hello,
I have had an G5 mac (not a laptop) for about 5/6 years now. When i bought it i also got with it a Formac monitor. I moved house around 6 months ago and accidentally threw out one of the parts thinking it wasn't to do with the computer. STUPID!
What i threw out and what i am missing is from the back of the cable leading from the Formac monitor to the back of my G5.
I think it is something called a ADC Cable (although this one is fitted into the back of the monitor rather than being free both ends)
It splits into 3 parts after leaving the monitor, one is DVI video, one is USB and the other is for External power to drive it (kind of looks like a Female tv ariel input)
Thats the part i have lost. What ever bit plugs into the External power, female tv ariel looking thing, goes into a sort of box, thingy and then back out as a normal plug to go into the wall.
I have called about a million places and NOWON knows what it is or can help me, they just keep passing me on to the next number the suggest might help!
Can you help me?? i haven't been able to use my comp for 6 month now and have been working solely from my partners laptop.
any help or advise or numbers would be very appreciated!!
thanks
Amy
