To SpiffyGuyC: Your claim that Apple has found a way to make the translucent plastic work as shielding is wrong. In the iBook there are sheets of metal in the casing to work as sh…

I want to install a CPU fan for my Yosemite G3, i know what most of you are thinking, you don't need a fan for the Yosemite series, it alreayd runs quite cool enough, but i'm going…

Assuming you have a PCI slot free, just drop in a fan card (PCI slot fan) or a slot covering fan (that mounts on the slots cover plate) that will cool the whole motherboard. They'r…

Anybody ever get a G4 (small one) keyboard lit up using cable lights/ LEDs, or anything? I use a keyboard drawer. At night, it is hard to see the keys, because the desk blocks la…

I started a thread about just that subject a while back. it's still in this form, and I believe that somebody did do it, although I'm too lazy to go and check. -Ruddigger

I Have recently set up an airport at my ISP. My work is about 250ft away from the station where my G4 with airport card is located. What I was wondering, Does anybody know of a hav…

Could this really be crash proof? I am using Powerlogix cache utility (I tried xlr8's because I heard it was more stable, but it kept freezing on startup at 2:1). I first set it …

Its fine. I have a 333, and I've been running 3:2 since about february. Doesnt crash, except when using AOL or IE5.

Your iMac will be fine. I believe holding space bar at startup voids the cache profiler prefs, and resets it to normal... Cipher13 [This message has been edited by Cipher13 (edit…

It'll either work or it wont. It worked on both chips I've had, and no problems. I cranked it up to 1:1 and it locked. Then just restart with extensions off (hold down shift) …

I am running my rev. D at 2:1 right now and it almost runs smoother at 3:2. Beats me how, but I had very few problems at 3:2. Just make sure to keep an eye on your CPU temp. Min…

OK... I've overclocked my bus speed to 266mhz but what else can I overclock? Time to have some fun here! ------------------ DeathToWindows

Uhm... how the hell do you overclock bus speed? Anything over 100MHz most likely wouldn't be stable, if you can even do it... Were you talking about the L2 cache? Because that make…

You were right... Backside cashe @ 200mhz stable as a rock (3+ months) ------------------ DeathToWindows

Go to http://www.bekkoame.ne.jp/~t-imai/imacde1.html for instructions on OCing the processor.
