Maybe the powersupply??

I could not connect the leads from the Intel fedora board up. Could that be a problem or would it still give me video if the board was not toast?

I am unclear here. If the board has the slot for it, but the PS has no dongle for it, then the board will not power up properly. You need a more modern PS in that event.

APM Fan Connector


A keyed, 3-pin connector from the power supply connects here and allows the computer software to control the fan, turning it on or off, thus overriding the power connector. If SCSI devices are detected in the computer, the fan remains on.

This is the connector which is not provided in the alternate power supply. I do not think it is age of the PS as much as possibly something proprietary to Gateway. As the fan was not running on the original pS I was not able to tell if the connection was normally closaed or opened or sensed. That is what I was wondering if anyone knew here.
