I'm not talking about the hard disk; I'm talking about getting the cable back on the board. You can try to reattach it, but if it has to be replaced, you have to clip and destroy the old one and rethread the new one through the hard drive bay. It's not as easy as it looks. -- ------------------------------------ personal: http://www.cameronkaiser.com/ -- Cameron Kaiser * Floodgap Systems * www.floodgap.com * [email protected] -- Time flies like an arrow, but fruit flies like a banana. ------------------- -- -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
