So, I've ordered a logic board from ebay.
Shorting the green pin does cause the fan to spin, and I get a red light on the Logic board. which I doubt would prevent it from turning on). other than that, it's the same pinout (minus the 28V stuff. There was a purple line on the powersupply that isn't populated on the DA. Judging by the pinout should really be the same minus the 28v support for ADC. I did try popping my sawtooth powersupply in. a Fuse, a known IC that "always goes bad on those models"? I popped the cover off of the PSU looking for a fuse, but it's pretty damn cramped inside, and looks to be quite the process if I remove everything to troubleshoot. Popping off the ATX style connector and shorting the green pin to ground doesn't turn it on either.ĭoes anyone know if there's a known easy fix for bad power supplies? i.e. I get no power, no clicks, no fans, no lights.
POWER MAC G4 QUICKSILVER 733MHZ PC
I have extensive experience troubleshooting PC hardware, and to a lesser extent, Mac. Of course I didn't test it ahead of time. Moved some parts over from my Sawtooth.and she dead. Recently acquired a 533mhz Digital Audio model locally for almost free. Well, there’s always a bit of possible trickery (and resultant confusion) to contend with, ehh? I was too lazy to provide them all.ĪND that earlier image posted from Wikipedia showing the 933 with an ATA 5 controller… well it is from Wikipedia and subject to perpetual and possible correction… but, if this 867 QS now with a “B” board (with ATA 5 controller) does recognize larger drives…? Yes IIO, there were other Quicksilver “flavors” omitted from those two comparison images, earlier copy-pasted from. And those images I posted of the “white-tagged” 800 MHz DP QS… actually that's a 1 GHz DP processor. You’ve already found where that’s located. Part12studios: perhaps it’s best & easiest just to look on the board for that A/B I.D. (An earlier 867 processor - made in the US - was somewhat unstable in comparison.) Large HD tests - this weekend.Ĭurrently… while the A or B boards are not specifically referenced in the Apple System Profiler or under the Hardware Overview in OS X on the QS - it’s probably a safe bet to assume that Firmware Version 4.2.5f1 signifies an A board while a Firmware Version 4.3.3f2 would clue one that a B board is present. Now, there is a very stable 867 MHz Quicksilver with 80 GB HD running OS 10.4 & OS 9.2.2 with an 867 processor manufactured in Singapore. I even tested with various 867 MHz processors. Īfter all the various OS test installs here last night with the original “A” board in place… and only after finally installing a “B” board… did Firmware Version 4.3.3f2 actually make its’ appearance. In the past, have seen references to other FU installers but now cannot locate a 4.3.3f2 version updater - BUT have found and updated to other FU versions in the past (mostly for Sonnet and Newertech processor upgrades) and do remember the old Apple page listing various FUs.
POWER MAC G4 QUICKSILVER 733MHZ INSTALL
Have yet to test the “larger HD” claims of the QS “B” boards but did test various OS installs on the 867 MHZ QS with the “A” board, hoping that some OS X install or version of OS 9 to OS 9.2.2 would somehow provide that Firmware Update. But if you're only going to want one drive, go for the ADP-06 type. I seem to remember that there was a problem. If no one else can say for certain about the ADP-06 concern in the Master/Slave scenario mentioned here, maybe I can re-visit (test it) again this weekend and get back to you. Rpschultz13 & refinery noted another (similar to the Addonics) yesterday for just under $20.00. and this is why I mentioned the more expensive Addonics as that jumper setting option is provided on them. BUT with some SSDs and even some "platter" SATA drives they often have jumper settings on the drives themselves. file writes? The ADP-06 does not provide a jumper setting option. and then you'd like to also have another drive in that second position on that same ribbon cable for music / etc. Say you want to use an SSD as your boot drive with your OS and other applications/software present there. in most cases) on that HD ribbon cable for having two drives present. However there is some question as to their use in a Quicksilver - where one must designate / assign the Master & Slave relationship (via jumper settings on the bridge - or the HD. I've 2 or 3 of them in various machines / enclosures.
That Kingwin ADP-06 bridge/converter (the first one mentioned above) works well.
