Re: Will PowerPC be forever obsolete?
Whether a computer is obselete really depends on what you want to do with the computer. I mean the space shuttle runs of a i386. I use mine primarily as my digital darkroom for photography and it works perfectly for what I use it for. Furthermore various open source software will likely extend their lifespan even further. I have also noticed Apple users tend to be in my experience people more concerned with whether there computer gets the job done instead of just having the newest hardware for the sake of bragging rights.

Re: Will PowerPC be forever obsolete?
4 1GB So-dimms LOW PROFILE from a dell poweredge 2500 server. They must be low profile or they won't work. Be prepared to re-install the OS. Insert the RAM, start up and press and hold COMMAND+OPTION+P+R. There was a combined OF command, but i forgot what it was. It was after a while of learning commands on OF. Also, my version of firmware is from a Power Mac G5 early 2003. Since the G4 and G5 are similar, the firmware works too. The reason why the machine cannot detect the 4GB of RAM is because of the firmware. Apple didn't really think that 4Gb of RAM would be needed back then, so it limited the amount of RAM to 2GB. I downloaded the PM G5 early 2003 firmware update, tricked the installer into thinking i had a G5 processor, restarted, pressed and held COMMAND+OPTION+P+R, shut down, inserted the 4GB of RAM, and it worked after a Leopard re-install. Since the firmware is for a G5, the system thinks it's a G5, when in reality it's a G4 (don't worry, it'll show up as a G4 on the about this mac window! =) ) since the firmware is designed for a G5 that is able to handle 8GB of RAM, (Don't try 8Gb, it will be an epic fail) It can see the 4GB of RAM and is able to use it. The open firmware command was an alternative i made just in case i forgot, but the way i explained it here works too. Btw, be prepared for troubleshooting. This took me 47 days to get to work. this can also be done through micro-soldering a G5 OF chip onto a sawtooth, but I don't want to take my chances and ruin my companion that's been happy with me for 11 years. -- Sent from my Power mac G4 Sawtooth. -- 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.

If one had to provide a reason why it works on one Mac and not on another Mac of the same model, It seems more likely that it is not the difference between or among similar models Macs but the different applications used by the persons attempting to implement the changes.

Well, the commonalities would include Safari.app, inputmanagers, plug-ins, cookies, and everything in ~/Library/Safari. Remember - WebKit.app is just a script that simply tweaks a shell variable to make Safari.app use the frameworks within instead of the ones in /Library.

The progress bar does its thing and finishes, the Activity windows shows 'tis done, but the window contents are blank. Firefox loads the same page with no problemo. So I did a bit of a wipe...

G5's are really finicky about the seating of the RAM, and you may have to reseat the stick many times before they recognize correctly. You might try the 1GB stick in the slots the 512MB are in now. Remember, the RAM is matched pairs and they need to be in the correct matching slots. Since yours only has 4 slots, this shouldn't be an issue, but on 8 slot G5's you need to pay close attention. If the two 1GB sticks aren't exactly identical this could also be a problem, they normally need to be a matched pair. -- 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.

Your description sounds like a classic bad RAM issue. When you say won't turn on do you mean won't boot (current is noticeable, since you have a red light), or do you mean absolutely nothing? I suspect the former. Here are some quoted symptoms from Apple re: you're issue: No power (LED on/off, no fans, no boot tone, no video) 1. Check power supply cables 2. Check logic board power rails 3. Check processor connector 4. Check logic board tape for dual config 5. Replace power supply 6. Replace processor 7. Replace logic board No boot (LED on/off, fans spin, no boot tone, no video) 1. Replace memory 2. Replace logic board Memory (blinking LED, fans spin, no boot tone, no video) 1. Check memory config and replace DIMMs 2. Replace logic board No boot tone (LED on, fans spin, no boot tone, video) or No video (LED on, fans spin, boot tone, no video) 1. Reseat video card 2. Replace video card 3. Replace front panel board cable 4. Replace speaker 5. Replace front panel board 6. Replace logic board The second entry is, I think, your concern, with replace memory as #1 fix.
