Please help me! I have Panther installed on my G5. I was just using Safari to browse the web when Safari froze up on me. I tried killing the app and the rest of my machine froze completely. I waited a few minutes and nothing happened so I decided to bite the bullet and manually pull the plug, so to speak. I shut down the machine, waited a few minutes, and started it up again. It got as far as the white screen with the grey apple logo and just hung there. I figured i'd give it a few minutes in case it was running something similar to fsck. Suddenly the machine (I think it was the fans) got realllllllllly loud and louder like something was terribly overheating. I turned it off again immediately. I'm afraid to turn it back on. It's a new G5. It froze on me once before since I had it in which case I shut it down, waited a few minutes, turned it back on, and everything was a-okay. Please help :(
