The Ati Displays control pannel?

:) Ok, I'll try Quake 3, I've never played it, but I was referring to some software that allows me to verify that it works correctly, OpenGL, and other things.

Thanks for your answers, I'll continue testing as you suggest. Doing a Google search, I found this link from another user with a similar result: https://aquamac.proboards.com/thread/1485/radeon-9100-128-mb-vram What software can I use under Sorbet to test graphics performance? I could compare...

Hi, I recently found this used 128MB Radeon 9100 for a good price and decided to flash it for Mac: For flashing, as I don't have a PC, I use a TLL866 programmer and I have a few 25P10 EEPROMs to replace the original 25P05, which I have used with other graphics cards (7000PCI, Radeon...

Yes, I know how to do it, I have done several G4 CPU swaps.

This afternoon, I had a little time, and I reflowed the CPUs. But the result is strange. Now the GE won't power on. Sometimes the red LED on the motherboard lights up for less than a second, then turns off again. No matter how hard I try, it won't power on. If I put in another CPU card, it...

Perfect, thanks. From what I understand, your patcher didn't remove anything from the original patcher; it's still valid for the 7447 and 7448, right? You only added the new G3s. This way I can make a boot CD and save it as UNIVERSAL. Thank you for the work you have all done; it's a shame I...

No había visto esta foto, hiciste un intercalador. Eres brillante. Ese es mi problema. :)

Although I'm pretty decent at electronics, messing with firmware is difficult if I have to type commands. I don't like doing it without understanding what I'm doing. The Newertech patcher I've used on some G4s has been a Newertech BootCD. I boot the G4 by pressing the programming button, and...

Okay, it's a good experiment to run, but the 750FX's BGA pattern would be different from the G3 installed in an iMac; that has a 360 BGA like a G4 PPC7400. Regarding the firmware, is the patcher joevt posted installed the same way as a PowerLogix or NewerTech patcher?

Sorry, I have a G3 750FX.

How cool! So, could the same swap be performed on an iMac G3 tray? I have a 750GX 900MHz processor on a faulty iBook G3 motherboard.

Thanks for the suggestions. I've performed the tests you suggested. I've cleaned thoroughly, tried pressing the 300-pin connector, the USB has power but no video, I've removed the EEPROM without success, and then put it back in. I performed another test, tried it on another GE that works fine...

I measured the Vcore and it's at 2.1v, which would be correct. I turned it on without a heatsink, and both processors get very hot, but it won't boot. The power LED is still off and there's no chime. I've noticed that the PCB is bulging downwards, I imagine from having the heatsink on it for so...

Thanks for your reply. I'll try to spend some time on it this weekend, but it seems like it's never been disassembled. When I put the single 400MHz chip in to test, it started right away without any problems. I'll try to check the Vcore to see if it's present or if there's a defect. I don't...

I bought it with that defect, and given the OS installed, I think it hasn't been used for a long time. OSX 10.2 The CPU board looks great, nothing's burned out, and the caps are made of tantalum. I'll take a closer look tomorrow.

I didn't explain myself well. I received an original, unmodified GE Dual 450MHz from the factory. All GEs accept duals; only the early Sawtooth models are incompatible. The CPU board seems defective, but I don't know how to find out what's wrong.

Hi, today I received a G4 Gigabit Dual 450MHz. When I press the power button, it turns on, but the power LED stays off, there's no chime, and it won't boot. I suspected the CPU and installed a Single 400MHz, and it booted up fine, with the power LED on, but no chime. I don't know if this is a...
