AV panel = Wings Card....possible Sonnet upgrade....DVD drive.....looking good so far! :O
Three questions about the DVD drive:
- Is it stock or aftermarket?
- Does the machine…
They probably need the motherboards recapped and that costs $100+ to send out and have it done (each plus shipping). Anybody who buys broken equipment that cannot troubleshoot or f…
these are powermacs, not imacs, i didn't think they get bad caps

They also get logic board issues, some are bad capacitors. I also seen some stock video card…

It's because it's an original 128k, complete with all original packaging

Actually it's not original, nor complete. It will have a 512K board in it, or at lea…
Yes, but this auction does list a Hyperdrive Mac. It is interesting though how 7 people have bid up the price to nearly $1300 in spite of the fact the seller says the Hyperdrive i…

Do they actually have any prices listed? I did not get to browse at all because the shit-scripts on that site killed firefox pretty quickly.

My Dual 2.7 G5 is more than powerful enough for what I do - lots of CAD, some 3d rendering and light photo and SD video editing. So far, I see no reason to upgrade to an intel sys…
Any problems they have won't be linked to leaking cooling devices. All 2.0GHz models are strictly air cooled. For $100 it sounds like a winner. If they showed up here, I'd go fo…
depends, you could solder a new one on, but if the original issue that fried it in the first place is still there, you will have just burned out another

Definitely looks like bad / dirty VRAM to me. Try removing the VRAM SIMM and cleaning the gold fingers with a clean pencil eraser. This problem may be affected by bumping the mac…
