It's not looking good, she's dead as a door nail now. I've swapped the batteries, put in PCI video card, disconnected every IDE cable, started swapping ram chips. I don't what's ne…

My gigabit does this. Make sure your video card is fully seated, it sometimes comes loosened on one end or the other when you open the case a few times.

I'm fixing a G4 MDD Powermac and it has this annoying problem. This computer will chime on startup and will make some hard drive noises it will not display any video on the DVI or …

If i had a decent amount of G4's of the same speed, I would actually buy Pooch and run my very own parallel computing center.

You know, over the last couple of months I've been watching the price of G4 Macs come way down Picking up a dual G4 at 800MHz or faster is now actually affordable. The real que…

You know, over the last couple of months I've been watching the price of G4 Macs come way down. It's been really very impressive to see an MDD that a few months ago would have sol…

The GeForce4 MX should support dual displays even with only 32MB of RAM. That should work for you, though you'll likely need an ADC->DVI adapter as well... Peace, Drew

Did you get the GeForce 2? If you did then most likely, you did shoot yourself in the foot. :-/ Click to expand... The auction said: "This is a factory installed Nvidia GeFor…

Did you get the GeForce 2? If you did then most likely, you did shoot yourself in the foot. :-/

Thanks for all your suggestions. Now having tracked down the problem to the keyboard, I pulled it off and blew it out. The key is functioning correctly (testing with a multimeter)…

Sometimes, if it's just a dirty switch you can fix it by "exercising" it.

Key switch is not so good on the control key, I think. I had the same problem with a //e I received a few weeks ago. The 'W' key would not work for almost 2 weeks, then suddenly it…

I didn't Sorry. His post mixed up my head.

I just did a 720p movie trailer from apple and my Dual G4 with 1GB of ram is chugging, it's dropping frames all over the place. Click to expand... Do you understand the differe…
