Yep, after much headbanging on IRC with iMac600 and others, this was the conclusion we settled on. I have a box of 24V Powerbook supplies with dodgy cases I picked up at auction. …

That's where this next component comes in. Instead a connection of 5vSB, it will use a secondary internal 24v PSU from a PowerBook! The connections of the PowerBook PSU will be con…

Bunsen, I was using 5VSB of my Antec NeoPower 650 Blue for my Digital Audio mobo but eventually after time it started loosing power under extreme load and right after power button …

http://www.outofspec.com/frankenmac/wire.shtml Looking at the link you provided earlier, the two additional pins toward the top of the connector require at least 12v to start up- …

Why? Are you thinking of the +28V line? I had no problem substituting +5VSB (standby) Otherwise, a G4 requires a -lot- less power than a P4

Sat. 23rd August 2008 (5:25PM) - Quicksilver Roars into Life What? That's right. After spending a good $65 on a Gigabit Ethernet logic board, i've just gone and repaired my broke…

I see that the Gigabit and Digital Audio power pinouts are exactly the same. I succeeded in booting my DA from an ATX PS with an extension cable made for P4 logic boards. It had …

Oh weird. Those must have been like, the super gimped versions. Eww.
