first of all congratulations for your great si...Hi,<br />first of all congratulations for your great site and for your iMac G4 mods!<br />I'm building a mod using a 17" imac G4 with thin mini itx motherboard (Asus H81T), powered by a 19V 230W external psu.<br />This motherboard has a 15 pin female sata power connector, that i'm thinking to use to power on the monitor and inverter, due to the fact that has both 5v and 12v output, plus ground.<br />I have in mind to use a 15 pin male sata to 2 female molex adapter (like this one: http://www.ebay.com/itm/262201935919?ru=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fsch%2Fi.html%3F_from%3DR40%26_sacat%3D0%26_nkw%3D262201935919%26_rdc%3D1 ), cut off the female connectors, and connect the cables with the monitor and inverter ones.<br />In my hopes, in this way the monitor should be turned on when the computer's power button is pressed (and turned off when the computer is shut down), with no need of additional power source. <br />I'm wondering if it's possible to do… if yes, the procedure explained in the article "GUIDE: Step by Step 17" iMac G4 TMDS to DVI Conversion - 800mhz and 1/1.25 Ghz Necks Completed" remain the same or i have to change some connections?<br />Finally two questions about the 5v line and kohm resistors (independent from the "power method" used): <br />- are the resistors used to downgrade a little the 5v line?<br />- if i apply a down converter from 5v to 3.3v (like this: http://www.ebay.com/itm/351493669568?ru=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fsch%2Fi.html%3F_from%3DR40%26_sacat%3D0%26_nkw%3D351493669568%26_rdc%3D1 ), this will be more safe for the monitor and inverter? are the resistors still necessary? <br />Thanks and Reagards.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17210969903038218687noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1356325415325804255.post-80662381036658765682016-02-07T23:42:12.066-05:002016-02-07T23:42:12.066-05:00Unfortunately, the 15" is the one model I nev...Unfortunately, the 15" is the one model I never personally worked with.

I have a 20" model which is in pretty nice shape, I'm not moddling it, I just want to fix it - but from the get go it always had problems starting from the power button. It was unreliable to start, but once running it was fine and reliable. Sometimes it took several presses before it jumped into life.<br /><br />I wonder if you could comment on where I would look to get the power supply working again?<br /><br />Because the power button responded normally once the computer was actually running, to put it to sleep or wake it up, I think there is no physical problem with the start button. If I set it to start at a certain time of day it would always boot on schedule. But now I can't get it to start from the power button at all.<br /><br />I think that the power supply works fine when running, but now it’s just silent and dead.<br /><br />I'm trying to understand how the power supply actually initiates the boot sequence, it seems quite complicated. I wonder if you have any pointers about where I should look to try and troubleshoot this? I've read your description of the native power supply. The pram battery is fine and I've tested that with a 500 ohm resistor across it to load it a bit and it's in good shape, about 3.6 V steady.<br /><br />I've had the iMac open several times as far as the fan, screen and the power supply and would appreciate it if you have any insight about my problem.<br /><br />Thanks, LeewaveLeewavehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04403435640443166140noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1356325415325804255.post-37498333157057865722013-11-14T13:06:52.743-05:002013-11-14T13:06:52.743-05:00Hi!

I have a 15" iMac that's fine, and I have the LCD from an old laptop that is 15", but a much higher resolution than the 1024x768. I remember reading somewhere that the 17" imac's video chip could understand TMDS as well as LVDS (but I can't find it now for the life of me). The connector for the laptop panel fits the same one for the 17", so in theory I could just swap the 15" bezel for the 17" and it should work (if I can work out something for the inverter, the 15" and 17" inverters use different plugs)<br /><br />So could that work or am I crazy?Nebularhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01103804275088065059noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1356325415325804255.post-9863982608849306652013-07-03T20:25:00.241-04:002013-07-03T20:25:00.241-04:00Dear JBerg,

While there are 2 ...Sorry if this isn't clear. While there are 2 main cables which contain the DVI signal, there is still just one DVI signal. The term "channel" I use here to denote the color signal coded for by the wires. The grey wire contains "regulatory wires" such as power, ground, identification, on/off etc. The black wire contains "4 channels" of one DVI signal, these are 0,1,2,&Clock - these correspond to Red, Green, Blue, and Clock (refresh timing). Each one of these channels is actually composed of 3 (a triplet) set of smaller wires (positive, negative, and shield). However, it's still just one DVI signal. Could a KVM switch be wired in to support 2 inputs, sure, but it would be difficult to do without damaging the original connection to the G4s mainboard.Dremel Junkiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00351974354168162974noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1356325415325804255.post-12335197779714713022013-03-26T23:22:43.763-04:002013-03-26T23:22:43.763-04:00Unfortunately these can be very temperamental.
