To clarify, the actual hinge itself is intact, it's the part of the frame the hinge is attached to that snapped off. But it sounds like this might not be repairable, which would mean hunting down a replacement A1025 display assembly.

My TiBook came with one hinge already snapped off (not during shipping, this clearly happened some time ago) and I'd like to try and reattach it, but I genuinely don't know if it's even possible to disassemble the display assembly safely...is it possible and if it is, how do I do it?

Thanks, so the jumper is near the PCI slots! I was looking in the wrong place!

I acquired a G3 AIO this past weekend that was sadly a battery bomb victim. I installed a spare G3 desktop board but it doesn't boot at all. Someone I was on Discord mentioned something about jumpers to set the board as a tower, desktop, or AIO and I'm just wondering...is that true? If it is...

Yeah, tried replacing the power card, and now with both a new power card and a new DC in board it's still faulty, so I gotta wonder if something is wrong on the CPU card.

The yo-yo works fine booting my Lombard and my Wallstreet so it's gotta be the Pismo that's the problem.

It took me a couple months but I tried swapping the DC-in board and the Pismo is still dead. I guess the next step would be that power card?

The only one of those I found on eBay is $40 shipped so I hope I don't need one...I can try swapping the other power board from my working Lombard into the Pismo, though.

I did try that...it didn't work, same symptoms as before.

I recently got a Pismo (with a 500MHz PPC7410 upgrade!) but it's...seemingly completely dead? Plugging in my 45W yo-yo adapter does absolutely nothing, neither does the key combination for a PRAM reset. Is something fried? Do I need a different power adapter?

I hate to necro my own thread, but I added a CF to IDE adapter to the PDQ and now it won't boot off a CD any more? I have no idea why, I'm using the same CD as before.

So! I left the PDQ plugged in overnight, tried it again, and it magically works now? I was able to boot off a CD at last! Maybe the backup battery just needed some juice?

...what reset button on the back? I don't see a reset button anywhere.

I finally got a CD-ROM drive for my PDQ that had come without one, but it's not even trying to boot from it, even with me holding down the C key. Now, this PDQ is weird about starting up and doesn't even show a green LED when powered on, so maybe there's a power problem? Could this be PRAM...

Received the Performa 476 I purchased from @AppaloosaMac today. It runs great!
