Re: Re: 2004/week 10 dual G5 with one cpu dead
The only dual core G5 CPUs were used in the very last series of Power Mac G5, offered in single processor 2 and 2.3GHz, as well as the dual processor quad 2.5GHz. The mid 2004 PowerMac G5s used dual single core processors, offered as dual 1.8, dual 2.0, and dual 2.5GHz (a single processor 1.8GHz model was offered starting later that year).

Re: re-flashing video cards for use in Mac computers

Morris bbh...@gmail.com wrote: Does anyone have any experience in flashing a PC video card with the AGP slot connection for use in a G4 PowerMac (or G5 PowerMac), by installing it into the Mac and using a remote desktop program to display the screen on a different computer, so the re-flashing process can be run on the Mac while it has no working video card display? Sounds like a crazy idea, I know. But if a person doesn't have a Windows PC with an AGP slot any longer, and doesn't have a PCI video card that works on a Mac, what are the other options available? I have a 128mb VRAM Windows version of the ATI Radeon 8500, that I want to use in my dual 1.25GHz G4 PowerMac MDD, which I have upgraded to stock Apple dual 1.42GHz G4 CPU module. David It was fairly common among the old flashing brigade - much less common now due to the death of the original pci and agp - and is usually achieved by running Panther through chicken of the vnc - or any vnc controller. Panther because it will boot with a non mac card installed. The flashing software is Graphiccelerator but be aware that it will flash all the ATI cards installed - both pci and agp - a cautionary note if you do have an ATI pci card to boot and flash the ATI agp. There never was a 128MB ATI 8500 for the mac so no standard rom - just the 64MB version - so you may end up with half the vram. Also the 128MB version for the pc was known as the 8500LE and as far as I can remember a cut down version with vga and a strange dvi port that has no vga and will not take an adapter.

Re: re-flashing video cards for use in Mac computers
Hello David! I suppose what you're proposing could work. I don't know if the software exists for Macintosh to flash graphics cards, though. I recently flashed a Geforce FX5500 to a FX5200, but had to use a PC to get it done, as the software required an x86-compatible system.

I'd disassemble and press the tip out backwards from the inside. Other possible solutions are: Bend tip on safety pin, insert, twist, and pull out backwards. Carefully use glue to remove. Perhaps superglue on a wooden toothpick, or thick JB Quick Weld on the broken remainder of the male jack. Moisture or water makes superglue dry, so you can blow your breath to get a droplet to dry fast, or use another toothpick with water on the tip. It may not hold, and is a little risky if you screw up. I've actually used this glue method with the broken power tip of an iBook, but the power tip had a tiny residual collar of plastic to hold the glue droplet, and the audio jack will likely be missing any similar indentation. -- 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: (Re)Building a G4 with Several PCI Cards
Have successfully replaced the mobo. Almost Plug and Play. Even down to using the Sonnet FW/USB along with the M-Audio 2496 PCI cards together. Onboard ethernet is working with the new mobo. Also noticed AHT 1.2.4 doesn't make the squeeling clicking noises it made when testing my original mobo ... this time around, completely silent. Another indication my original one was bad? Both boards test sessions Passed. Any reason why Time Machine now thinks it has to replace the entire backup (making the resulting space needed insufficient)? Relative to replacing the mobo? I noticed I no longer have Serial Number and Model Number in the System Profiler. Did this signal Time Machine it has to backup another machine? Do I need to start over my TM backups? I could use a Panther partition backup from awhile ago, still on the external TM backup drive. That seems to be my only issue.

Re: (Re)Building a G4 with Several PCI Cards
The current arrangement seems to be working with the ATI Radeon 9800Pro: just using the 2 PCI cards 1. M-Audio and 2. Rosewill NIC. Set it up with the GeForce4 MX installed. I pushed the CUDA once when installing the ATI card, waited a few minutes, put in the power, and did cmd/opt/p/r for a second chime. Good results. Nevertheless ... I decided to try a replacement mobo. en route ...

The G4 also has a second slave 40+GB HD installed with three partitions: a working OS 10.4.11 in one partition, a working OS 10.2.8 in a second partition and a non working OS 10.4.11 in the third partition which unfortunately is the current selected start-up system. The current situation is that the start up disk is the third partition which on start-up with a blue screen almost at the end of the boot-up. The screen says that a debug module is missing and instructs a shut down and restart of the computer. I was originally using the master HD with no problems and then downloaded an update to Itunes without first clearing up a failure of Firefox. When I restarted, the G4 never got out of the spinning wheel. So I tried a restart while depressing the shift/option/command/ delete keys and the G4 booted-up using OS 10.4.11 from the first partition of the slave HD. Then I copied the contents of the master HD to the third partition of the slave HD and that completed successfully. I then reinstalled OS 10.4 and 10.4.11 on the third partition and restarted with the third partition of the slave HD as the boot-up HD and got the message that a debug module is missing and instructs a shut down and restart of the computer.. Doing a restart with the the shift/option/command/delete keys depressed does assign the boot-up drive to the master HD but I then get the spinning wheel. The G4 DA is set to open on the OS in the third partition and I don't know of anyway to change the OS to startup either in the first or second partition because the G4 DA will not boot amnd allow me to change the start up partition. I have tried booting with a start up update OS disk by holding down the C key. I have tried booting by holding down the shift key. I have tried booting by holding down the command/option/shift and delete but all that does is change the start up HD from the third partition to the master HD. You don't mention it, so it may not be available on the DA's -- But Try holding the 'option(AKA Alt) key' while booting. Chuck D. I don't have a good DVD with OS 10.4 and an 10.4.11 update as the one I used didn't work. Any suggestions? Does anyone have a working DVD with OS 10.4 and 10.4.11 update with the documentation that I can buy?
