    Quick question, can you put a Single G4 on Dual G4 board?

    I don't know, that was the way it came. What I think happened was the heat sink pulled away from the processor, so the processor with no cooling burnt itself out. The replacement I bought has a fresh coat of Arctic Silver.

    If you're curious, yes it does, it does very well!

    Quick question, can you put a Single G4 on Dual G4 board?

    There's a store nearby and I think I can get a single 1.25 ghz daughter card from a MDD fairly cheap. I have a Dual 1.00 ghz MDD with a burnt out processor. I've googled and found articles going from a Single to Dualie but not the other way around. Anyone have an idea?

    Ohh, I'm bad. Core2Duo color classic.

    Nice work, but can you Hackintosh it? But I guess you can keep the Windows load Basilisk II and emulate a Mac and really confuse some people :D

    G4 MDD startup issue/blank screen

    It's not looking good, she's dead as a door nail now. I've swapped the batteries, put in PCI video card, disconnected every IDE cable, started swapping ram chips. I don't what's next for this brave dualie. I've pulled the HD just to see what's on it and it's an 80gb IBM Deskstar. I know the...

    G4 MDD startup issue/blank screen

    I'm fixing a G4 MDD Powermac and it has this annoying problem. This computer will chime on startup and will make some hard drive noises it will not display any video on the DVI or ADC video ports. It's pretty sweet (Dual 1.25 ghz and 2gb ram) but this problem has me stumped. I've reset the...

    Beat-up iMac G3

    I used one of those (indigo) for my last two years in Uni. It handled most things quite well including editing in iMovie, it was just a bit slow on flash video but that's Adobe's fault. Tecneeq your avatar is hilarious.

    Quadra 840av hangs at startup. Cursor in top left corner

    The Quadra boots to a grey screen with a cursor or mouse in the corner and does not continue any further. I can't think what it could be. I was swapped a hard drive and then stopped working after that. Right now I've swapped the battery, taken out the ram and disconnected everything except the...

    New Suv

    Don't forget public transit, I've liberated a 840av and Trinitron on the street car and subway. The 'burbs are another story. You could always put a computer on the flat part where your legs go on a vespa.

    Merry Purple Heatsink Xmas 6100 owners!

    I thought it was that but I didn't think they made G3 upgrades for 6100. Nubus 601@66mhz to G3 is quite a jump.

    mac mini woes

    I heard those things were quite tough and least likely to be returned for servicing. The small size could have let heat build up and cook your mobo or powersupply. If you figure it out, let us know. Have you looked for the Apple Service manual for those models?
