Thank you very much

After loading QuickTime Player 4, RealPlayer 7, and Shockwave 8, the Xclaim Video Player (XVP)will not open. I get a message saying that no ATI video hardware can be found. I have …

The only thing I can think of is to reinstall the video card's drivers.

Oops! I should have mentioned what I tried to do. First, I deleted the XVP Prefs and restarted. Second, I reinstalled *all* XVR software (which includes the drivers). Third, I deac…

I got the card back by taking the "drastic" step of removing the new software, and reinstalling QT 3. Voila! The XVP found the ATI hardware! I first removed RealPlayer, no effect. …

does anyone know if there is a definite conflict with Quicktime and acclaim VR? i've had QT 4.x since it came out, and i just installed an acclaim VR card. the apple system profile…

I've had two other people report problems on another board where I posted the same original information. It seems that it is a conflict between XVR and QT 4. I have yet to hear fro…

I saw an article and patch a while back on the Apple TIL page about ATi Xclaim VR cards and pre-G3 PCI macs. I can't remember the details but it was something about these PCI cards…

I'm adding a 30g hard drive to my G4, but it's just a bare drive and didn't come with any screws. Does anyone know what size screw I should get? Sorry for the weird question ;-) T…

Ya use Duck Tape silly city boy. yuk yuk >hiccup< Barney

I would email the company that made that there drive. And if that was a Simpon's reference, Cletus is the slack jawed yokel. Barney Gumble is just a drunk, that burps, not hiccups…

And isn't it "Duct" Tape??

The screws for most drives I have installed are 6-32 UNC, with a maximum length of 1/4 inch. If you are using the side mounting holes then on some drives the screw can foul the ci…

(Posted this in the Powerbook forum also, sorry for the redundancy) Hey all, I'm looking for some kind soul to provide me with DETAILED instructions (in english) on how to do the …

Blah. Go to your local sign maker. Ask for some 3M ScotchCal in silver. It should have an adhesive side. Bring it home. Cut it in half. Line up one half over the outer section of …

Why would u want to go outside to compute (while its raining) that makes no sense at all for you to take a computer in the rain

SHRINKWRAP IT!* Open the iBook the widest (comfortably) and wrap it with plastic foil (that one used to wrap your turkey sandwiches) several times, making sure the keyboard and sc…

thanks, everyone who replied. i dont have an ibook yet, but if this was possible, i was thinking of getting one to try this on. SHRINKWRAP IT! - i was thinking of something like t…

Shrinkwrapping an iBook would just give you an iBook full of condensation. The alchoholic iBook idea would work in theory, but it would do very nasty things to the screen. I think …

I have just reconsidered the "Alcoholic iBook" part. It would be better if your used Johnsonn's Baby Oil instead. I am going to do the experiment with a 4-function calculator.
