A question for those that may have one of these specific, stock G4 Mac minis.


1.33 GHz Mac Mini ONLY

Q: Is there a resistor present at the R52 location (under the heatsink)?



Resistor location red-dotted here on a 1.25 GHz Mac mini.


And if you've ever removed (or tried to remove) your G4 Mac mini's heatsink, you might try this:


Easier heatsink removal, with a nylon spacer and steel pin from the backside.
