[QUOTE="68RC040, post: 1564369, member: 319821"] Hello all, I've gotten my Dual 1.8 G5 to almost boot into OS X using Dual 2.5GHz Daughter boards, it comes up to the Apple logo then it doesn't go past this point. Im assuming this can work but the OS might be preventing me from continuing the boot process! Any insights on this Mod? Maybe even a OpenFirmware trick? Any reply would be great thank you. So Close.. :o Ive already done the research and found the Bus speed isnt out of range for the 2.5, and Power supply can handle the upgrade, and the pins match on the board. [/QUOTE]
