I wonder if it goes connected to a place on the motherboard instead, but I could not find a suitable connector there. (I was wondering if the no boot could be related to the CPU fan not spinning) Have you checked the socket for any deformed pins? also the processor usually takes a little to a lot of force to seat it.

Re: Compatible 2TB hard disk for Powermac G5 Quad Core
Tim, I had a similar setup running on a Sawtooth, but it started crapping out on me. I've got a couple Quicksilvers but I wonder if it's worth stepping down to the lesser amount of RAM? Any thoughts? The Duet will pop right into the Quicksilver and the RAM I've got is Crucial PC133...

MS's whacked WMV format (and docx) throw me all the time. Well, WMV is not a 'format'. Like a Quicktime file, it's a 'container' format that holds multimedia of a variety of codecs. So long as 10.8 doesn't break Perian, (or incorporates it's bits!) I think I'll be happy. If someone steps up and fixes it for 10.8, I'll also be happy. It's not just playback...Perian opens up all those formats to anything that uses the QT libraries at all. So any, say 3d design program that allows a QT movie to be imported for a background, can use any format supported by quicktime automagically, or export any format supported by quicktime. Perian put the 'magic' in that 'automagically'. -- Bruce Johnson University of Arizona College of Pharmacy Information Technology Group Institutions do not have opinions, merely customs -- 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.

Mail 2.1.3 vs iPhone 4s problem
Relevant Hardware/software: PowerMac G5 running 10.4.11 with Mail 2.1.3 iPhone 4s with latest updates. My brother got an iPhone 4s for business. Most of the reason he went with it is the camera. I am working on getting him to be able to batch send the pics, but for now he sends them as individual picture messages to my email. I then select all the emails, click forward to make them one email with 10 photos and forward that to the appropriate people. With his old, semi dumb phone, everything worked fine. Each photo was in the forwarded email at the proper size. With the iPhone, the first picture of the group that I select to forward is fine. The rest of the pictures are not in the email. Instead there is the proper size one of the first picture, then there are small thumbnails of the first picture equal in number to the number of pictures that were supposed to be forwarded. I have checked and all the photos coming from the iPhone do have separate names. But in the forwarded email it shows one large of the first photo, then the thumbnails of the same photo and they all have the same the same (ie: a large picture of img_2496 then 9 thumbnail size pics of the same image, all also names img_2496) Anyone seen this before or have any thoughts?
