M5120 Backlit Accessory Kit driver software
Posted by: haplain on 2013-09-11 11:00:53
I'm in desperate need of the driver for a Macintosh Portable M5120 backlight accessory kit. The HD the Portable had I believe died. It's a Quantum ProDrive ELS which I'm told are notorious for that. I'm in the process of doing everything I can to recover the driver from the dying/dead HD but think that it might be an unsuccessful venture. If anyone would be kind enough to share the file with me I'd be forever grateful. Shoot me a PM if anyone has any info or needs my email for the file.

I'll post it all tonight. Thanks to my buddy cangrenade I was able to get the driver I need. Thanks again cangranade, seriously! I've got it all up and working so now it's picture time. Who wants to just see parts 😉

awesome, seems simple enough. also... how cool would a led light bar be, to a normal 5120 screen, just feed it a G & 5v line from the modified HD cables that i make,

pretty much an automatic on/off from that.

well that board gives it the ability to have variable brightness control via the control panel.

basically a PWM controller board
