How much time it take to make it work ?

yea this is definitely one cool mod I remember reading about someone else doing the same thing but can't remember where... oh well, nonetheless, you can wow people with your new G4 PC hehehe... and imagine if you get a better motherboard

More people are killed annually by donkeys than die in air crashes.

I'll bet you can sell this thing for a grand on eBay. The case alone costs much more than you paid.

Just an observation - that 3 pin connector you couldn't figure out? It might be the lead for the internal speaker, unless you've already got that connected. I'm a Mac and PC person, and this really looks neat. (Plus, you would really freak out a Mac user who sees it whiles it boots up! )

I would pay good money to see my mac zealot friend see a "G4" booting up windows, and NOT though Virtual PC

That's a great idea...I tink I'll send him the link. Thanks for the idea stonhinge!

(and good observation about the 3pin connector)

Yep - No lie. This was my first case mod. It took a total of about 35 hours. Prolly would've taken less had I been more prepared and didn't goof up.

Nope, there's another cable that goes to the speaker. I have it rigged up to the motherboard's PC speaker header, so the mobo POSTs through the case speaker.

What a senseless waste of a good G4 case! I'll give you 10 points for ingenuity, but God! Thats like putting a Chevette engine in a Mercedes!
Ah, well , The worlds a better place with diversity. Incidentally, Virtual PC on a G4 (Running on Mac OS 9.1) boots Windows 98 about 4 times faster than a PC.

interesting use of your time and money.
when i want to run windows 98 on a macintosh -- for the novelty, mostly -- i just use virtual pc.
cheaper.
easier.
done.

Wohhh!!
