It all happened like this. I was messing around with my computer one day, and I did some research on google. I combined some command lines, and i removed a file in the OF that basically removed RAM limits, removed the CPU bus speed limits, but it warned me that i could possibly damage my machine to the point of no repair. I disregarded it, and put 4 1GB Modules from Dell poweredge 2500 servers. Earlier it worked without doing any mods to my system, because they were LOW PROFILE So-dimms. This works on a sawtooth, but I am not sure about other G4's. The problem is, is that I forgot the command in the OF, and number 2, There is a 50/50 chance it might work with 4 1Gb low profile modules, but I ran into an unhappy Leopard the first time I booted up. Starting up with 4GB of RAM on a sawtooth only while pressing and holding COMMAND+OPTION+P+R and it should clear out any problems. Like I said, it's only proven to work on a sawtooth, and since certain versions of a Quicksilver have only 3 slots, you can only get 3GB Max. The low profile dimms work, but after several restarts I had to enter some combined commands. I forgot the combined commands, so about that...
