I bought a "new" used Power Mac G5, PCIe - Dual 2.0 machine that has neither Apple Extreme nor Bluetooth installed.
I have both modules to install.
I opened the case and removed the speaker, fan assembly to access the mb where the Bluetooth module should go. There are also 2 antenna cables secured in a clip closeby.
After a search here I found a very clear set of instructions for the install.
After following the pics I noticed there is a connector for the antenna on the module and a connector on the other side of the module. That connector has nothing on the motherboard to click into.
Also, the 2 antenna cables hanging in the case are the same type of connectors (no end for Apple Extreme card).
Anyone have any suggestions or am I out of luck?
Thanks
