Well, it would be nice if it got far enough to display anything... It's like it isn't even plugged in. (To power) No chime, no activity. It doesn't even make clicking noises. I'm not sure how to get to the power supply to test it, anyone know how to get it open? I was able to get to all the components, motherboard, HD, cd ETC. but I couldn't figure out how to get father then that. I've already broken one of the clips on the front panel, trying to get it back on... darn brittle plastic. Anyways, I have a 1995 Apple multiple scan 17 display. Works with all my other old computers (IIsi, DuoDock, Quadra 605, PowerMac 4400, 7500, and Beige G3 minitower)
