[QUOTE="adriangb, post: 1195564, member: 95556"] The voltages are the same, but the pinouts are different (or so I read online). I'm going to try to test them both with a multimeter, and then modify a 24 pin to 20 pin adapted so that they're the same. I also am going to have to configure screen sharing, since I don't have a 24v rail on my PSU (the iMac appears to need one for the display backlight (or maybe, since it's the backlight after all, I can use it without). Any help/tips on this project will be highly appreciated. Right now, I'm searching for the right pinout specs, to compare with multimeter readings. [/QUOTE]
