[X4U] Noisy iMac fan

[Mark Des Cotes]

Hi all,

An elderly woman I help out from time to time just asked me where she  
could send her G5 iMac for repair. When I asked what the problem was  
she told me the fan on her iMac would rev up so fast that she thought  
the computer would take off. After a minute or so the computer would  
freeze and and she'd be forced to restart it. I told her to hold off  
sending it anywhere until after I checked with this list. Correct me  
if I'm wrong, but I seem to remember discussions regarding noisy fans  
and the fact that the problem was software, and not hardware related.  
Am I correct in my recollection? Was there ever a solution  
discovered? I can't remember if she's running Panther or Tiger. I'm  
going there on Thursday and would like to see if I can fix the  
problem for her.
