You wouldn't be able to run it on 512MBs of RAM anyways. ;) ???

I believe you're thinking of the 'Radeon Mac Edition', or '7200'. Because AFAIK, the 7500 was never available in PCI flavor for the Mac. The final Radeon PCI offered for the Mac by ATi was the 9200. Aside from the 7000, there's also the original ' Radeon Mac Edition/7200'. It was the first...

IT'S ALIVE!!! All I know is that I put the battery back in and pressed the power button and it booted up. I don't know what happened. I don't care. Yayz.

...why?

Definitely an excellent conquest. :D

Negative; It's a P4G533

Must be nice to have an AGP slot in your PC. :'(

Mac Edition? If it's Mac Edition (ADC), it's a 4600. And assuming it is a Mac Edition; nice score. :cool:

Not the baddest piece of machinery on earth, but a friend unloaded a Pavilion 505w on me; 2.4GHz Celeron 512MBs of RAM (2GB system max) 80GB Seagate DVD-ROM/CD-RW combo drive An ASUS mATX board that's lacks AGP, but has 3x PCI available. I may throw some more RAM in there or use the fact...

Yeah, already did that. :( The machine has been sitting unplugged in the corner for the better part of a week and I didn't put the PRAM battery back in until tonight. Man, I really don't wanna have to chuck a 9600. One of my favorite machines ever.

Well, I removed the Radeon, ZIF Carrier and PRAM battery and held down the CUDA for around 10 seconds three times over. Nothing. And Cmd-Opt-P-R still wont take. Which is the most confusing thing of all to me.

I went over the board very closely a few days ago looking for missing resistors or busted batteries/caps; nothing. :-\ And yeah, I definitely wish I still had some original parts. But I threw away nearly all of my Mac junk earlier this year when I was convinced that my days of playing with old...

You're very lucky. The G3 700s have actually become sought after due to their rarity. They go for a good bit on eBay.

The original CPU is long gone. I also don't have the original hard drive and in fact don't have one installed at the moment. And I'm using the stock Apple SCSI CD-ROM. Hadn't thought to try blind booting from a disc yet though. May have to try that tomorrow. And I've been through more video...

Sounds like your 9500 caught something from my 9600. :p

I've got the machine mostly torn down now and am leaving it for a while as I don't have the time to play with it endlessly at the moment. Hopefully a timeout will help. As far as I knew, the only way to do a PMU reset was to hold down the reset switch for 20~ seconds. But is there a CUDA...

I'm relatively new by registration date, but I already like this board a great deal. I think there are excellent members here who make for excellent conversation and excellent information sharing. I exclude you from that list though. You're incredibly rude to me and have been numerous times. An...

No offense, but I get the impression you're not reading my posts. I've made it clear since my original post that I'm running with a minimum hardware configuration and have been from the start. I've also made it clear that I'm not getting a video signal; it is, in fact, the entire reason for...

Hmm... Interesting development. I decided to fiddle around with the machine again today; I reset the CUDA a few times, and eventually wound up moving the Radeon to slot D2. And... presto! Sorta. I now get chime and video signal, but the signal is lost within a second or so and my monitor goes...

Man, you two must be brothers or something... He specifically bolded times, as if to say that I posted the messages 39 minutes apart, ignoring the date. If bumping a thread in the 25th hour is against some kooky rule that exists here and only here, I'm sincerely sorry... You two are a hoot...
