Greetings,
I tried to listen to an audio clip today and got no sound. I turned
up the sound on the computer and got nothing. I checked to see if my
speakers were plugged in and they were. So I unplugged them and went
to the sound preference panel. It listed as the output device

It'll run Tiger just fine with the G3 350 mhz CPU in it. I'm running
10.4.11 on a 300 mhz iBook Clamshell with just 576 megs of ram
(maxed). I can't say it's a speed demon, but it runs surprisingly
well. I would recommend a minimum of 512 megs of ram for Tiger - 1024
megs even better!

Nope, it does not work on the G3 PowerMacs. Try the startup Disk

The slot for the video card is somehow different than the other PCI slots. I
don't really understand it, but I'm confident further internet research will
help to clarify this mystory.

My Powerbook is a 1.5 GHz PowerPC G4 with 2 GB of RAM running
10.4.11, purchased July 2004. About three weeks ago, the sound quit
working. I do not know what I did right before the sound quit
working, because I'm not sure exactly when it quit. I checked out
things I knew to check out.
Hello,
Ever since I have been using "Mail" on my eMac, I have always gotten
a sound to indicate when mail has arrived. Suddenly, today, it stopped.
Can anyone suggest a reason? I'm using 10.5.5.
Thanks
