    Duke Nukem 3D visual artifacts and Redneck Rampage crash

    Hi. Does anyone here know how to get rid of these? They're more likely to happen if the game resolution is set above 640x480. I tried running the games on different Mac OS (8.6 and 9.2.2), on Sheepshaver, with extensions off, with another videocard, installing available patches for them but...

    Best Solution for modded G4 zif cooling

    Hi, As I told in other posts, I use a B&W G3 with G4 zif from Yikes! 400 at 450mhz (trying 500mhz still). I followed the voltage tweaking guide to achieve 500mhz by setting the core voltage to 2.6v with no luck. After adding OCZ Freeze thermal compound, a K6-2 Fan on top and 2 smaller on...

    B&W G3 with 133mhz fsb

    Hi, I read somewhere that this is possible to do. I'd like to know if this is also possible without removing the resistor down the motherboard. Best Regards, Filipe

    Differences between the B&W and Yikes! Heatsink

    Are there any differences between those 2? I just tried the voltage tweak to make my brand new G4 ZIF 400 run at 500mhz but it failed. The machine freezes a few seconds after boot, or during it, sometimes with bomb error messages. I followed exactly this...

    Nvidia Driver Update 3.0 v1.1 for Mac OS 9.2.2

    Hi, If someone knows which videocards are supported by these drivers, please let me know as there was no documentation at all included. More specifically I'd like to know if the Geforce MX4000 series are supported by them (I know that the Geforce 4MX 400 and Ti 4000 series are and the FX series...

    Latest Nvidia card for OS 9

    Hi, I'm pretending to upgrade my video card and I'm not sure what would be the right model. It must be regular PCI (flashed). I know that the latest driver update from Nvidia supports the Geforce 4MX 400 series, but I'm not sure if it supports the MX4000 too. If someone knows, please let me know.

    Redneck Rampage crashes and freezes

    Has anyone who's been playing this game experienced this? On the second level (first episode) it crashes right away when hopping out of the water inside the tube, if the game resolution is above 640x480. There were also a lot of random freezes during the same level (at any resolution) and...

    SCI (Sierra) games on G3/G4 systems

    I've been experiencing problems running SCI engine games on modern PPC systems. Both Space Quest 1 Enhanced and Larry 1 Enhanced enters into infinite loops during some parts of the game, which makes them unplayable. Larry seems to work with my G3 but this happens with Space Quest 1 even in 68040...

    Older Sound Driver on Newer OSes

    Hi, I was just wondering if there's a way to make newer Mac Os (8 and above) support the sound driver found on the earlier versions (like system 7 or 7.5). Some games simply don't have sound under newer OSes but they do under the older ones.

    Classic files update

    can't get 16 colors mode in my B&W G3

    Hi there. I've been trying to set my desktop to 16 colors mode with no success. I've got 2 HDs, one with Mac OS 9.2.2 and the other with OS 8.6, but both won't show anything less than 256 colors. In Sheepshaver I actually get 16 colors and black & white modes with OS 8.6. Is there anyway I...
