do you have any other installers? Might be bad media

I have a parts 12in g4 1.2GHz iBook if it is the GPU/VRM it works just missing the HDD. If you want it make me a offer 

I have this working no problems, just changed the resistors on the cpu to 7.5 from 5.5 and added the 12V very stable

I have a external SCSI CD-ROM I don't have a use for yours for shipping its an Apple 600e
