Well if it bongs, the AV/PERCH card is installed correctly. The AV card is the one that has the sound in/out ports on it, that is installed in a black slot (PERCH) next to the PCI …

Lets see im getting back to working on it and yes it does bong. I have no idea what the AV card is or what a PERCH socket is guys

The very first beige G3 I had would not lite up the screen(VGA) with out the 4mb stick under OS9. Honest...I had to buy one to get the machine to work.

Doesn't matter - there's 2MB onboard even without the optional 4MB DIMM

Did someone take out the memory simm,its pugs in right in front of the ZIF.

Make sure the AV card is seated properly in the PERCH socket. It often seems like it is when it isn't. Did you get a startup chime?

Some of those adapters have a bucket load of slider pins and the correct settings can be a real pain to get right, aer you sure it's configured correctly. Serously, I'd look into …

Well, if you're trying to use an old RGB monitor like the one for the IIGS it won't work, it has less pins even though the connector is the same. I'm not sure why a VGA monitor won…

How do I do it? I had a radeon in it and now I put it in my g4 mac pro. Now I want to put OS 9 on this beige g3 but am unsure how to get the on board video to enable itself.....I h…

I stand corrected. WPC54GS, not WRT54GS. My bad. I guess I was wrong about assuming OS9 compatiblity. Good luck!

Linksys WRT54GS / WRT54G v1 / use the Broadcom chipset / It ought to be recognized reasonably well in OS9 because it will be mistaken as an Airport card. Click to expand... The…

That Linksys device is a router, not a card. Also, the original Airport cards used chips made by Lucent/Agere, not Broadcom. They are known in the wireless biz as the Hermes chips…

WRT??? If I'm not mistaken, that is a router and not a card (my router is a WRT54G v2)

The best one that I know will work is the Linksys WRT54GS (the S is for Speedboost). Also the Linksys WRT54G v1 will work. I do not know about version two. Both of these Wireless G…

If you're happy to settle for 802.11b, rather than 802.11g, an ORiNOCO card will work well on there, and even allow you to use the standard Apple AirPort software.

I think the Sonnet Aria Extreme card can do both if I'm not mistaken. It's kinda hard to find, but most used mac computer sites have it http://www.powermax.com/parts/show/c39916

Im looking for a Wireless card for my powerbook. Im going to do a dual partition for OS 9.2.2 and OS X. What wiress card can be used with OS 9 and OS X?

Actually, the hard drive has to be formatted with "Mac OS 9 drivers" installed for the OS X disk to see it. You might be able to partition the drive with the OS 9 drivers on the on…

An OS 9 Install disc won't even 'see' the drive if OS 9 drivers were not installed when the drive was formatted, and before OS X was installed. You can install OS 9 into the same …

it wont boot anything but osx.. its irritating

Ahem, iMac, not iMAC. As long as you find an OS 9.1 disk, you should be fine.

Well.. I've got an iMAC G3 600mhz with 1 gig og ram currently running 10.4. I was wondering if it's difficult to install Os 9 on this thing, since I miss th OS.. please help. It's…

I need a right arrow key for a IIe. Anyone have one or know here U=I can find one?

Does anyone know if the Wired Inc. product in this article actually exists? I've never heard of it before.

If it was always free, if you're planning to run OS X, I still have iMovie 2.1.1.
