Interestingly it boots with extensions off but when they are on it freezes either before the finder loads or right after the icons show up. I tried flipping them around and the dau…

Are they both the same speed? Some modules aren't backwards compatible (speed wise) so could be conflicting Just a thought

I can't see how i would have a bad ram stick, if i can use the lombard with either on in without any problems. Its just when they are together that i can't boot.

You have a bad ram stick.

I got my lombard from ebay today, 333 mhz, 64 mb ram, 9.2.2 This runs os 9 great and thats where its going to stay i think. WamCom is a nice browser too. I have been trying to add …

I replaced the fuse in the one with the grey screen/no boot. ... It's booting Mac OS 9.1!! I'm excited. The soldering job isn't the best, but it works for now.

from what I heard, those things caused a LOT of data corruption, mainly as the North-Bridge of the G3 was specifically made to only support 1 Processor per north-bridge from my und…

I've got 8.6 running on my 400 MHZ sawtooth. In college, I found a G3 Powerbook restore cd. I mounted the ASR image and copied the System Folder to an empty volume on my sawtooth. …

In the last week the rubber skin on my graphite clamshell has started peeling away from the bottom part of the case, where I tend to rest my palms. It's only a 2 inch section along…

I think Steve Jobs is going to have a fit when he hears about this. Not only are G4 machines slower than 867mhz running Leopard in defiance of his edict, now the door has been open…

One of mine did the deathbead GLOD thing, where it would work sometimes and then degrade, before finally not cooperating at all. A new power board cured that problem. I figured tha…

I remember that...brings back memories from Grade 9. (when the G4 first came out, and the US Govt prevented them from exporting it)

Unfortunately, I don't have any spare I/O boards (I presume you mean the main I/O daughter card - not a parallel card for the expansion slots). The video out problem might just be…

Yikes. Power Mac G4 - the first personal computer classified as munitions and under export restriction because of its power. Click to expand...

I'm using Leopard on my dad's brand new iMac right now, and I honestly cannot see myself installing it on any of my computers, ever. Especially not one that could run OS9 as nicely…

That is simply amazing. I am glad I just got a G4 ZIF for one of my G3 Powermacs. Installing Leopard will be added to my 'to do' list.
