In my opinion, the Power supply is a modified 6500 unit. I was given a Powermac 6500 and only kept the Logic board, wiring and PSU because they all were close to the TAM's one. I…

YIKES! Good luck man. I've got some of those PSU's out to be looked at and they are pretty special. Let me know what you can do with a swap as I might need that here at some point.

Doesn't need a PRAM battery to work/start. You can just press the power button on the back of the unit OR on the keyboard.  There is a CUDA reset button on the board you should pr…
