Somebody told me that when get up over the 400Mhz mark that you can do software DVD decoding. Question? So if I have a REV D or B iMac logicboard and then add the NewerTech iMAXp…

Use the RevB: it has a hole in the metal plate thing through which you can put the IDE cable, so just have your DVD-ROM externally. That's the easiest way. Or use the RevD (which i…

Wait.... how come you cant throw a powerbook DVD drive into the iMac drive? Wouldnt that work? And if I overclocked my rev A/D hybrid to 400 mhz, would it be able to play them? …

I don't think a VST DVD-ROM would fit. Find the manufacturer of the iMac CD-ROM drives and check if they have a similar DVD model. There's one for the iBook.

ok, here's what ive figured out so far about software dvd decoding. the term "software dvd" is meaning that the computers don't have dedicated dvd decoder chips. however, that does…

There is also the question of the bus speed: A-D are 66mhz, 2nd Gen are 100mhz...

The 466MHz G3 upgrade for iMacs brings in a $150 rebate if you mail in your old system board. What are the conditions for this rebate? Anyone has a contract close? Is someone eligi…

The original card must be in full working order and returned within 14 days. That's about it.

I know the imac NEEDs a pass through vid card in order to work, right? Right. Anyway, WHY? ANyone know? I was thinking. If I made a mezzanine to PCI connector, a voodoo3 (or…

Dude, I am in the same project you are talking about. I think YOU came up with the idea that iMac's could only accept pass-through videocards, while I always believed that pluggin…

ok. You challenged me. Last one to get it working is a rotten egg! '`'`'`'`' (me order stuff TONIGHT. HEhehe) Ca$h

Of course, if you can get it to run a second monitor, then couldn't you just attach it to the monitor cuurrently in the case (break out the soldering gun)? Dammit

The only real question I have is whether there is enough space in there for a PCI card, and where you would hang it..... Good luck, fellas! Dammit

PCI card can hang out the side for tests. Heh. Ca$h

I'm realy interested in these mezz-PCI converters. I would like to try to make one myself. Does anybody know where to get the mezanine connector in Europe? Please lets work togeth…

Cash, Are you NOT going to send pictures?

Um, I've been asking round some computer stores about PCI to Mezz connectors but they just stare at me blankly. I need to go to some specialised place obviously, any help??

You gotta either: A. Get the parts and make it yourself B. Get the parts and have it made at a shop

And all I want to know is if anyone has ever succeeded in soldering a mezzanine socket to a rev D motherboard. Anyone?
