Does anybody notice their iMac g5 making A LOT more noise since they installed Tiger. Mine was never that bad, and today I feel like a rocket is preparing to launch.
Sounds like the fan is going insane

Well I have read that it isnt indexing after the blinking stops in the magnifying glass. No blinking, still buzzing, very loudly. Don't know what to do. But it is very disturbing!
