So,
I have now two Powermac G4 AGPs,
I have a harddrive with Tiger and OS9.2.2 installed and after fiddling around... Both wont Boot. At all.
The first from which i took the Hard drive and the GPU was a bit glitchy for a while and was buggy booting the OS, it only booted one time, couldnt reboot without unplugging the Power cable, the second one i got because i couldnt flash the Firmware to accept a sonnet card.
But the second one has the same issue: since about a week, they don't Boot osx, they only Show the Apple Logo forever.
Booting from any osx Boot DVD or cd (10.2-10.4) doesn't work. It Shows the Apple logo, the loadibg circle and then the screen goes black, even though you hear the disc drive working etc.
Trying to Boot os9 has the same Result: it Shows the grey Logo and the screen goes Black.
Also it can't be the Hard Disk because booting from CD doesn't work on both and ot can't be the GPU, because it Shows like the bootlader and the Apple Logo.
And they dont share more components. Also the second one doesn't act buggy a side from it not booting.
