Re: Apple G4 CPU upgrade options
My 400 MHZ G4 scored a 7 on the Uni test so it should take DP. So what is the max processor I can just drop in. Anything will work as long as it's a Sawtooth or Gig series? MDD?

The only straight drop ins from Apple that will increase your speed are a single 500 from a Sawtooth or duals from the Gig ethernet series. In order to use them the duals, you need to have a Uni-N revision of 7 or higher. Here is a link to a download to test. http://newertech.com/tech_support/uni-north.php As to non Apple drop ins, most G4 accelerators will work. Most are either autosensing or have dip switches to work with the motherboard speed. The pins are the same from Sawtooth through Quicksilver, and most manufacturers built their upgrades to fit all of those. You can probably pick up a 900-1Ghz processor on the swap list for around $100.

Re: Apple G4 CPU upgrade options
Anything that is not from a Sawtooth or Gigabit Ethernet will not work without modification, this includes CPUs from the Digital Audio series, QuickSilvers and MDDs. Chris P.S. Good luck if you decide to go for Dual processors, let us know how it goes! On 23 Aug 2009, at 19:32, Jasiu wrote: My 400 MHZ G4 scored a 7 on the Uni test so it should take DP.

Flash woe(s)
Hi All, Possibly OT - in which case I humbly apologise to the Nannies, but I use CS3, and have a .swf (and its .fla) which I am trying to convert to .flv. Flash CS3 doesn't seem to have an export to .flv - or if it does, I can't find it in the program or in Flash Help. Any Flash-experienced guru any ideas?

Re: Apple G4 CPU upgrade options
I have a G4 Dual 500 1.5Ghz Ram and complete mother board: the power supply died about 10 day ago; let me know if you are interested ?

Re: Flash woe(s)
I don't believe you can do it in Flash. I believe the Flash Converter software included with CS3 may be able to do it. Otherwise it is a cumbersome process. Save to SWF in Flash (or AVI or MPG) import into (I still use Visual Hub, now discontinued) and export as FLV. mark ray bluellama...@embarqmail.com On Aug 23, 2009, at 6:04 PM, Ted Treen wrote: Hi All, Possibly OT - in which case I humbly apologise to the Nannies, but I use CS3, and have a .swf (and its .fla) which I am trying to convert to .flv.

HD Question
Ok, I want to add another (3rd) HD to my new QS I added one and it works fine. I stuck one on the same cable (bus) as the Super Drive and I can see it when i is set as Slave using one jumper (with System Profiler) but I cannot format it using Disk Utility as Disk Utility doesn't see it. I tried the Special Setting for Slave (using 2 jumpers) but this doesn't work either. So, what do I need to do here? Also, I plugged a USB Flash drive into the ports on my KB but it says there is not enough power available. Are these ports usable for Flash Drives? -- Steve Conrad Henrietta, MO 64036 The time has come for mankind to grow up and leave its cradle behind; to go forth and claim our place in outer space. - Capt.
