Sorry, i haven't found time. Below are some quick photos of processor testing using MacBench 4.0

I will use benchmark sometime to check. With the Sonnet G3 upgrade the Performa is literally another computer. It is very fast and responsive. Sonnet card is one of the best buys i have done for my Macs. Huge difference. Some info: Doom 2, Heretic, Dark Forces: They run with full speed on high...

Just an update of my setup: Macintosh Performa 6116CD Sonnet Nubus G3 500mhz 136mb ram 72gb hard drive Apple 8100 video card 4mb Apple 24x scsi cd rom drive Macintosh Color Display Monitor M1212 Apple M3501 keyboard Macally mouse Monkey Island 2 mouse pad Gravis Mac Mousestick II Roland MT32...

The same happens on the Messenger, game from same company.

There is a big pause of seconds when i type the Esc button while playing the game in order to go to menu. This happens on both games (Dracula Resurrection and Dracula The Last Sanctuary) and only on my Power Macintosh G3 Minitower (300 mhz, 768mb ram, 120gb hard drive, Ati Radeon 32mb Mac...

Thank you for your answer. I found a Sata II hard drive from a guy near me. When i take it, i will connect it and install Mac OS. Then i will see which video card is installed and i will proceed with my project accordingly.

Greetings, i bought a Powermac G5 (7,2) dual 2 ghz, 4gb ram with no hard drives. My purpose is to use it for games along with my Motorola, PPC 601, G3 and G4 systems. I have the following questions because i don't know much about G5s. 1. Which are the best video cards for this machine? 2. I...

Although my favourite of my Macintosh computers is the Macintosh Performa 6116CD (with Sonnet G3 installed), i believe that my Power Macintosh G3 Minitower is a better choice for 68k and PPC games. The big difference is the video card. I have the on board card with 6mb full vram and also the Ati...

I had the same issue with my Power Macintosh G3 Minitower (300 mhz, 768mb ram, Ati Radeon 7000 Mac edition 32mb vram). I disabled the sleep choice and now i am ok.

Greetings again. After two years I decided again to pick up my PowerBook 540c from the basement. I tried again the external 4x apple scsi cd rom with the same above results. But today it seems that i solved my problem. I searched my basement for cables and adapters and i found another one scsi...

This is no good. One important thing for me is to be able to boot from the SSD.

You mean that you bought the Sata card from the ebay linked above?

Well, it worked. Yesterday night before I turn off the computer, i erased the partition 1 and changed it from extended to standard. I installed again the international version of Mac OS 7.6 (the cd contains various languages and i installed the international English one). Now it boots normally...

Yesterday evening finally i initialized my hard drive.  Again 3 partitions but this time i made all of them extended. I used the drive setup 1.7.3 version. Can Mac OS 7.6.1 be installed in extended format drive? The other times i had the one partition standard and the other two partitions...

I will check it when i get home. I will try to install also an international version of 7.6.
