Did you try just a K6-2 fan, or a K6-2 heat sink and fan? It would take some sheet or metal bar work, but you might consider trying to mount some of the modern heat pipe equipped …

Hi, As I told in other posts, I use a B&W G3 with G4 zif from Yikes! 400 at 450mhz (trying 500mhz still). I followed the voltage tweaking guide to achieve 500mhz by settin…

Radeon 9800 Pro Mac Edition, if you don't want to fool around with flashing PC cards is the best.

If you can flash a 5200, not bad price for some that can handle modern gaming (Not with full settings, but I play Orange Box with it).

if you really want the best video card go for a flashed Radeon 9800 with 256MB VRAM or a flashed GeForce 7 series card. the 9800 gets pretty hot compared to the geforce cards. so …

... But, what all are you wanting to do with it? If you just want it for "2d" stuff, then your 7500 is perfectly acceptable. If you want it for Core Image stuff, then a Radeon 96…

An ATI Radeon 9800 is, I believe, the best video card that was released for that Mac. There was an X800 released, but it requires the 8X AGP slot of the Power Mac G5, so won't wor…

i want the best video card for a quicksilver g4 dual 1 g machine. well less than 150 $ us. i have a 7500 apg currently per alk [8D] which works great i would like to dual boot…

ive got one sitting around in my garage collecting dust

Thats a good machine you got there, hold onto it.

The 12 display is a DS 800x600 (or whatever the mac resolution is). Are the hinges loose? Major issues with wallstreets is the 2 cables that are along the hing to the LCD get cut …

There are two connectors to check on those. One is on the mid-left of the machine, under the keyboard, to the right of the PCMCIA card cage and cooling fan. It's covered mostly by…

I just bought a Powerbook G3 Wallstreet. It was sold as working from ebay. I open it up and turn it on and BOOM! Lines allover the LCD. The LCD is fine, but it looks like some kind…

What he said. Sadly, CRTs are pretty much "out of fashion now", including most of the iMac G3 models, meaning that they sell for quite little and even go for free. Your iMac is wor…

The 233 bondi blues aren't worth much, maybe $20. The G4 upgrade is worth more, probably at least $100 because of the rarity.

So a few months ago I bought an iMac from the thrift store to play around with, mostly because I have never used one before. I really bought it to teach myself how to repair and u…

Just go on ebay and buy one. They aren't expensive especially if you can find an install disc that was made for your model machine rather than a full retail disc. LEM also has a pa…

porter Of course you can, but I deliberately wrote 'working computer', which is entirely different from a functional computer without an OS. dogbiscuit Make sure also that you d…

.... and it is an offence to do so when the Mac was originally sold with one. Click to expand... I can sell a car without it being roadworthy as long as the buyer is aware.

Oh I see, I'm really with it, just didn't know it...

You are already running the latest version of 10.4! Apple's OS numbering goes 10.4.8, 10.4.9, 10.4.10, 10.4.11, etc. Generally, later version provide bug fixes and general improve…

Yeah, I think that makes sense. This is off the subject a little but, I'm using 10.4.11 now, can anyone give me any reason to upgrade to 10.4.3 or 10.4.4...4...5...6...etc (or to …

If the machine is for personal use then I would say that you're pretty much in the clear. Things like this are only really dodgy if you are using an install of an OS or other softw…

I think it's too slow for Leopard, it's a dual 450 Mhz PPC... Click to expand... I got that machine running leopard right now. Aside from a crappy video card and slow hard driv…

Yeah well, I do want to be all legal like so I'll look for an original 10.4 retail install package off eBay. I had also heard that some hacks were required for Leopard to run as w…
