The screws for most drives I have installed are 6-32 UNC, with a maximum length of 1/4 inch.
If you are using the side mounting holes then on some drives the screw can foul the ci…

Silver Powerbook - Help! — #2
Blah.
Go to your local sign maker. Ask for some 3M ScotchCal in silver. It should have an adhesive side. Bring it home. Cut it in half. Line up one half over the outer section of …
G3 Won't Overclock — #2
Is there no setting for anything lower than 350mhz and higher than 300mhz? Try that... As for the processor itself, some processors have good yields while others do not. For exampl…
G3 Won't Overclock — #3
I don't think their are any settings for jumps inbetween 300 and 350. That and the increase in speed would be almost unnoticeable.
I was going to try playing with the bus speeds a…
OVerclocking G4 how?? — #2
G4 strip allows for speeding up the L2 cache from about 199 mhz to 265.7 mhz. A noticeable improvement. Actual speedups regarding the CPU on Sawtooth - unknown. As far as Yikes?…
PC with a G4 daughtercard — #2
Well, using the AGP slot means you would have to use a PCI graphics card. Also, it would be better if Orange Micro just came out with an Athlon card for G4s.
PC with a G4 daughtercard — #3
Orange Micro makes K6-2/600 daughtercards and sells them for $1000. What would an Athlon cost?
Plus, the G4 does not have enough puff in its power supply to feed the monstruous At…
Overclocking — #2
The only way I know of to OC your bus is to actually go in and remove resistors. This is very touchy because if you get it going too fast, your system will freeze or crash. If th…
Overclocking — #3
Beige G3 is jumpered, not using regular resistors, making it easy to OC, and almost everyone did such...on the other hand, the iMacs and the G4s are much harder to OC.
Prior to th…

This shows you what resisters need to be moved and where to put them!

iMac Gamewizard question — #2
You're either trying to use 32 bit color or too high a resolution. The voodoo2 is VERY limited in what it can do. Keep it at 640X480.... its a good resolution for such a tiny …
iMac Gamewizard question — #3
Got it to work at 640x480 now. But now the screen is stretched very strangely. How do I fix this?

ATA/66 in beige G3? — #2
What does the ROM have anything to do with having more ATA devices? The IDE controller is controlled by an entirely seperate controller...
To my understanding, IDE generally comes …
ATA/66 in beige G3? — #3
The problem is that the rev. A ROM doesn't support master/slave configurations. (I suppose I just answered my own question.)
As for my new HD, good point. I probably should have…

Where can you get ATA/66 cards for $49 anyways??
ATA/66 in beige G3? — #5
Staples has them. (You'd be amazed what you can get for a Mac, there!)
ATA/66 in beige G3? — #6
Just to clarify for some: the ROM in the Rev. A Beige G3 does not allow for master/slave configuration on the IDE Bus. Swapping it out with a Rev. B or Rev. C ROM will give you tha…
ATA/66 in beige G3? — #7
My blue/white G3 does not support ATA 66. i had to get HDToolkit to knock the drive down to 33.. not sure if this applies to beige G3's, it's just a fair warning.
kinda off the s…

ATA/66 in beige G3? — #9
If I understand correctly, IDE is controlled by the CPU, so an ATA card won't get rid of that overhead...I'm not positive on that though, since I didn't do the ATA HD interface for…

Anyway, what's this about the Fireball Plus LM only being able to come up with ?27MB/sec? It's a ATA/66 drive (or at least, it was advertised…
ATA/66 in beige G3? — #11
B&W G3 handles ATA/100 or ATA/66 drives fine using Drive Setup 1.9.2. No need to use FWB (3.02 doesn't support OS 9 and 4.0 sounds buggy). Apple ships some current G4 configura…

ATA/66 drives doesn't mean it'll transfer files at such speed, only means that it supports such interface. Currently, the fastest IDE HD avilable is the IBM Deskstar75GXP, and that…
ATA/66 in beige G3? — #13
Okay. I think I've got this straight. After all this, the bottom line seems to be that the ROM upgrade would be the way to go, since the mobo can handle more than the drive is capa…
