Hi, I am using a G4 Quicksilver with built-in ethernet port. In oder to hook this G4 to my Wifi network, I have bought a D-Link DWL-G810 WLAN adapter, that picks up the Wifi signal and passes it on to the G4 using ether net. The G4 says it is connected to the ethernet. The Wifi network...

Thanks Nixgeek and ElDiabloConCaca; the PMU reset button worked. G4 is buzzing again and I am happy again. (BTW: did plug in the Mac first and than the power outlet: by chance, not by design. Thanks for that bit of info. Why is that?) I traced the problem down to the 6-gang surge protection...

I am turning an old Power Mac G4 Quicksilver into a media server. This G4 came with a CD player only, so I have installed a Pioneer DVD player drive (DVR-109). I run OSX 10.3.9, 867Ghz, 1.1GB. The basic install I have does not have the Apple DVD player s/w installed. Where can I get it? - or...
