Just as a hint for the next time. You can run a G4 case with the cover open. In fact, with a little care, you can open or close it while running. I wouldn't run it for long with the cover open, you don't get proper air flow but it's okay for testing. It makes testing memory and such a lot simpler. Also another trick I've used, if you just want to see if the memory works at all, especially several sticks, disconnect the harddrive then just boot. If it boots to the flashing question mark okay then the memory is okay. Either way you can just power it off at this point. It saves time as you don't have to wait for boot up and shut down. -- Clark Martin Redwood City, CA, USA Macintosh / Internet Consulting "I'm a designated driver on the Information Super Highway" --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed Low End Mac's G3-5 List, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
