Does anyone know if the Apple Hardware CDs are specific to the machine it was purchased with? The reason I asked is I tried running the Apple Hardware Test CD from my Quicksilver 2002 on a 733mhz Digital Audio G4 and it will not run.
AHT 1.2.4, which I got for my Quicksilver 2002 Dual 1GHz, just ran successfully on my Digital Audio Dual 533.
I did not remove my PCI cards on either machine as Apple suggests, or disconnect the Ethernet. Luck maybe? I had the Geforce4 MX native video card in each machine, if I remember correctly about the QS 2002. It is currently in my DA Dual 533.
After googling, I found: http://www.applelinks.com/index.php/more/apple_posts_hardware_test_images_and_information_for_free_download/ which suggests AHT 1.2.6. It links you to Apple's page for this version and others. http://www.info.apple.com/support/aht.html Good Luck. -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
