    • Removing the power supply

    • Disconnect the power connector from the logic board (this looks alot like a standard ATX connector. The lone difference is that the wire which supplies -5V on an ATX supply [pin 18] becomes a ground wire in the B&W G3. If you just plug in an ATX supply without any modifications, you'll short out its -5V output. )

    • There is a 4-Pin Cable connected to the front panel box, remove it.

    • Disconnect the internal fan cable.

    • The Fan Connector

    • Then Route all of the cables up through the case to the level of the power supply.

    • Now, you can slide the power supply towards you, and remove it.

    • Sorry, but my camera battery died, I will post photos on how to remove the logic board after I take them

    • Also remove all 3 hex screws from the rear of the case located around the power connectors. Only then, will the PS "just slide out."

The CPU socket looks identical to Intel's socket 478.

Actually, I have to call you on your comment about the PCI slots. I used to run a dual monitor setup on my B&W G3. I had an ATI Xclaim VR 128 installed in the second slot, giving me a second graphics card, with a TV tuner/AV input. It worked perfectly. The Tuner's software never made the transition to Mac OS X, sadly, so i had to boot into OS 9 any time I wanted to do recording, but it most definitely worked.

Yep, the pci slots will absolutely run graphics cards. If they didn't they wouldn't be pci slots. I also ran graphics cards off of them. However, they run like crud compared to the 66mhz slot, since they are shared and 33mhz. You can also run standard PC graphics cards, as long as there is a mac compatible rom that you can flash onto it. Reflashed cards used to sell on ebay for real good prices.
