CED Eval

This is a graph with borders and nodes. Maybe there is an Imagemap used so the nodes may be linking to some Pages.

Exceptional Components List

  • DDR memory
  • Stick of 256 MB or better SDRAM
  • 30 GB or bigger hard drive
  • Airport or Airport Extreme card
  • Combo DVD/DVD-R/DVD/RW and CD-R/RW drive

Special Case List

eMac

Certain ranges of eMacs were manufactured with faulty capacitors, leading to very common instances of hardware failure. Check the eMac's serial number (located inside the optical drive bay door). If an eMac's serial number falls within the following ranges, it means it has bad capacitors and should be recycled regardless of working state:

  • G8412xxxxxx - G8520xxxxxx
  • YM412xxxxxx - YM520xxxxxx
  • VM414xxxxxx - VM518xxxxxx

iMac G5 (no ALS or iSight)

As with eMacs, certain ranges of the first-generation iMac G5s (specifically 17" and 20" models with 1.6 GHz and 1.8 GHz processors) were manufactured with faulty capacitors. Check under the iMac G5's "foot" for the serial number. If an iMac's serial number falls within the following ranges, it means it has bad capacitors and should be set aside for repair:

  • W8435xxxxxx - W8522xxxxxx
  • QP435xxxxxx - QP522xxxxxx
  • CK435xxxxxx - CK522xxxxxx
  • YD435xxxxxx - YD522xxxxxx
