I purchased UGREEN's 2.4GHz wireless mouse and I plugged the USB receiver into my Power Mac G4 and booted it up. The mouse worked fine on the initial boot screen, during the few seconds when the Mac OS 9 logo appears, in Mac OS X, and even on the startup disk selection screen when holding down...

Oh, I didn't know that. Thank you so much!!!!!

Hello, I recently replaced the logic board of my Power Mac G4, but it won't even power on. The original model I was using was an AGP G4 with a 400MHz CPU. Since the board was faulty, I decided to purchase a logic board for the Gigabit model, considering a future CPU upgrade. The original...

Maybe I chose wrong ssds, I will try other ssds! Thanks.

I've ordered adaptec one in ebay. I will try it. Thanks!

I really want to use sata ssd but I've tried this almost 2 months, still doesn't work. And I tested and I found that every hard drive is working perfectly and smooth. But ssd? I think that is the problem. I installed Samsung 860 EVO 256GB and Samsung OEM 128GB ssd, but os 9 or os x can't...

https://everymac.com/systems/apple/powermac_g4/specs/powermac_g4_400_agp.html This model is my mac and I upgraded to ATI 9000 Pro and 2GB ram. And I checked my firmware is 4.2.8 so that firm is up to date... So I don't know how to solve this. But some users say some ssds work perfectly with...

Oh, I've found that HDD is working perfectly. Only SSD is in trouble. Is there anyone who knows the reason? After installing and booting with HDD, OS 9 works perfectly. But I can't erase or write in any ssds.

My mac is in trouble for booting. Os version is 9.2.2 and rom version is 9.0.1. And I'm using seritek 1s2 card with two ssd, but I can't install os 9 or os x, either. After booting with installer cd, always freeze in install. And I can install os to "HDD", it works, but after booting, always...

Thank you so much. T.T But the ordered one already has been shipped so I will test… T.T It’s been almost 3 weeks for finding proper card, I didn’t know it is really hard and tough thing… Btw, thank you so much for informations!

I chose "I like a bit of pain" and 128k rom. And I bought 2 ports sil3112 cards from ebay, but originally these cards had 128k am28f010 chip that can't be flashed. So I ordered 128k am29f010 chips and I replaced with soldering machine. So I flashed these cards with my old pc, yes, it worked but...

I’ve tried this method few weeks ago, I bought these cards in ebay but my cards had very poor quality. And my g4 mac detected these were seritek 1s2, but these didn’t work. If I try to erase or write or add files or even edit drive name, my mac always stopped. So I‘ve ordered pre-patched sata...

Oh, it looks very good… Btw I’ve ordered one more card in ebay, I hope it can be flashed… T.T If I fail, I’m gonna buy that rabbit hole card… Thanks for information!!!!!!!

Right. You must be lucky one. 🤣 And I know there are 2 ports sil3112 flashable cards, and I got one, but the eeprom chip was a trouble. Most of cheap sil3112 cards these days in ebay have non-flashable eeprom chip. I tried to flash with my old desktop(I didn't know my card has non compatible...

Oh, they sent me a reply that it is unavailable so there will be no charge, finally... Btw, can you guys recommend me bootable four sata port card for mac os 9? I think I would never ever find seritek 1v4 card, maybe... 🤣

I've ordered 4 sata port card for ppc mac g4 a week ago, but there is no order status and tracking number. I've sent some emails but still no response. Is there any one who knows what is going on with firmtek? I know it is hard to find proper card for os 9, and I was happy that finally I found...
