@simplexalarms I have one also, but mine didn't give me a bong,n tried everything (change RAM, Graphics Card, test with a modifier ATX power supply, buy to use processor and Nothing ... I think the motherboard is dead on mine, so sad :-(
fuck those PowerPC pieces of shit. I've been through 2 that eventually had a failed logic board or a failed HDD. Just get a new one. I know they're pricy but in the end, it will last you very long.
OMG LOOKS THESE WIRES ON BACKGROUND

I did -___- I am going to RAGE QUIT if I can't fix it
dereksmith1011222 10 months ago
@dereksmith1011222 well stop failing and fix it. Honestly though it sounds like it needs a new logic board.

@simplexalarms well I figured out that resetting the PMU or taking a stick of RAM and putting it in solves the problem......... until I restart it.

@thomasjohnusimaki it doesn't get far enough into the boot sequence to activate USB.

Perhaps you have a gpu issue... Fix that and see what happens.

I was gonna say either the motherboard or the processors but shouldn't he not even get a boot chime if either or is the case?

@Gb755c yeah, the boot chime and stuff it stored in the EFI i think... Which shouldn't activate if the mobo is dead.

Sounds like a dead motherboard.

@CJ19Productions Somewhat... I could get it into something that resembled booting fully by taking the gfx card out.
