Exactly, that's exactly thesame thing that happens there.- It's just decay.So I went out and grabbedsome isopropyl alcohol'cause I didn't have anyand now Greg is going tocontinue with trying to cleanoff some of the corrosion.- We're gonna first attack the back pane,the logic board itself.The best idea would be totake the whole thing out,but I really don't want to do that.We'll do that and then we'll tryto get all the Dex-Cooloff the bottom of this,and then we'll attack theCPUs and try to save them.- We secretly switchedGreg's isopropyl alcoholwith Folger's crystals,let's see how it works.- Scooped out allthe gunk in the back.- Yeah, it was nice and brown.- Oh, it's delicious.- Paper towel full.- Forgot to clean the power supply cover.- And while you were doing that.- We noticed that the anodizationor the anti corrosion coating that's on ithas been eaten away from it.- So there was a bunch of rust thereand when he scraped it away.- Yeah, it's totally gone.- Different color, yeah.It's totally stripped, but it's okay now.- And what we're going to dois we're going to firstget these heat sinks off'cause we're not gonna needthem for the new neat sinks.And after that, we're going to,I found that soaking them alittle bit in the bowl firstwill help loosen everything up.So we're going to dothat, see what happens.Doesn't really fit in this bowl very well.- The biggest bowl I have, I'm sorry.We can fill it up higher if you need.- We may have to.- I feel like we're on a cooking show nowor something like that.Add the isopropyl alcohol andlet it sit for 20 minutes.- The nice thing isit also cleans the CPUdie at the same time.Good thing iFixit supplies uswith a nice plastic scalpel.- That's true, we do have this one.Not a sponsor for today buthopefully in the future, iFixit.Our real sponsor though isLinode and they're awesome.- Is Linode our sponsor today?- Yes, they actually are.And that could be the perfect segue.- Yeah!- So I had my miniature PowerMag G5 here with me todayto talk to you about something cool.And we're gonna do thatwhile I let Greg concentrate for a bit.But for real, my awesome friends at Linodehelped make

right, let's getback to the real size G5and see how Greg's doing.- I mean, it kind oflooks like big blue boogers.If you notice the bowl is turning yellow.- I was gonna say, yeah, it's.- Yeah.I think we should probablyattack the socket firstwhile this bowl is turning yellow.This card I'm 50 50 on saving,without a supersonic cleaner.Which would clean this really fast,we don't have much of a choice.- Guess I gotta put one inthe budget for next year.- Yeah, that would be nice.- Ultrasonic.- Ultrasonic.- Nothing like goingthrough half a bottle.- Eh, they're a dime a dozen.Okay, now I'm smelling it more.- This is where it'sgonna get interesting.- How so?- Well, if I start scrubbing thisand capacitors start coming offwe might as well just throw the card away.- Well, capacitors didn'tcome off of this one.- No, cause it didn'thave a whole lot on it.- True, true.- Oh, that one just broke.- What, a capacitor?- Yeah.- Oh shoot, yeah.I mean, to be fair, you didwarn us that that could happen.- Yeah.That one was the gunkiest one on here.- So the whole thing's not gonna workwithout that capacitor though, right?- It might.- Hmm.- You know, honestly, I mightbe able to carefully clean it.Oh, nope, it just fell off.So we're going to be buildinga single core 2.5 for now.- Thanks for sacrificingyour parts for this G5.- Well, you know, it's notdoing anything right now anyway.You don't have a soldering iron, do you?- No, I don't.- Okay, so we're going tobe removing the heat sinksthat I put into my 2.7 out,plus my working and fried CPUand the working power supplywhich I've already verified worksso we don't have to open it.And then maybe we'll get luckyand your computer will actually turn on.- That would be awesome.- Without a bigspark flying out of it.- Good times, except they're not.- One.- Giant ass heat sinks, holy frick.- Yeah, these I thinkare the 2.3 heat sinks.They might be the 2.0.Now we just gotta getthe power supply off,which I think I might be ableto do with it on its side.This one, the RAM's in the way.That wasn't a problem on yours.- Yeah, I guess I took the RAM out.I probably put the RAMin my air cooled G5,which we put on wheels in a past episode.So we'll probably have totake the RAM out of there.- We're getting alongthrough here pretty quick.It's almost like I'vedone this multiple times.(Ken laughs)- Oh, okay.- Oh yeah, you can see the giantscrapes I just put into it.There we go, a fully functionalAC Bell power supply.With dust included.- Oh yeah, thank you,I've always wanted dust.- Yeah.So now Ken, we're taking the,I believe this is my friedCPU, off of this heat sinkso we can put yourhopefully good CPU on it.This is one of my favoriteparts about these heat sinks.Solid copper block.- Ooh.- Yeah.- That's very nice.- Yeah.Ever wonder what a 2.5 G5 looks like?- So that's what, oh cool.Got the IBM logo on there and everything,that's pretty sweet.- Yeah.So we need to get this heat sink off.Ow, that hurt.- So sorry.- Ow!- There's so many screws here.- I know.I should've probably kept track of 'em.Just makes it more funto put back together.- Oh, totally.- So let's get the thermal paste on it.It's a little gummy,we might be all right.I usually use Arctic Silver5. but I didn't have any.it should work.We'll find out.- That's kind of the catchphrasefor some Krazy Ken's Tech Misadventures.- Yeah, when you seeflames shooting out the G5.- It'll look really cool.- There we go.- There we go, yeah.Nice satisfying snap.- All right, Ken.- Final screw.- The final screw.- Look at that chonker.- You got yourself an air cooled 2.5 CPU.- Sweet.- Well we now stick that into the systemand then we stick that in the systemand then we plug it inand see what happens.- Do we need RAM?- RAM would help.- I'll get some RAM from the wheel G5.All right, let's put it back together.- Awesome.- I'll go get the RAM, you do the rest.- Me do the rest? (laughs)- So, Greg got everythingput back togetherand the reason why wedidn't show that processis because, well, we alreadyshowed it being taken apartso you don't really need to see it again.But if you really want to,you can watch the earlier partof the episode in reverse.Also what I did was Isummoned my wheel G5 computerand took the hard drive andthe RAM out of there for this.Greg, what else would youlike to show the lovely folks?- Well, we got it back together.It's now a single 2.5,as we can see right here.I actually thought sincethis is now a single G5,we could customize it a little bit.- What are you, what?Oh, look at that, isn'tthat just adorable?- So, it's almost back together.We got to put this backon and put the fan back inand then we'll be ready tosee if it blows up or not.- Even though that soundslike a big victory,which it still is, that's onlylike half the battle, right?'Cause there's still more we have to doon the calibration andsoftware side of thingsafter this boots up.Well, after it turns on, so,all right, fingers crossed.So now this is the first realbig test for this project.- Uh, Ken.- Yes, Greg.- You're gonna be plugging this in, right?- Does it have to be me?- Yes.- Okay, I'm gonna be plugging it in.I'm just a little scarredbecause the last time Idid it exploded. (laughs)So, what I'm gonna bedoing differently though,is instead of plugging it in-- Oh, wait up.I'm gonna be over herebehind this blast shield.- Greg, there is no blast shield.- Oh, come on, man!We got this, you can go behind,hide behind the giant tinfoil shield.- I might be all right.- So we're gonna go into the inletand we're gonna go into theoutlet with the switch off.Now we're gonna turn on the switch.- Pop!- You ass (bleep).(Greg laughs)Don't (bleep) with me. (laughs)Time to boot it up or?- Yeah, yeah.- Now, are the fans gonna go really fast'cause it's not calibrated?- Possibly.- Okay.Uh oh.- Uh oh?- We're not getting anything.This is a development.- So, sometimes when you put a G5 CPU init doesn't seat properly andit will do what it just did.So I loosened the screws alittle bit, pushed down on it.- Plugged the power inand it went click, click,so power's getting in the computer.- Yeah, and when we touched thatthe light lit up for split second,which means the board's got power.- Mm-hmm, you can do the honors, sir.- Thank you.Still dead.- Dang.Hmm, what could it be?- I don't know, but I thinkI'm gonna have to pullthe CPU card completely out.- Does a dual core system,or dual processor systemwork with only one in it?- It should.- Huh?- I don't know if itdoes or not, honestly.- Maybe we gotta putboth in to make it go,oh, hey, it's complete.- Yeah, and the problemis two different speeds.- That's gonna be weird.Is that gonna work?I guess we can, you want to try it?- We have nothing to lose.- That's true, but everything to gain.So we got two back in there now.- 2.5 in the top and the2.7 on the bottom, I think.- We'll see if this works.- I don't know if it willor not but we'll find out.And power.(Ken gasps)That's a good sign.- Yeah.Fans are at full speed, whichwe assumed would happen.At least it sounds like they are.- Yeah.- Okay.- So now we need totighten the CPU's down,get the whole case back together,wipe off the big giant X on the G5 cover.- I'm so glad you used dry erase marker.That wasn't as smooth as Ithought it was gonna be, but.Good job, Greg.All right, so Greg screwed them downand we put the cover back onwith the X still kindof faded in there, but.- And we also put the front and fan inand I wanted to test itone more time and see,'cause it's going to need calibratedand I don't know if it's gonnapass with two different CPUs.- Right, and if we can't calibrate itit's not the end of the world,it's just gonna be noisy, so.- Yeah, let's see how noisy it is.- Let's do it.Wait, you didn't have thefront fans in there last time?- No.- Oh, so it could be even noisier!- Yeah.- Yeah!Sorry, Steve Jobs, Iknow you don't like fans.- It's pretty noisy.- Okay, yeah.- Let's put this in there.- Gettin' a nice breeze.Uh, does it not need calibration now?- I'd say it still needs calibration but.- That's a lot quieter though.- Yeah.- Because it detected the lid was on?- Well yeah, that's part of it. (laughs)- Okay, okay.- When the cover is off there's anoptical sensor blocker here, okay.- I never knew that.- So when you put it in.- That's pretty sweet.- It automatically quiets down.- Every day you're a student.All right, yeah, let's plug a monitor inand see what we can do.So now we have the monitor,keyboard and mouse hooked upwith the old school ComputerClan mousepad, one of a kind.It's actually on our Etsystore now, you can buy it.- Really?- Yeah, you can buy the actual onethat's being used right now!And Kevin Bacon has licked it.No he didn't, I'm sorry,that selling point is a lie.Yeah, Greg, you can do the honors.- Let's see what happens.- We got a light.- That's really quiet.- Mm-hmm.- Like really quiet.It takes a while to POST.- Oh yeah.- It works great, Ken.- So, as you can imagine,we had to do a lot of troubleshootingand I won't bore you byshowing you everything we did,but we did the basic stuff,resetting the PRAM, et cetera.And we also tried a different video cardjust to rule that out.Ultimately, we decided thisis a CPU related issue.I'm going with CPU problem.- Well, at this point, sincethey're mismatched, CPU's.- We do have the dual processortwo gigahertz ones in my wheel Mac.- But after that it's notreally the same Mac anymore.I mean, the logic board would beand the video card would be.- So let's close enough, I mean, we.Do you want to try it?- Let's go try it.- All right.And if that doesn'twork we just blow it up.- You know, this projectreally has turned intolike a G5 graveyard.We're just like usingthe organs of the others.- There's G5s laying everywhere.- To make this one better, so.- Well, I don't know about making it.- Well, making it-- Run.- It's good enough.You took the dual 2.0gigahertz ones out of there.Well, they're in here now.Want to try it?Here we go.- Let's see what happens.(computer chimes)- It bonged!- Holy (bleep), what?- It bonged!- Oh!Oh wait, the video, themonitor's not plugged in.- Oh.- Yeah.- There's no video, ah!- I was just patiently waiting.Holy!- Whoa!- It's like it's posted now.- I can feel a nice breeze.- Monitor's still not coming on.Ah, yeah, it just posted.- Okay.- I think.- Oh.- Hey!- Hey, there's my squirrel!Well, son of a bitch, it's working.Yeah, it's running leopard.- It's also extremely loud.- It is extremely loud.Yeah, I guess we gotta calibrate it.- Yeah.I mean, unless you wannahear this melodic soundall the time.- Not really.- Not really?- So we gotta burn animage to a CD to do that?Do you know where to get the image from.- Macintosh Garden I think.- I love you, Macintosh Garden.All right, well, let's try it.So with the help of someconversion technology,he just transferred the downloaded filesfrom his MacBook Pro, new MacBook Pro,to the G5 and then heused the G5 to burn a CD.It was ASD we needed,the Apple ServiceDiagnostic, whatever it is.That's what we needed,not AHT, Apple Hardware Test, separate.All right, let's try it, I'llhold down the Option key.- Actually, holddown the C key right now.- Okay, yeah, we'll see what happens.(computer chimes)I just hope this calibration works,'cause it's getting late.(Ken chuckles)I can just feel the wholelike desk vibrating.Oh?Oh (bleep), hey.- There we go.- I have never, I'venever seen this before.- Really?- Yeah, I've never used ASD.I love the old like seriflooking font and everything.- Yeah, they basedit off the OS9 stuff,it's all classic.- All right, so Ihaven't done this before,but I do see a menu thatsays thermal calibration.Initiate?- Yep.- All right.Calibrate unit and starting calibration,this will take 10 to 30 minutes,calibration starting on CPU 0.All right.- Yeah, as long as the CPU's are good,it should. in theory, pass.- Okay, sweet.- In theory.- In theory, famous last words.CPU 0 and CPU 1 calibrationpassed, all right.Just hit quit, I guess.- Hit quit and we'll restart the computerand once it restarts, it should be quiet.- All right.I'm gonna have to fiddle with thissoftware some more someother time, it looks fun.- So far so good.- Much quieter.I think it worked, man.Thanks to your genius power.And spare parts and my spare parts too.- Yeah.- Oh wow.That is much quieter now.Let's go to about this Mac and yeah,dual two gigahertz powerPCG5 with four gigs of RAM.It's working, guys.We resurrected, mostly Greg,resurrected the G5 thatexploded on me years ago.Holy crap.- It only took a newpower supply and new CPUs.- RAM from the other computerand the hard drive fromthe other computer as well,'cause that just wasn't in there.- So really the onlything left is the caseand the logic board, but hey, it works!- But hey, it's good enough.Thank you so much forhelping me fix this thing.Where can the fine folks find you?- You can find me over atmy channel, Hrutkay Mods,where I do videos like thisand mostly electronics,but a little bit of other things too.- Well, thank you very much,Greg, for all of your helpand helping me save my G5.The world is a betterplace because of you.And if you guys like to stickaround for more tech episodescoming out all the timeI encourage you to subscribeto the Computer Clan right here.I love making episodesabout rare and retro tech,new tech, and of course scam tech.And hey, if you like thisepisode, you know what to do.Thanks, and I'll see you next time.Catch the crazy and pass it on.(electronic music)\n"
