I upgraded this 400MHz slot-loading "fruit" iMac with a 600MHz logic board/down converter (I think it came with the LB?) over a year ago and it was working great. Only weird thing was the "on" button glowed amber and not green when running. Forgot to move the iMac's internal-frame-mounted processor heatsink to match its location on the 600MHz logic board and it just abruptly shut down while using it one day. Thought maybe it overheated and auto-shutdown but it has never come back on since. And, I even relocated the heatsink in the meantime! (May want to check exact placement, though, as it was a while ago.)
Logic board does receive power and CRT does make the turn-on "popping" noise, but there's no chime, no screen image. It won't even beep without RAM installed. I did some basic logic board voltage testing (trickle power, down converter on, J7 connector), and didn't get anything for down converter on test, so that may be it. I wasn't motivated to further disassemble it and test the power/analog board fuse, so that may be it, too. So I'm selling this nearly complete iMac w/ 600MHz logic board installed (includes PRAM battery). It is missing: hard drive, RAM, airport card/caddy (never had it installed), few heat shield screws. It does come with a power cord. It's in good, clean cosmetic condition overall. Asking $5 OBO plus actual shipping from 13031 (approx 35 lbs.). Would prefer local pickup. Paypal preferred. Can send pics on request. Let me know if you have any questions. Thanks! Will Wallak Camillus, NY 13031 -- You received this message because you are a member of the LEM Swap group.
