Nice job. I often miss my quicksilver. Looks great. Are the power and reset buttons on the back?

Glorious! very nice indeed, I'have got a couple of these around, including the beautiful B/W
I'have been thinking to start this job for years and I did nothing yet.
Very nice thing! bravo

Hello nice build.

I´ve done the same thing.  But i used a microATX board, Gigabyte EG41MF-USH2, i did not thought that it would be possible to use a full ATX board.  Could you take some picture to show how it "fit" in the other end.  

Because i choose to use a DVD reader/writer i had to use a external DVD station that i placed in the original place.  If you are interested i could upload some pictures of how i did it.

all piece of metal are cutted, no one fit to the MB (photo 01)
the piece of plastic that retain the door need to be reduce to pass under the MB (photo 05)
for the door to be closed without the PS/2 connexion toutch the up case, the MB must be pushed to the limit smile.gif (photo 07)
the power and reset buttons are used by soldering cable into the switchs (isolate the switchs by cutting all connexions)
HD led added by drill the down plastic bouton
For me the hard work is the +- 80 solderings... as you see the 24 pins - 6 pins - 4 pins are to short

Rest the problem of DVD player... ther is no room for a standard one, solution is external or a slim one for laptop.
in my case, all my stuff is on external hd... smile.gif

Roykjepolse, yes please post yours smile.gif

Thank you and long life InsanelyMac
