PowerMac G5 stuck boot looping in safe mode. leopard freezes seconds after reaching the desktop.

Hi, I recently bought a dual 2.5 GHz powermac g5. It was working fine doing stuff on 10.5.8 leopard until i shut it down. Now when I boot to the desktop, it freezes up about 10-15 seconds after reaching the desktop. I tried booting into safe mode but it just boot loops and now I'm stuck boot looping in safe mode. Is there any way to recover from this?

Overheating?

I don't think it's overheating because it idled and did some production tasks really well in OS X leopard 10.5.8. post to that, it also idles nicely in boot device selector mode without doing anything weird. Thanks for the suggestion though...
