My CPU temperature averages at 60 degrees celsius. And you can easily feel how hot the plastic gets in a certain area under my monitor. It's frustrating, because I'm paranoid about the thing failing on me again so soon. I constantly back up my info. Also, I love my PPC...and I'm not sure about...

I downloaded a temperature monitor for my system. Gives me readings for CPU, Hard drive, and Smart drive. Would you happen to know how hot, is TOO HOT?

My hubby got me this iMac, and I swear, it's been in on the repair bench more times than I can count. Luckily, most of it was under warranty. But I was just wondering, if anyone here's got the same system (or knows someone that does) and has 'modded' it to run cooler? Current Operating...

Got my printer sorted out! Yay! My brother's friend offered to have a look, and after a bit of cleaning and new cartridges--IT WORKS! Finally. Coz I was about to tear my hair out. Again, can't thank the members of this site enough, for all your great help! ^_^

Sorry, I haven't updated in so long! Anyway, I ended up sending my Quadra back to Lacie. After a rather frustrating time of emailing back and forth--coz big companies just LOVE customer care--I finally sent it out to be repaired. Lacie claimed to have done a 'thorough' diagnostic of the unit...

No. The print head is fine. I've done all the maintenance to it. It still prints beautifully, except for the same cartridge error. I have to save up some money to buy a new Photo Cyan cartridge. If the error message disappears, then it's the stupid cartridge. Will rubbing alcohol be safe to...

This is the primary printer I have connected to my iMac, and it's been trouble-free until recently. Just wondering if anyone out there's experienced a problem like this on their printer: Error 'the following ink tank cannot be recognized'. It comes up everytime I need to print anything now...

I've used Disk Utility to 'verify' the drive, and it's been passing every time. It still sputters, but does it more often when the Quadra's switch it set to 'Auto'. I've completely powered off the Quadra unit, since it's pretty much useless now. But then I still heard this hissing noise. Turns...

Hi! I'm just wondering if you're running into any problems with your Lacie d2 quadra hard drive? I've got a 500gb one as well...but it's been giving me the 'blinking blue light' treatment. Some threads have hinted that it may be a potential failure, but not specifically with the d2 quadra.

I have an 1.8 ghz powerpc G5 with osx 10.4.11. Attached as back up are two 500 gb Lacie external firewire hard drives: first one's a 'd2 hard drive extreme with triple interface', the other's a 'd2 quadra hard drive.' I've had no trouble with either drive, until my newest acquisition...
