Is there any utility that boots even though the logic board is bad. Currently, I can't boot my Power Mac G5 and I suspect that it's due to the logic board. Is there any way I can boot to diagnose the machine?

Thanks!

have you tried booting from CD? If it works hold down C and run the hardware test... what are the symptoms?
