Re: Quicksilver won't boot into target disk mode
I have had the same problem on my graphite PM G4, but putting the jumpers in a dual configuration worked. I have both hard drives at 40GB, one is a master one is a slave. Only thing is, it only worked for me after i partitioned the main hard drive. Now only the main HDD can be used in target disk mode, but it works.\\Here's the configuration that solved my problem, if it helps: Jumper settings on drive 1 are master, drive 2 is slave. both hard drives have the same capacity. both hard drives were made by IBM. -- 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.

Re: Cube processor upgrade?

I have a Sonnet 1.2 GHz in my Cube and it runs several days a week, no problems; the disclaimers- I have Zalman base and GPU fans, a PowerLogix acrylic case (slightly larger, provides better airflow) and I have moved the VRM off to the side. You can see my Cube project here: http://www.cubeowner.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=12882hl= Heat is the big issue inside a Cube. You need a processor made for the Cube, Mac AGP G4 processors won't fit unless you make a custom heatsink riser (you can search the XLR*yourmac archives to see how it's done but it is a PIA). Sonnet made two upgrades for the Cube, 1.2 GHz and 800 MHz. The 800 is pretty well liked, it throws off less heat. The PowerLogix upgrades do have the VRM bypass which is a great feature, it's one reason used ones are more expensive than Sonnets.

Re: Quicksilver won't boot into target disk mode
Hi LISTERS, WELL Thanks for all helpful suggestions so far HD is a 40GB Seagate ST340014A, presumably the original. At present there is no jumper on the back so I assume that's running as Cable Select? I know about jumpering HD's from my days on the Dark Side, but since most of my Macs are all-in-ones, I've always used external FW drives and USB memory sticks, so I'm not yet up to speed on the Mac way. If I wanted to add another HD would I have to jumper them as Master and slave or would leaving them as cable select work? Ive got a brand new 40GB drive that was destined for one of the iMacs, so I may as well clone the working system over to that - however the QS is still being a bit pernickety! It has been running fine and not powering down, and seemed to have settled. However it has somehow evoked Murphy...and yesterday it took about 50 tries before it went stable. initially the fans will come on and then it will die immediately. After about twenty of these it will start to bong and then sometimes gets halfway through boot before dying! After more retries it will boot OSX and then stay stable for a couple of minutes, - I invoked Disk utility and did a Repair permissions , and it fixed quite a lot, and then fell over again! I left it running yesterday when I went to work and came back today to find it had fallen over again. It's now running stable (touch wood!) after about five boots. I have tried booting in Safe mode: in the early stages of the multi- boot routine this seems to make no difference - it's just as flaky! However it seems to not always 'see' the shift key, when I am booting it, so booting into safe mode seems hit-and-miss! This is with both my Lindy keyboard or with my Mac Pro keyboard, which I've currently got plugged in. Processor heatsink just feels warm to the touch, so I don't think it's a heat issue, and I'm loath to reseat the processor just FTHOI. HD not showing any SmartDrive problems. As I write this it's been up and running for about 25 minutes and I've just installed Onyx. I'm going to settle down with a cup of tea and read the system logs for today and see if I can find any clues there. Keep those helpful thought coming in people! Regards, Dan.

No, most likely no jumper means your main HD is running as Master in a single-HD mode (no slave present) I know about jumpering HD's from my days on the Dark Side, but since most of my Macs are all-in-ones, I've always used external FW drives and USB memory sticks, so I'm not yet up to speed on the Mac way. Since the days when Apple went to IDE (from SCSI), jumping HDs whether PC or Mac is the same - you are probably in more familiar territory than you may think :-) If I wanted to add another HD would I have to jumper them as Master and slave or would leaving them as cable select work? In my experience, this depends on the unit's (firmware) anticipation I have two QS units in the house, one is jumpered as CS (cable select) and one is Master/Slave. I tried M/S on the CS unit; didn't work, CS did - trial and error. However, two MDD units at school was CS, and I took my cue from the OEM drive still in there. Earlier G4s: all I saw were M-S configurations. Ive got a brand new 40GB drive that was destined for one of the iMacs, so I may as well clone the working system over to that - however the QS is still being a bit pernickety! Whatever configuration you are currently settled on (M/S or CS), try the opposite. Incidentally, this may have been mentioned before, but in both arrangements, the target Master drive needs to be at the end of the cable (not the middle socket) It has been running fine and not powering down, and seemed to have settled.

G5 and M-audio crash on boot
A bit off topic, but maybe somebody here has some ideas! My G5 2.0 Duely with Tiger (10.4.11) will often hang on boot - all the fans running full speed and the dreaded screen saying hold down power button for 5 seconds... which I do, and eventually the thing will boot. When I look through the logs, M-audio is always right there at the top of the list. I have an M-Audio 2496 PCI card in it that I use a lot for digitizing music. I see complaints on the tubes about how lousy the M-Audio drivers are. Anybody else find a solution? I'm considering dumping the card and going to a firewire audio digitizing solution. The built-in audio isn't quite good enough.

Basic Video card question....
Sorry if this questions seems to naive/basic, but my experience with AGP cards is limited. I bought a flashed nVidia GeForce FX5200 128Mb to replace the 64Mb of a late 2004 PowerMac G5 dual 2GHz. The FX5200 is shorter than the original ATI Radeon 9600 Pro, so the hook of the GeForce card where the AGP slot latch catches has to be introduced inside the slot. Will the slot be damaged if I put the card hook into it? Or can I simply put the card all the way in the slot whitout problem? Have been googling around but cannot find a definitve answer.

Re: Basic Video card question....
If it is longer, be careful and try not to damage anything inside. Put it in carefully, and you'll be good to go. It will fit in, but i don't know about the hook. The hook may be some obstrustion to the system. I have expirience with an Nvidia GeForce 6200 GT with 256MB VRAM, it is very long, and it does have a hook, but basically i looked where i was plugging it in, and everything was good to go. As long a it can fit into the socket, you're ok. BTW, the Nvidia GeForce FX5200 is kinda slower, so i would reccoemnd buying one from me. I have once Nvidia GeForce 6800 GT AGP 8x 256MB VRAM. yes it is the longer one, but it has no hook, and it requirees plugging in a power plug like the ones on a HDD on a 3.5 internal drive, or a DVD/CD drive. It's pretty fast, and useful. I don't need it at all because It won't fit into my PM G4 Graphite. inteas i have ste same card that's compatible in there only it's a 6200GT not a 6800GT. -- 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.

Re: Basic Video card question....
The FX 5200 is shorter that the original card, so the hook used to secure it to the AGP slot latch is lined with the slot and has to get inside if I want the card to fit. It`s the same lenght as the Rage 128 fitted originally to early G4 PowerMacs (I had one to compare), so it would perfectly full the Gigabit Ethernet AGP slot. The AGP slot in the G5 is far longer (64bit vs 32bit slot), so the hook with catches the G4 AGP slot latch would have to get into the longer AGP slot of the G5, in an area which has its own connectors, which MAY be damaged in the process. I was worried this could damage the slot, so in doubt I did nothing and put back the original video card. I was told by the seller the card was used in another G5, so I guess it should fit, but not being 100% sure I wanted to ask first.

RE: Cube processor upgrade?
Is there a 1.GB or faster Apple unit I can rob out of a QuickSilver that will work in my Cube? John Carmonne Yorba Linda USA Sent from my MBP I doubt it John. Most of the QS and later either had a 133 or 167MHz bus speed on their motherboards and the CPUs had to be matched to those. The Cube is only 100MHz isn't it ? Also the chips that were used in the QS and later were the PPC 7445 I think which sucked a lot of power and ran hot - not ideal for a Cube with it's 205W PSU and low airflow case design. Most of the better and later aftermarket CPU upgrades that came from Sonnet or PowerLogix used the 7447 chip which ran much cooler http://eshop.macsales.com/item/PowerLogix/PF47S1500CN/ Some also supplied a VRM bypass kit to take some of the load off the VRM. There have been some guys who have installed CPUs from a DA like a dual 500MHz but with a bit of case modding as well. Stewie _ Get the latest jobs delivered.
