Re: Dead G5 dual 1.8 tower

Different iterations of the PowerMac G5 have either a CR2032 or a 1/2 AA, best bet is to open it up and look inside. Most of the Apple service manuals I've read say the 1/2 AA is good down to 2.8 V. -- -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using

Re: Quicksilver- Graphics card won't go in Tab Slot

First of all, the Quicksilver had an AGP video card, not PCI. There were also two generations of the Quicksilver, made in 2001 and 2002--but both should have the same universal AGP 4x slot (brown with green retainer clip). Just in case, have a look at the slot and make sure it has the correct

Re: UPnP/DLNA client

There are a couple of options (XBMS, Mythbuntu, etc) that will run on PPC if you're looking for a media front-end to connect directly to a TV, not sure about streaming. However, most PPC probably won't do too well with HD due to their graphics hardware. On Mon, Dec 23, 2013 at 7:03 PM, joe duran

Re: Lost Connections...

If you're talking about an ad-hoc connection (not through an access point or router) then you can do so by selecting Create Network from the Airport drop-down menu. Shouldn't have any other problems than that, though it's more likely that the newer computer will see the older computer, instead of

If you're set on using newer equipment (i.e., already have it) then you're probably out of luck. But, they've been making music for a very long time--you could probably find old equipment of a similar vintage to your G4 for more reasonable prices. Don't know enough about the equipment to say if it
