So it would seem that DVI normally uses the RGB colour space.  HDMI can either use YCbCr or RGB but my capture card can only handle 'YCbCr'. Unless there is a way to make it use 'YCbCr'(which I don't think there is), it looks like I won't be capturing off of my Macs that way. 

I used to play some of those on the iMacs in our school's library I was in middle school. I think PangeaSoft is still around: http://www.pangeasoft.net/about.htmland you can still buy there games. These days they are making games for iOS. 

I am trying to hook my macs up to my video capture card using a DVI to HDMI adaptor. The capture card says it's out of range even when it's displaying at resolutions I know it can handle. Any thoughts on this? 

Don't the upgrade disks say 'upgrade' on them somewhere? 

I think it's more than a software thing, my Performa 6400 would only accept Apple branded Mics. Maybe they are using a different voltage? Try plugging the mic into your 'line-in'* port. * "Line-in is the PC term for it. 

Most modern monitors that I've seen won't display resolutions they don't understand, so a custom resolution probally won't work. The video card may not have enough memory for such a thing. But hey I could be wrong please let us know if you ever get it working.   

Cool, at minimal a zip disk holds 100 MB, so you should only need a few of them for system 7 :) .  I don't know if they work on Macs but Iomega made a Zip 750, that should fit a whole CD.  

It was indeed a jumper problem. I had to get some help getting the try with the drives out. Thanks to my DVD-ROM upgrade I can now boot a PowerPC Ubuntu Live CD. :)  

I'm busy at the moment but I'll try changing the jumpers later. (I may not get too it till Sunday) 

Hi:  So I have a PowerMac G4 'Yikes!'. I replced the DVD-ROM with one that can read DVD-R disks. I have a Zip 100 drive installed. The problem is it will no longer boot, the monitor does not power on but I do hear the startup chime. If I have either the Zip 100 or DVD-ROM installed it works but...

Thanks Scott, I figured that dragging part out already.(I am on OS 9)

Have you seen this?: https://www.thinkclassic.org/viewtopic.php?id=46

Uh I see, those aren't 'show stoppers' for me but I think I'll keep my Apple 'approved' DVD-ROM in case other programs might have a problem as well. The issue I have with it is, it can't read certurn burnt disks.(DVD-R's are one of them.) I can use my Mac Mini's DVD-ROM over Firewire but the...

Well I run on OS 9 on this machine but I want boot Linux and a 8.6 Nartorn disk I have. Is there a list of what DVD-ROMs work with the machine.

Can you put any optical drive in a Power Mac G4(I have the 'Yikes' model) or does it have to be one specifically for a Mac? 

This is a neat project. Even if you could boot OS 9 how much more work would it be to get it to recognize the hardware on an unsupported machine? 

Thank you :) . Sorry for the late reply I forgot to subscribe to this thread. 

Hi:   Anyone know of a program I can use to convert Wav files to whatever Classic uses for system sounds?  -Jamie 

Oh well, it was worth a shoot. 

Are the cards flashed for Mac?
