Re: iLife 08 on 933mhz PM QS
Thanks everyone. After trying several different things I have decided to throw in the towel. My old iMovie 1.0 from the original Quicksilver install disks works fine for what I use it for and actually runs under Leopard. It was the other applications especially iPhoto that I needed which is why I bought iLife 08 anyway. I just wanted to try this to see if it would work for kicks more then a need to get it working and it is going nowhere so I will stick with what I have. :-) Thanks anyway.

Re: iLife 08 on 933mhz PM QS
If you want to trick the installer into thinking you have a PowerPC G4 processor with some serious processor speed, follow this: (This is going to mod this info on open firmware until you restart telling the Mac OS X system that you have a faster processor when in reality you don't to fool the installer.) restart your mac, and press and hold COMMAND+OPTION+O+F If you have a single core PowerPC processor use these following commands: dev /cpus/PowerPC,g...@0 d# 20 encode-int " clock-frequency" property boot Those commands will fool the installer into thinking you have a 2.0Ghz PowerPC G4 processor. For PowerPC G5 processors or G3 processors, replace the line where it says "dev /cpus/PowerPC,g...@0" to your processor type "dev /cpus/PowerPC,g...@0" or to "dev /cpus/PowerPC,g...@0", depending on your processor type. For dual core cpu's, type in this: dev /cpus/PowerPC,g...@0 d# 25 encode-int " clock-frequency" property dev /cpus/PowerPC,g...@1 d# 25 encode-int " clock-frequency" property boot This command will fool the installer into thinking you have a dual core 2.5Ghz CPU.

Re: Beige G3 Upgrade Questions
I don't think I saw this mentioned already. You should be able to find a recent DVD drive with a beige front and no gaudiness. Right now, I'm looking at the front of my Pioneer DVR-112L 16X drive, and it's beige, with things like "DVD" and "RW" etched on it very inconspicuously. It's also very good at reading scratched discs that its predecessor (a 12X Pioneer) had much more trouble with. Competent drives like this are inexpensive, and will save you a lot of trouble and aggravation. For one thing, it will read DVD+R's, which older drives won't, because Apple once used drives that were older than the DVD+R standard. You can always move it another machine, too, so you'll get your money's worth out of it. -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.

Re: iLife 08 on 933mhz PM QS
Well it is amazing what saving the install file to the HDD and a hex editor will do. It is installing as we speak without complaint.
