Well, I reinstalled iChat from the Tiger DVD but the iChatAgent still hangs. Isn't the version on the iLife CD pre- 3.0 ?

Ok, I'll try to get hold of an iLife CD. Thanks.

Whenever I launch iChat, after a few seconds, the iChat Agent (as listed in Activity Monitor) becomes unresponsive. The result is iChat frequently dropping its connection and other, minor, irks. Anybody has encountered this problem too? How to re-install iChat ? I'm on Tiger (10.4.1) with...

Well yes, of course. However, one might have hoped to find something about the components they use.

Thank you all. Actually, I did overclock it once to 450MHz and ended up booting into Open Firmware. @naodx... I will try a hard drive jumper. Ah, and BTW, I've searched Apple's site over and over... nothing there. (It's normally the first place I look). ----- Take life easy, it's worth it :)

Well, I know you can push out the metal parts :) But what if one breaks ;) So, in order to spare me the trouble of pulling that thing out and hoping to get a new one, I just wondered what the specs are, so I can ask beforehand. (Turned out that not many shops have them anymore...)

Hi again ! As you'll know, on the PowerMac G4's(PCI graphics) logic board you can set the processor speed. That's done in the jumper block (J25). Now, I've been told the metal clips inside the jumper block are 'regular clips' used (or that were used) throughout the industry. Can anyone give...

Wow, didn't know that. Thank you. Now, I only hope that I could tell Toast manually to assume the disc to hold 800MB... (as it worked once <sigh>). Well, I'll keep trying to trick Toast into overburning :)

Guys, thank you all so much. Well, I've tried different CDs from the same pack but all show the same error. Finder burning is actually worse than Toast as it reports the disc to have '670MB' ! FirerStarter doesn't even recognize my drive (a Pioneer 105!). Funny thing is, I once managed to burn a...

I'm trying to burn a 800MB CD-R using Toast (as I succeeded once with Toast, burning a SVCD). However, there seems to be no way to have Toast recognize the correct size of the CD (it always indicates 700MB). I can't find where to set the size manually either. The Finder/DU don't correctly...

Thanks again guys. Well, after a number of attempts I finally got to dl a copy of Data Rescue. While it was able to find an impressive number of (even very large) files the, the one I was looking for seems to have been overwritten. Anyway, Data Rescue looks like a great tool, so thanks for the...

Thank you both. I'm currently awaiting Prosoft's eMail in order to download Data Rescue... We'll see how I'll fare.

Right, here it comes. Made a back-up of some files only to find afterwards that one was corrupted during back up. I deleted the original file on my HD. Now, Panther features journalling which I have enabled. Supposedly, that allows you to recover deleted items. Is that right, and if so, how do...

Yes, I know. I actually read that. The point is that *Panther* the most up-to-date Apple operating **still** doesn't work (whether Reuters would know or not). Very disappointing.
