OK, this is interesting. I sent the list a message last week about a G3 AIO I bought on Ebay. The power supply was dead, and I replaced it. When testing it with the cover off, it worked perfectly. The video output was flawless. I put the cover back on, and the video was really dark and splotchy... barely readable.
One of the list suggested I might have bumped one of the video settings knobs when putting the cover back on. So I disassemble the Mac, and turn it on, and the video is perfect again!!! With no adjustments! I reassemble it, piece by piece with the power on. Video is still fine. Gte the whole thing together, and look away for a couple of minutes, and the video is terrible again. So I think... something is heating up and failing.. I let the Mac cool down overnight, just to be absolutely sure... I boot it up... the video is still terrible...
