OS 9 on my 1.25GHz MDD dual G4 screams, even though it is effectively only using one CPU under OS 9.

Did the 1.42s come as FW400? I've only seen the 1.25s as FW400, though I imagine you could just get the 1.42 out of one of the FW800s and bolt it in. Click to expand... In my c…

My setup works fine on that B&W, I have a Radeon video card in the 66mhz PCI slot (the model with the fan before they started naming them 7000 and took out T&L). I …

OK, here is the promised story: I purchased my first Mac, a IIci in November 1990. I had been using IBM PCs (XTs and ATs) for the 5 years prior that I spent as a student at The O…

Bunsen...Have you taken your pills? Click to expand... No, I ran out. Can I have some of yours? Click to expand... Sure you need some vicodin?

It should say on the fan I would expect it to be 12V dc thanx for the comments michael

It can be replaced, but you will have to open the power supply to do it, obiously you should have it unplugged, but there's some hefty filter capacitors on the AC side that can pac…

The fan on my quicksilver 2002 power supply is making a lot of noise ie all most dead. can it be replaced or is another ps in order? thanx

Running it through an empty dishwasher with no soap and clean water makes a fabulous job of it, as it happens, but most likely the same magic could be worked by sticking the thing …

Gotcha,thanks. Interesting discussion thanks for all the info. My main goal though is to find a motherboard other than the 575 board that I can put into the 575 chasi…

i don't have a laptop but i can tell you that if you are only going to do text editing or things like that, on my 450mhz G4 desktop OS 9 is very fast for things like that.....also …

6500 board in a 5200 or 5300 chassis / 3.3v regulator hack Click to expand... I was able to pop a 5500 board into a 6200 Click to expand... Huh. I actually thought …

I am now the owner of a 1GHz TiBook. What I'm curious about is, it has a 1GHz G4 and can boot into OS9 (pretty nifty), although I hadn't played much around in OS9 (just got it and…

I'm happy with my B&W G3 with maxed out RAM (1 GB), upgraded 1.1 GHz processor (well, it's advertised as 1 GHz but the setting goes to 11, er, I mean 1.1), and OS 9.2.2. I'…

There is an exception. The hack *MUST* be done for the 5400 board. However, the 5500 board will work *WITHOUT* the hack, but there might be issues with PCI. I'm not sure if this is…

Bunsen is correct - in order to use the 6500 board in a 5200 or 5300 chassis, you must do the 3.3v regulator hack mentioned by johnklos.

An overclocked 1.42 GHz Mirrored drive door will probably be faster than a 7447a because the Apple processor has 2 megs of L3 cache in addition to 256k of L2 cache as compared with…

Don't see why that should be a problem - The VGA output looks pretty standard, and 67HZ is about as basic and common a sync rate as you can find. But if for any reason it is an is…

Outstanding work. I just got my first 1080p display this weekend, so I might drag the 7300 bedroom system into the workroom and try your driver at 1920x1080.
