Well, the problem is resolved, but I don't know why. I also posted my problem over on the Apple site, and got some answers, but nothing worked. I finally just decided to install Jaguar on a partition (OS 9.2.2 is on the other side) and see what happened. I've had 10.2 on there before, so I...

The Yikes model (PCI) doesn't need a firmware update. The DVD-ROM is a stock Apple drive that was originally in the Sawtooth (AGP). Just to check to see if the drive would boot a DVD, I put in my Jaguar DVD (grey system specific 10.2) for my TiBook, and it booted from that DVD right away. My...

Hi! I'm new to the forum, but not new to Macs. I'm having a problem, and I think I could be over looking something simple. I have a Desktop G4 PCI graphics, the "Yikes" model. I have run everything from OS 8.6 through OS 10.2.8 on this machine, separately and on partitions. A few months ago I...
