Could PSU be the source of the problems? the computer freezes at 43°C when running at 500mhz.

Only the fan screwed to the original B&W rev.2 Heatsink. If I get a heatpiped one, I'm afraid the real problem would be closing the case :-/ . I have seen some of these and they are really huge. On later G4s that might not be a problem because the processor position changes to a larger...

Hi, As I told in other posts, I use a B&W G3 with G4 zif from Yikes! 400 at 450mhz (trying 500mhz still). I followed the voltage tweaking guide to achieve 500mhz by setting the core voltage to 2.6v with no luck. After adding OCZ Freeze thermal compound, a K6-2 Fan on top and 2 smaller on...

Thanks for reminding me that page. It seems to be hard work. Since I'm using a voltage tweaked G4 zif module from a Yikes! on the B&W (running at 2.6v), I wanted to clock it between 450mhz and 500mhz (but maintaining the PCI BUS frequecies) because if I clock it to 500mhz, I get the famous...

Hi, I read somewhere that this is possible to do. I'd like to know if this is also possible without removing the resistor down the motherboard. Best Regards, Filipe

Not really, but they are way rare to find. This G4 400mhz zif I got on e-bay. I could not find one in the whole country. Even complete Yikes! are not found in here.

That's right! Sometimes I see some used Sawtooth with low prices, but it depends on the vendor and normally is out of town, so there's the high shipping cost and no OS 8.6 [:(] ]'> . Some people think because it's a mac that they can get 200% profit on it even if it's an obsolete model...

Not only they still extremely expensive in here, but also I need Mac OS 8.6 and would be harder for me to flash agp cards.

Are there any differences between those 2? I just tried the voltage tweak to make my brand new G4 ZIF 400 run at 500mhz but it failed. The machine freezes a few seconds after boot, or during it, sometimes with bomb error messages. I followed exactly this...

Hi, If someone knows which videocards are supported by these drivers, please let me know as there was no documentation at all included. More specifically I'd like to know if the Geforce MX4000 series are supported by them (I know that the Geforce 4MX 400 and Ti 4000 series are and the FX series...

But does it work under Mac OS 9.2.2 with latest Nvidia drivers (Nvidia Driver Update 3.0 v1.1)? Will I get full hardware acceleration support(scrolling, OpenGL and RAVE)?

Hi, I'm pretending to upgrade my video card and I'm not sure what would be the right model. It must be regular PCI (flashed). I know that the latest driver update from Nvidia supports the Geforce 4MX 400 series, but I'm not sure if it supports the MX4000 too. If someone knows, please let me know.

Unfortunately, system 7 is incompatible with the B&W. Any other ideas?

Again, tried it with no luck... :( Any other ideas?

I guess that couldn't be a RAM problem because the game came with about 40MBs allocated and I allocated more than 200MBs up to now (for both original and patched versions which still have problems) Perhaps that could be because of the Voodoo 2 boards. I actually don't have extensions loaded for...

It requests any PowerPC running System 7.5.3 or later, but recommends a 604 or G3.

Sorry, how could I forget... My system: B&W G3 with rev2 mobo and G4 ZIF from Yikes! 350mhz (overclocked to 450mhz with voltage boost) ATI Radeon 7000 32MB, 2 Monster 3D II Voodoo 2 8MB, system 9.2.2 in a 80GB HD (master) and system 8.6 in a 40GB HD (slave). The game does not support...

Has anyone who's been playing this game experienced this? On the second level (first episode) it crashes right away when hopping out of the water inside the tube, if the game resolution is above 640x480. There were also a lot of random freezes during the same level (at any resolution) and...

I've been experiencing problems running SCI engine games on modern PPC systems. Both Space Quest 1 Enhanced and Larry 1 Enhanced enters into infinite loops during some parts of the game, which makes them unplayable. Larry seems to work with my G3 but this happens with Space Quest 1 even in 68040...

Hi, I was just wondering if there's a way to make newer Mac Os (8 and above) support the sound driver found on the earlier versions (like system 7 or 7.5). Some games simply don't have sound under newer OSes but they do under the older ones.
