Hello. I use a 1.8 GHzPowerMac G5 for video editing with Final Cut Pro. My computer has been acting up so I did a Hardware test and an error code came up reading:

Logic Board: error detected

Error Code
2FAN/4/8: Fan For SLOT

Does this mean a fan is broken in my computer? I know a little bit about computers, but not the jargon. The test said to contact apple support for more info, but I was hoping some one here knew what it was and if it was something that I might be able to fix on my own. Perhaps it means I have to ship it off to Apple... I'm sure that would be expensive.

--Thanks a whole bunch!

Thank you Ben

I will open it up and see if the fans are spinning.

Much appreciated,
