    need help with AGP riser cable

    i did some further testing. my Geforce 2 MMX works to desktop. also runs cinebench on the riser card. the riser only works with the key forward (3.3v) mode. the rear key is pinned on the riser but not on the cards so... i guess ill cut away those rear pins (1.5v) and see if that changes...

    need help with AGP riser cable

    yea the cards are mac and pc - they are all 4x cards. whats strange is that it boots with out a driver. so im thinking it must relate to opengl of some type - some kind of signaling issue perhaps. i know the agp ports are the same from pc to mac but the cable is not keyed as a universal...

    So, recapping g4 cube psu…

    its easier if you need to change forum factor. you can build a one off psu easy enough, if your not using ADC you dont NEED the 25v power but again, you can always use a standard ATX - pin it out to the 22 pin apple and then add a second 25v psu off one of its rails or off of 110v to make up the...

    x800 pc flashed to mac

    well this is where it gets complicated. the mac card for the G5 is very different from the fire x3. the only mac cards i can find for sale back in 2005 were full XT's but with an AGP pro port. it seems the board design was near identical, just took more power from the AGP slot. this is 16...

    get ADB performa keyboard power button to turn on G4 quick silver...

    Yeah I've come to realize that, somewhere around 2001 is where they dropped it. So I'm building a logic controller that will sniff the bus and the encapsulate the packets, from there I can set a transistorized output to trigger a relay and manually close the power switch on the front IO panel.
