Posted by: chet david on 2010-09-10 20:03:51 Something horrible just happened. It did it again. That means the G4 is at fault? I must discontinue use of the Yikes G4 immediately until I get a new power supply? I do not want to start a fire.

Posted by: LCGuy on 2010-09-11 05:57:53 Yes, you must discontinue use of the G4 immediately until you replace the power supply. And you don't need a specific Apple one, with a modification that takes about 5 seconds (max) you can use ANY PC ATX power supply There's instructions, and even a photo of the connector with the correct wire cut here.
