Thanks for that info. How does one fix the power/analog/video board? Which item is that? While I've got experience with computers, this is my first imac I've pened up and am not sure which part that is. The 500mhz one does have the plastic bezel that I saw.

Hello all, Yesterday when replacing a hard drive in an old G3 350mhz iMac that I have, I pressed the power button on and I got nothing. No boot chime, no display, nothing. After checking the memory and cables were properly connected I tried again, but once more got nothing. The only thing...

Actually I solved the problem the other evening. Come to find out that the red wire from the case fan in the mac had gotten slightly cut and was touching the metal case causing everything to ground out. I taped the wire and all is fixed.

Hello all, I purchased a Quicksilver Dual G4 800mhz tower that was used but in very good condition and very working order. After about 3 weeks and a complete cleaning out/dismantling of the case I powered the system back on, and it worked. I used it for another week before I went to swap...

Unfortunately getting back the orginial ram can't happen. The reason it was so quickly needed was that my computer business (PC based) ran very low on inventory for memory and three customer computers needed memory upgrades. They are long gone by now. Where can I get certified, guaranteed...

Actually when I bought the PowerMac there was no PCI IDE adapter included in the powermac. At the time it had OS9.1 on it and OS9 worked great, I updated to OS9.2.2 after buying that from eBay. Finally I borrowed my friends retail (non machine specific) OSX 10.2 and 10.3 CDs to make sure the...

Yes I do, it's a Promise Ultra100 tx2 pci card that I inserted but it didn't resolve the issue. Or did I not do something correct?

It's an original medium.

Hello all, Previously I posted regarding having problems getting my Dual G4 450 system to boot OSX while it booted OS9 just fine. I spent more time doing researching and found that when watching the install disc (worked previously) is booting in verbose mode, it will hang with the message...

I even just this past week purchased 2 x 256 sticks of PC133 from Omni Technologies (Omnitechnologies.biz) to purchase memory that would be confirmed working with my powermac. Appearantly it was tested at the factory and all. When I put the memory in this morning, same symptoms. The mac...

Unfortunately I had already did that to no success. I even found a stack of older 64-128mb ram that I had in a drawer and I tested each one stick by stick to no success. Advice?

Hello all, I've had a PowerMac dual g4 450mhz in my office for quite some time. Mainly it's for learning OSX on to support clients that use OSX. Anyway last week I was in a shortage of PC133/100 memory for a client so I quickly scavenged the 4 SDRAM sticks of memory that was in my Mac...
