Re: I was just given a G4 733 tower

2008-09-27 Thread CCorsair

Thanks this all good info.. question.. If i move to 10.5 will i be
able to run the older video editing software?
the person tha gave me the system said he want to make sure we keep
that part going.(even in the old OS as is it is much easier to edit a
video on the mac then a PC) I know my PC can render HD but the Mac
isn't going to handle that as is.

If current burning drive will work I look into that this as i need to
burn some videos off soon.
will look for Toast as well.but again under 9.2.2  I know there are
limits as I had some bring me a early G4 system they had installed OS
10.3 or 10.4 the lost all classic ability for running older programs
for the system and when I tried to do the online updates for that OS
it crashed but i was able to recover it but get the system to run any
of her older software. The system just would not run in classic mode
at all.

 I am not loaded with fund to buy newer software yet but the hardware
is easy to get from places (well some of it)
Ok thanks again I let you know how this works out as I update the
system.

Re: I was just given a G4 733 tower

2008-09-25 Thread CCorsair

Thanks for the info . so do you think i should download the patch and
try the drive again? I not going to update just yet to OS X as I was
told that with the system older hardware I may have problems with
using the older versions of the video software and I plan to use this
system for doing video. I like to update the hardware like Memory and
CPU and video cards but know that I will be limited to the G4
hardware.

If Pioneer dives may be one choice  could Sony be another ? Are there
other brands I can use?
I also looking at changing out one of the two or both hard drives
(there are 2 IBM IDE Deskstars 60 gigs each)
I like to see what i can get out of this box for a bit .. It bring
back memories from working at Apple it was hell some time other time
it was fun but when you have to fix system after system to get it out
the door  you get a bit tired. I can say I have personal worked on
thousands of G3 G4 and iMacs (pre LCD)

Thanks again for the info and by the way I always like the case of the
G3 / G4 and was a lost why Apple just dropped them and wonder what
ever happen to them.

well i searched around and i was shocked to find out what had happen
to the Case and what they are being used for now.

be warned this is a bad end for such great case..

Re: I was just given a G4 733 tower

2008-09-25 Thread CCorsair

Ok so if I want to use and burn with the Pioneer DVD-RW DVR-109 I need
to Get Patchburn ?
Is ther version of Patchburn for OS 9.2.2?
I like to get a list of Known DVD/DVR that work with this systems this
would help as I cn get drive at OEM price and just need a model# to
order them from my shop.

BTW if did give better details on the system here they are

This is Power MAC G4 siver tower(not the Quicksilver) this is the
digital audio model that was before the Quick silver
the system was running OS 9.1.1 and has been updated
the system has 256 megs of PC 133 ram
2 60 or 80 gig hard drives(have to check that again) both are IBM
DeskStars
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 .
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 .

Other this is the 1.5 megs on the memory the true limit/ the are 3
slots and they're are 1gig PC133 and there was not at the time of this
system production but I know the mac have gone on to out perform
specs

Ok thanks

I was just given a G4 733 tower

2008-09-24 Thread CCorsair

Hi all i was just given a working G4 system that was set up for Final
cut video production but the DVR/DVD burner which is a Pioneer bran is
not reading the CD or disk or burning anything.
I tried to replaced with a Pioneer DVD-RW DVR-109 it works for all but
the burning the error said it can used this hardware or can not
identify hardware.. this sounds like a driver error but I worked with
drive and part that have the Apple logo when i worked at Apple on the
like as a Re-work tech on the line and this model came out just aftr i
left in mid -2000  so i not had much time with this type system as we
never had fans on the heat sink of any of the G4 system I worked on so
i taking this system need that extra cooling


this system is running OS 9.2.2 as i updated the OS its  has  only 256
megs of ram(PC133) and 2 video cards the Nvidia 32 meg and a Matrox 32
meg  and has Final cut and ton of other software for video production
and the second keyboard for running the edit and cuts and all.
The person that gave it to me paid $7K for it from BH video they sell
pro video equipment and they sold this system to my friend some time
back.

I need to know what model DVD -RW will work to replace and what
updates can be done to the sytem that would make it ready to do video
again (the DVD burner is one of those things)
The tower has been sitting unused for bit but is in great shape still
runs nice and fast for an OS 9 system and the case is in very great
shape as well (I always love this tower design it was the best ) the
Final cut version is 2 it has some other software for cuts and wipes
and fonts and all for TV out put but no HD i feel can be done unless
we update the video cards  and CPU I would think.

Ok well if any one has info on why the DVD i have won't work and how I
can make it work or what one will work PLEASE let me know

Thanks
