Re: Using AGP 8x card in AGP 4x ADC compatible slot
in my experience with flashing PC cards in a PC, i use an old PCI video card so that i can see what is happening to the AGP card throughout the flashing process. there is a command in the NVFlash.exe tool that will let you know what slot each card is in, so that when you issue the command to copy the new rom to the agp card, you select the right card. the strangedogs forum is long gone, i believe. themacelite forum is all that's left, but it is a good place to find instructions, links to the flashing tool, and a good database of rim's.

Google “G4 ATX” and you can find lots of info for either modding yourself, or buying something. Thanks for that note ... I'll be looking into that. ... I've acquired several G4s with blown power supplies including a MDD that I'd like to start using, (seems to me the P.S. is the most common failure on G4s - just like the G5s always have coolant system troubles.) Back to original topic, I've tried all the *easy* possibilities, and am back to what you suggested about the card firmware. I have downloaded the software and instructions, but unfortunately no os-x version available so I'll have to wait until I can find a PC with an AGP slot (I really never thought I'd need a PC again ! ).

Unable to enter password in Terminal
I tried to perform the terminal shutdown listed earlier, but after terminal asked me for my password, the cursor didn't move. I couldn't enter my password. I don't know what I may be doing wrong, or what is wrong with my settings, prefs have not been altered from default. Perplexing. Does anyone have any suggestions that might help?

Re: Unable to enter password in Terminal
It does not show the password, but it is typing.
