The ADC connector was an Apple idea.. to run USB and video and power thru a single cable with a honkin big brick to go with it. Do you just need the DVI to ADC adapter.. or do you also need the ADC brick and cable assembly?
Well, the adapter is WAY out of my price range, but the video card isn't (less than $20.) And I'm gonna fix the G4 up and make it my play machine.

Is there a "total reset" button on this thing? I've tried the PRAM reset, but all I get now is a grey screen. I've replaced the PRAM battery again, but nothing.
Help??

That's the ATI video card/circuit, so apparently, you only have 2MB VRAM.
Here's something weird: Last nite when I did the PRAM refresh, I put the chip back in place, and now it shows I have 6Mb of video ram. (I think this G3 is coming back to life.) I just bought another video ram chip, and it arrived today. Too bad I cannot put them BOTH in.

I'm thinking there is something going on with your PRAM battery. Try changing your monitor resolution now. Also, you might consider reseating the battery, maybe when you put it in it didn't seat properly.
