Re: airport card on g4 500 sawtooth agp
A simple fix is just taking it out and putting it back, trying to go all the way in until it clicks. Also, make sure the antenna is all the way in. Airport cards are tricky that way.

Dirty lens is my first guess. Get yourself one of those DVD drive cleaning disks with the little microfiber brushes sticking up on it.

Re: Digital Audio DP467mhz worth upgrading, and how?
I would go ahead and hot rod it by maxing out the RAM and getting a processor upgrade. Or you could just buy a faster Powermac. I got a DP 800MHz Quicksilver from eBay for $40. On Sep 29, 10:32 pm, Jonas Ulrich jonasulrich3...@gmail.com wrote: There was no dual 667MHZ or 467MHZ according to mac tracker. There was a 466MHZ, 533MHZ, dual 533MHZ, 667MHZ, and a 733MHZ. Cool thing about these machines is that you can put a Quicksilver Processor in it, with one simply modification. I put a 733MHZ QS processor in a single 533MHZ DA and overclocked it to 800MHZ. It is happily running Leopard. Also, you can TOTALLY run Tiger on 256MB ram, I've run Tiger on 128MB of ram on a G3 iBook and it ran a little slow, but usable. The DA will take an airport card, but you are better off in every way possible getting a third party airport extreme compatible PCI card. I would work on the DA.

Re: Digital Audio DP467mhz worth upgrading, and how?
I second this. The Dual MDD 1.0 or 1.25 GHz are the sweet spot for performance. They can be had with 2GB memory (that's worth about $100) for the mid $100 range if you look, track recent sales and are patient. With no card upgrades, they only need a USB2.0 card (you want to sync an iPod on USB1.0? I think not.) They run Leopard nicely, and the only slow down I see is the video encode. My new Pro is 4-8X faster on video, but at 20X the price. I still run my G4 right next to it. I love that gal.

Re: Another Quicksilver Question
I have tried: DVD-RW (4.7 GB, doesn't show up at all) CD-RW (shows up as Empty. 650 MB) CD-R (4 show they has music on them, 1 is the one with pics on it. It doesn't show up) All are 700 MB. The one that I tell it to Ignore it says cannot be read by this machine Do you get the same errors with an external optical drive?

Re: Tiger won't ichat on G4 or G5 PPC's?
iChat works just fine on my system (Tiger, fully updated). It and Adium even talk at each other. You gots a hole in your firewall enabled for iChat Bonjour? You gots separate AIM or .Mac accounts for each login session? Have you tried trashing prefs and such? I have found that Tiger and iChat only work on G speed routers or a direct connection to the modem the Apple Airport Base Stations with G/ N speeds do work however I believe the Tiger iChat picks the G side of that device. The Leopard iChat works on all routers that I've had.
