You might try disconnecting all periphrials, extra internal hard  
drives that you may have added and remove any non apple memory cards.  
See if you still have the same problem. If the G5 does work OK in this  
stripped down configuration you could start adding stuff back on until  
the crashes return. Slow process. :)

By the way, I assume you have at least your data files backed up in  
case at some point the computer becomes inoperable in the extreme.
