I see that the Gigabit and Digital Audio power pinouts are exactly the same. I succeeded in booting my DA from an ATX PS with an extension cable made for P4 logic boards. It had …

Oh weird. Those must have been like, the super gimped versions. Eww.

I got it, and its definatly a sawtooth(has AGP). Some of the sawtooths were 350 according to LEM

Cheers, i'll keep those in mind for tomorrow. I have to stop by my local computer store anyway so i'll see what they have in stock first. CPU extension cable won't work since the 4…

CPU extension cable: http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.5199 If you combine these two, you can get a 20 pin to 20 pin motherboard connector: http://www.dealextreme.com/deta…

I recently improvised a fix on a Pismo hinge (it was snapped off) by using a good 12" Wallstreet hinge from a broken LCD assembly. It required disassembly of both LCDs to extract t…

Wow. I hate it when the thread I'm asking a question on is in the top 5 google results when I search for info on my question.

Hmm well. If the memory used by the processes is not what's draining your memory usage... you know that almost all free memory is normally eaten up by UNIX systems for the file sys…

It's a Yikes, in the UK that would go for the equivalent of about $60 so it seems a good deal.

a 350 would be a Yikes! I think the lowest Sawtooth was a 400. Still a pretty good deal, they can be reliable machines, and great for OS9.

Is 25 bucks for a 350/10gb/DVD reader/ZIP/64mb ram graphite a good deal?I have plenty of ram to upgrade it with, along with a HD. Click to expand... Is that a sawtooth or just …

That's the thing, the process with the biggest RAM usage is like 40-60mb (Kernel), with a bunch of smaller ones below it. It's like lots of tiny processes are starting but I can't…

[] ]'> Look which process exactly eats that RAM.

Repair Permissions?

Yeah it can with new hinges from places like powerbookguy.com. Good luck on the Pismo.

This Q is quite FA around here. Perhaps we need a FAQ page. My short answer is go to xlr8yourmac.com under articles->systems->g4 from their front page navigation ba…

The Quicksilver uses a 133mhz bus, the Sawtooth only uses a 100mhz one. The Quicksilver 800 CPU would have a multiplier of 6, so it would only run at 600mhz on a Sawtooth, if it wo…

I did the hack and now OS X KP's at startup.

I pulled a PCI radeon 7000 32mb out of a beige g3 to put in my sawtooth, it still would be better than the stock rage 128 pro AGP right?

I have the same question and for the same reasons, but mine is 400mhz.

Thanks for the link -- I guess what I'm really asking is: Can I put this http://cgi.ebay.com/Apple-PowerMac-G4-Quicksilver-800-MHz-processor-HS_W0QQitemZ190244586323QQcmdZViewIte…

the main problem you have with a sawtooth and dual CPUs is that most of the boards don't support Dual CPUs. If you have a revision newer than Rev 3, you can do it. I am hoping th…

As I recall it only applies if you do not reinstall your OS after the CPU swap. Apparently the L3 is recognized and works just fine if you reinstall.

Green/White powder around, probably leakage from the original PRAM battery. Weird... I was bored and keep on pressing the PMU Reset button but it still ignoring me, so I closed th…
