Radeon 9600 in MDD FW800 G4? — #2

I have that same card (or similiar anyhow) and iirc you need to tape pins, but that is only if it would work the sapphire card I had had the cheaper bios chips or w/e and could not…

OK, I put the 2.3GHZ on ebay... I don't have enough space on the desk, I put it up for 550.00 and within 2 hrs it was gone.. buy it now. I had immediate payment option, so I looked…

Don't go tweaking the voltage pot just yet -- you could cause a complete meltdown. The problem you're seeing is not uncommon, and is most often caused by tarnished power connectio…

After several tries, I finally (accidentally?) got that silly ad-laden download site to deliver that AIFF file to my hard drive! All I can say is that the sound file you made is t…

I just remembered that a while ago, the SE would not turn on at all every once in a while.

It was the pt-puhtt noise I was asking about. Is that the static noise? In the background the fans were spinning down, which I knew. The pt-puhtt noise happens when the power is s…

I always hear this pippling noise whenever I start the SE up or shut it down. Is that normal? Click to expand... Is that in addition to the standard beep, or instead of? It sou…

I think you got a good deal on the machine. I'd pay $225 for the machine. Although I would more than likely offer only $200 as I wouldn't need the AP card since the only things in…

$225 is the cheapest I've heard of for a G5. Around here they go for $650 up (some guy was asking $2000 on Craigslist - good luck!). Except for the water coolers, they are built li…
