And here is my thread on the Card Retainer Baffle.

Day 4: Spent some time on the lot of G5s. The new-to-me dual 1.8 (lets label them alphabetically from the top down, A through E) seems to have been stripped for parts. Since B was listed from last year as "flaky", I pulled parts to complete A, and was able to install MacOS 10.4 and 10.5. I...

Day3: I confirmed that I have FIVE PowerMac G5s of various configs. The three from 2025 were converted to air cooled. The Quad machine has no processors in it. The top two have no video card. One is missing the clear panel inside. The top new one has two processors that are air cooled...

Still refining the iPad 2 and 3 adapters, but instructions and STL files have been added to the first post.

Day 1: I was working on my iPad panel for an Apple //c. Day 2: I have collected 5x G5 towers in different configs (3 from previous year's Challenge and 2 for this year). Hopefully this weekend I can sort out at least 2 or 3 good working ones.

Why not try to convert the CCFL to LED ?

This is primarily based on the design by @ArjenCNX in this thread. I have made some modifications to the files to support any iPad 1, 2, or 3: 9.7" panel that you can rescue from a non-functional iPad. There are enough changes to warrant this as a separate thread, so I don't flood the thread and...

Anything in the works this year?

Did you click on the link in this thread? It looks like they are sold out for now.

Upgrading to 5,1 increases the CPU and RAM capacities (or speed). Check out House of Moth. Your iMac can be restored to working order with a graphics card replacement, not a simple task, but doable. Or you can turn the iMac into an external display.

Seems to be a private group.

I removed the R88-R90 and saw the VIAs were completely gone. I did not have any donor boards that had the correct size SMDs, so I used conventional through hole. Using the other leg on the top to join into existing traces. Same with some bodge wires from bottom to top. Lots of the VIAs had...

I pulled the CNY17G from this board 630-0395 (left) and the one from the damaged 630-0525 board (right). They are different versions. Installed the CNY75GB into the 0395 board, and now I get a solid image. Now I have to concentrate on the battery bombed motherboard. After using the dental...

From the three bad analog boards I had, two were 630-0395 and one was 630-0525 (other components missing or damaged). I ordered two cap kits from Console5, one for each type of board. The first 0395 board I recapped worked great. Then after looking at all the damage on the 0525, I decided I...

Like the title, I saw this video. And I just searched the forums and found @jcm-1 did it here. Although I would not do this to a //c monitor, I did recently find an old 1984 IBM 8088 clone for cheap. I haven't powered it on yet to verify the tube is working, but from searching the internet, it...

I received my two analog board cap kits from Console 5 a while ago, but I have been buried in other projects. Finally had the time to dig into the Battery Bombed analog board. The backside was quite goopy. Then I removed all the caps. Not sure if I lifted that pad or it was too far gone...

Just an update... I did get my CR10 working now, but I still need a little fine tuning before I run a bunch of Platinum PLA through it. This is the 9.7" iPad 1st Gen version of this build. I made the screw holes very tiny as they have very tiny machine screws holding it into an iPad frame. I...

So if you don't use the adapter and directly connect your monitor and VGA cable to the VGA output on the KVM, you get nothing? One guess is that each computer is trying to detect the attached monitor and it is not getting the correct signals. I wonder what it would look like if each computer...

Looks to me like a shielding issue. Poorly shielded cables or something internal to the KVM box is letting signals hop/bleed. When you hook the monitor directly to the computer, do you see the same ghosting?
