Wow, you're having the exact opposite issue from what I'm having; bloody QuickTime, make up your mind what you want to break

What's on the battery "board"?

I'm thinking the problem is Quicktime plugin being stupid under Safari... My Pismo 10.3.9 400 MHz PowerPC G3 256 MB SDRAM Trying to play your movie on your problem, by viewing…

Whee, I made a video of exactly what's going on here: http://augusf.dyndns.org/public/qtissue.mov If anybody has any ideas, I'd be happy to hear them; it's really rather annoying…

Hacking lithium-ion battery packs is not for the uninitiated. Leave it alone.

Hey, I have a Pismo battery that is shot, but since I have a couple spare clamshell batteries around i thought "their connections are the same, so lets try and do a swap. The fir…

I moved the Rage128 to the slot nearest the IDE connectors and so far it works. On to locating an ATX case to hack up and locating a hard disk larger than 3.2GB...

I don't think the Mach 64 can handle a 66 mhz slot as it's a pretty ancient card. Could the 128 be dead?

Thanks for the reply, sircabulon. I think you're right - the card is toast. I tried it again in the 66MHz slot, and this time I got some video, but it was the same corrupted video…

Excellent! I will only be using low density RAM - Thanks!

The 66 mhz slot should not effect it. If the card can fit into the slot normally, then it is rated for that speed. Are there any broken or loose solders on the VGA connector? I …

(1) Beige G3, ATI Rage 128 PCI video card, 17" Apple blue and white CRT monitor: works great. (2) Power Mac G4 "Yikes," with either of two similar ATI Rage 128 PCI video cards, an…

yes it cantake non low profile sticks its the only Beige G3 that can cause there is allot of room above the ram. i just hope you dont mean high density and low density ram, cause t…

Can the G3 AIO take non low-profile DIMMS?

Without major hacking at the cables (if its even possible), its impossible - the cables are completely different.

I tried it in the slot next to the shortest one. After moving it to the slot nearest the IDE ports the video appears OK on the Mach64 PCI card. The Rage128 card is still not work…

Have you tried the video card in the slower 33 mhz PCI slot instead of the 66 mhz one? My mach 64 wouldn't play nice in the faster slot but was ok in the slower.

Thanks John, VLC plays 'em fine Just wish it wasn't such a slouch in loading time :

They are subjectively (I didn't measure, just put the books next to each other) the same width, and without the function keys, approximately the same height. Anyone have a clue on…

The first time the Mach64 video card was used the picture was fine. Now it is garbled. The Rage128 card still shows no video. I did find a Radeon 7000 32MB card that should be fl…

Answer: replace the video card with a Mach64 one.

Shortly after buying my Blue/White G3 the motherboard was replaced with a Revision 2 motherboard. After disappointing results with my Beige G3, I thought I would try to get the or…

OK MadMax, THANK YOU! I did what you said and the download estimate dropped to 15 minutes and with 10 minutes to go, it looks like I am into speedy downloads. This is on the 600 …

OK, I'll give your instructions a try. I just tried to download a file from apple.com 82MB and I stopped it when the estimated time hit over 2 hours. ACTUALLY, for this download,…
