Re: Video Card Upgrade Info Please
It is actually an okay-ish card. if you want something that doesn't go slow, this is a good choice. Don't rely way too heavily on this, because it's only 128MB of video RAM. On a scale from 1 to 10, it is a 4. I am going to get my Nvidia GeForce 6200 GT card with 256MB of VRAM flashed to my sawtooth. Basically, the more memory you can get to work on the video graphics on your mac, the better. If you want regular and no intensive heavy tasks, then a 128MB video card would do fine. If you want something just twice as serious, get something like i did. On a scale from 1 to 10, my Nvidia GeForce 6200 performs like a 10, with all of the smooth graphics. (Don't forget people, a new MBP ships with 256MB of video RAM standard, so 256MB of Video RAM is good!) Unless you can get really lucky and find a video card with 512MB of VRAM on an AGP slot. -- Sent from my Power mac G4 Sawtooth. -- 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: G5 iMac
Agreed. 25C=77F and 50C is pretty normal from what I gather, 122F. Makes no sense that the inside of any device is not quite above room temp.

After some googling it appears that the only use of hydrogen in a cooling system is in turbogenerators.

Re: dvd's but no cd's? what's up with that?
I bought a used pioneer DVR-106PB (apple branded) on ebay last month I tried a dvd on it when I got it and thought it was fine? but I just today tried to get a cd to mount and for some reason it won't? bad drive? or not. Is it in the PM G5? Yes... it is. Jeff I had this happen on a PM G4 a while ago I'll tell you what I did to fix it and I sure can't say why.

I also got a new wireless board and magic mouse today too, maybe there's a glitch in the wireless stuff... belkin bluetooth module? hmmm You have some of the PPC Leopard voodo I ask about sometimes, Like Disk Utility Restore feature not working in 10.5.8 on PPCs G5 and G4?? But it sure works in 10.4.11. AFAIK the Pioneer 188L drives walk on water that's what I have in all my machines and externals. I do have a problem with two FW ports in my PM G5 the one on the front panel and one in the back, The 800 FW works fine. The deal with the drawer closing to get it to read is what I run into sometimes on the externals, nothing to worry about. To be sure I would reinstall 10.5.8. Leopard is not as stable in the PPCs I don't care what others say I know it because my PMs are dual boot and when the chips are down with the opticals burning and ripping I seem to save the day with Tiger. But I really like Toast 10 and it only runs in 10.5.
