Kyle, et All Listas Hi! and many Thanx for the kind link which led to the downloads, which have now been gratefully grabbed. (-note for claritysake; as the eMac's AHT CD was on-hand, it's wasn't one of those which were needed. :)
But, I'm yet hopeful for some help on reviving these FW ports saga..

Are both of these FW ports really dead?? Is there no-help/way/trick of instigating a kickstart or reset for them??, as the eMacs surely won't bootoff of a USB Drive as the older fruity iMacs would&could. Any/All suggestions/advise will be mucho welcomed & very appreciated.
