Hi all,
Been a while since I've posted here, but I've ran into an issue I have not seen before and was wondering if anyone else has, as I am completely stumped
Power Mac 7100/80av with the av card in the PDS slot. The card itself seems too short to meet up with the slot on the back of the case, however it still functions. When I put the top case on, it seems to rest on top of the PDS card slightly.
This will not allow the machine to boot, no chime even--yet boots like a champ when I remove the top case. I pushed in the top case from the bottom and that seems to have temporarily solved it, but sticking a monitor (or anything) on top of the unit will move the PDS card and cause it to crash.
I'm thinking the card not being seated securely in the slot may have damaged it or the logic board, and the top case might make it unseat or fail some way...no idea.
Any ideas?
