Re: Another RAM Question
Howdy, I went through some SDRAM DIMMs I had as spares and found some similar chips. They are not exactly the same, but I can almost certainly give you part of the information about your memory. The -8 is on PC100 memory modules and that makes sense for two reasons. 80 nanoseconds plus a little overhead would be right for a 100 MHz bus. And P2 chips only supported 2 bus speeds. Well, other bus speeds were supported, but depending on the specific chips, there were two maximum speeds. They were either 66 MHz or 100 MHz. My similar modules were made by Infineon in Germany. My similar modules are 64 meg DIMMs and have 8 chips. So, I would guess yours are 32 meg modules. The largest DIMMs I have seen P2 chipsets support were 128 MEG. So, I agree with the other assessment. Throw this away and get 256 meg PC133 modules for your G4.

Re: I was just given a G4 733 tower
Thanks for the info . so do you think i should download the patch and try the drive again?

However, I note that on the side of the package that it reads Mac Radeon 9200 PCI 128MB VVOD RH NA NTSC 100-436014).

So, to my question - will this care work here in Europe with my BW G3 original (European) monitor? I do not intend to hook it up to any regular TV. Alternatively, can one choose a PAL option with this card?

Re: Mac Radeon 9200 PCI NTSC
I suspect the NTSC part of the card's designation simply applies to a Super Video out connector. This would be for hooking your computer up to a regular, non-HD TV. I don't think you'll have a problem as long as don't try hooking up the S-Video port on the card. If you do, you'll have to use an NTSC TV as opposed to a European model. If that card doesn't have an S-Video out, I'm not sure why it's designated as NTSC.

I guess that the NA means North America and the NTSC is the North American TV standard (as opposed to the PAL standard elsewhere). So, to my question - will this care work here in Europe with my BW G3 original (European) monitor? I do not intend to hook it up to any regular TV. Alternatively, can one choose a PAL option with this card?

This is an excerpt from your ASD manual: The screen flickers. • The flickering could be caused by interference from a nearby power line, a fluorescent light, or an electrical device—for example, a radio, a microwave oven, or other computer equipment. Try relocating nearby electrical devices, or moving your computer and monitor. • If you have more than one monitor attached to your computer, the monitors might be interfering with one another. Move the monitors farther apart or set the monitors at an angle, so their screens are close and their back panels are farther apart. If you still see flickering after moving the monitors more than 16 inches apart, contact an Apple-authorized dealer or service provider. • Your monitor may flicker if you have chosen a resolution with a refresh rate of 60 hertz or below.

With the introduction of 10.4 Apple disabled file transfer and sharing over the older version of afp that used AppleTalk either over twisted pair localtalk or AppleTalk over ethernet. It made it impossible to connect OS neXt to systems earlier than OS 8.5 without purchasing proprietary software from OpenDoor. In OS 8 or 9 and possibly OS 10.2 you have to enable AppleTalk over IP, internet protocol. It's a deliberate selection in a preference somewhere that has to be set and may not be the default in OS 10.2. Personally I have discovered the scp capability of Openssh which is delivered with essentially all versions of OS neXt. It works with a whole lot of boxes. But you do have to use a command line or a hand-written AppleScript. If scp doesn't work, think OS 7, curl will but it's not very secure. -- -- From the U S of A, the only socialist country that refuses to admit it. -- --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ 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.

The system had Final Cut 2 and a ton of other video software I don't think would run under OS X. this system came with two keyboards one the stander one and one button clear mouse the other one set up for the video editing software. No flat screen (sigh) the Monitor is a big gread 19' monster I would have loved years again but now see it as some thing just too big and heavy the system was bought from BH Video about 5 years or so back and was use d like one to two time and then sat gathering dust..I blown tons off the system inside still clean very little dust The paid over $7 for the whole system(the shipping had to be a big part as it came to Calif from NY) I was give it to use to make videos and need that DVD drive back up and running the one tha came in it was super drive and a Pioneer model but I have had the time to get the model number. It worked once to burn the said and they never burnt another CD so no one knows when it died or why ..it power up but can not read ANY media. it ejects any CD/DVD put in it so I think read error on the head (early DVD drive wre very sensitive to movement) I don't know this model very well as it when into production after I left Apple here in Elk Grove but i know it was being back boxed her with the Cube( than i did get to play with in Black box it ws cool unit) I worked Night shift and got to see and lot and work on lot that is now some great stories.. the candy iMacs alone are a nightmare of stories.(something for later) the 733mhz CPU has the fan and i note clear plastic cover to better cool the CPU The 2 video cards are a stander 32 meg Nvida card and the second is a 32 Meg Matrox video card this is a stander card used by video editors and systems both PC and Mac. I like to replace on of both with cards that have more power and or memory .

No, just for 10.1/10.2 (obsolete, and no longer available for download), 10.3 (still available but not updated) and 10.4 (still available and possibly updated).

I like to replace both or one with larger drives so i like Western Digital drives but not sure if current IDE will run on this bus on the motherboard . Both the DA and QS are amenable to the LBA48 property update method, using TERMINAL, and these updates (one for the HD bus, another one for the optical bus) are the same for both. As long as you don't do a reset-nvram your DA or WS will have large drive support. I have had such support on my lone remaining DA for more than six months and it never goes away as I have not done a reset-nvram in all that time. 750 GB drives are available in PATA, and you can install three such drives in either a DA or a QS.
