There's so many groups that I really don't know which one to pick. Some time ago I bought a Mac Mini Core Dual, and so far I had no problems.

Now I'd like to know what's going on there, and if later versions would work again with my 10.6.8 and Firefox 29.0.1, so if you know a nice and active group for that, let me know! The only two Core Duo Mac mini models that Apple ever marketed are by now about 8 years old. Any problems with those are not typical of other Intel Macs.

Well in the last 2 weeks I had this with a QS'02 and a MDD. Had this never before. I was checking all: PS, PRAM-bat, connections etc., and all OK, when one of my grandsons (he is 9 yrs old and I'm 68 haha!) said: Hey Opa (= dutch for granddad) your Macs are dustbunkers! I looked and he was right!! Being curious, I first restarted both Macs while watching what would happen. I used iStatPro in Dashboard to observe the tempartures of the HD's (I have 3 in both). And I saw following: After 96 minutes the SU-disk of the MDD came to 61 degrees C and the MDD shut down. After 128 minutes the SU-disk of the QS came to 64 degrees C and the QS shut down. Then I totally cleaned both an restarted them. Now they are both running already for 3 days + without any inclination to power down! Perhaps an idea for you also! Try it, because it will never hurt anything but will help possibly!

Re: Quicksilver won't boot into target disk mode

Eventually I had it running with no problems, did all software updates and it ran happily for a couple of days. I then turned it off and came back to it after another couple of days, and again it wouldn't start, although after about twenty tries it booted all the way and ran fine. It now seems fine , starts first time and runs with no problems. ( running 10.4.11 with 768MB memory BTW) . I have added a USB2 card and a SCSI card both of which it recognised immediately, and replaced the optical drive with a DVD burner which works OK. However if I try starting it in Target Disk Mode it immediately turns off!. I have tried doing this from system preferences, and by pressing T when starting, with the same result. The firewire bus seems fine: I have surfed with it by sharing my connection with my G4 iMac over a FW lead with no problems and also used an external FW DVD drive, before I changed the optical. Does this G4 support TDM? IIRC some of the G3 powermacs didn't? Regards, Dan. First try to start up in Safe Boot Mode (Press Shift during startup) and report what happens.

Re: Adapter for the OLD Monitors with use with VGA card.

Never seen where they went the other way around though. Well, I strongly believe you mean the topic How do I run an old monitor on sawtooth started by Brian Christmas on Nov. 17, 2008. He was looking for such an adaptor, but couldn't find it in Australia. At that time I had several of these laying around and only one still in use (and even till now to connect a ColorSync 20-inch to a VooDoo-3 in my PM 9699/350). Till around 2 yrs ago I used 2 of these adaptors to connect 2 ColorSync's 20-inch to a Sawtooth. Never had/have any problems. Well and after sending one to Brian Christmas he told me the adapter also works well with him. I know they are hard to find now. But last week I saw still several in a small local (Amsterdam, NL) Apple Service Station. They sell them for € 15 (= US$ 21,85 today). And perhaps I also have still one in my Old Mac Mass.

Coatings on glass are NOT the same as polycarbonate plastic, which is what I think the LCD screen surface is made of. More to the point, I've used these for quite some time on my lcd screens with no damage, so empirically, I know these work. Also that advice is really weird from a chemical standpoint, because denatured alcohol has some much less polar chemicals in it (the denaturing part) and isopropyl is only slightly less polar than ethanol.

According to apple the pram will only hold a 3-5 hour charge without being plugged in and without a main battery preset. Sorry, but I don't believe that for I no-where can find an Apple document saying that. And my 18 yrs of exp. with Apple Notebooks is different. F.e. I have a Kanga (first PB G3) in my kitchen. Has a dead main battery and is only connected to the wall when in use. Yesterday I used the Kanga after being unplugged and without a main battery for 8 days!! Date and time showed up correctly!! So I strongly believe you are mixing up the (unplugged) lifetime of the main battery (3-5 hours is normal) and the lifetime of the PRAM battery (normally several years)! For the rest: Switching down the PRAM battery after 3-5 hours would be a redicoulus construction! And besides that, it would include a time-switch and I never have heard of or seen such in any personal computer! So I would say read my answer before again and give it a try. In case of doubt use a battery-tester (under US$ 15) or let it it test by a prof. techn. Using a voltmeter only is useless! Otherwise I woukd say, please tell us where you got that Apple wisdom saying: the pram will only hold a 3-5 hour charge without being plugged in and without a main battery preset.

Re: GeForce FX5200 In Sawtooth
On 18-10-2008 23:57, Simon Royal, [EMAIL PROTECTED], wrote: With both cards installed (and the monitor hooked to the ATI card) the machine will not get any further than the grey apple screen. I tried it without the AGP card installed and it boots as normal. Any ideas? Hello Simon, A very old trick, mostly working (at least when booting in 9.2.2) on Macs of the Sawtooth generation and before: Just connect a videocable or a single converter to the AGP card and try again. One of my archives-Macs, a Sawtooth/450 has the original AGP (ATI Rage 128 Pro) and 2 PCI (ATI Rage 128) out of a Yikes and 3 monitors oc. When I sometimes need the monitor connected to the AGP (to check a Mac for a client or so), I simply connect a VGA - Mac connector to the AGP. Works OK.
