Hello! A broken DC-in board from an ibook G3 12" 800Mhz needs replacement. I have a spare DC-in board from an ibook G4 14". The logic board connectors are not compatible. Can I strip the wires to transplant the G3 board connector to the G4 Dc-in board and use it as a replacement? I know that I still have to figure how to secure the G4 Dc-in board inside the G3 since the screws are not located in the same configuration and the “tip module” is inverted. I’m pretty sure I can figure out that one, my concern is with the voltage output to the CPU. Will the G4 14" Dc-in board output fry the G3 12"? Thanks! PS: Soldering is not an option for me, yet…will learn how to soon!
