Re: My Ethernet Duel G4 want start after updating.
Dan, I wanted to thank you and all the Mac. Professor for their time and knowledge answering my questions. By being on the G4 list, I was able to buy a G4 Duel. MDD. and a LCD monitor. put in a second hard drive and everything works. peace to the forces. But another question, how can I boot up with the drive I want without using a external disk repair utility to select.

Re: My Ethernet Duel G4 want start after updating.
Dan, Peace And Health. I never resolved the problem below. I followed your advise with no luck. I picked up another G4 from eBay, a MDD G4 Duel. Question; can I take my 120gb harddrive from the GigG4 and put it into the MDDG4, or can I add my old HD. to the new machine and use both of them on the same machine?

I can hear it trying to start up but no video (monitor), no tone, just lights. Lack of bong is a total failure of the self-test - probably the PMU isn't running. So Peter's suggestion of replacing the PRAM battery is the first step. Odd that two machines would go down at the same time this way tho. What else happened?

Re: My Ethernet Duel G4 want start after updating.
Peace And Health, Dan Thanks for sharing your knowledge with me. They seem to power up, meaning the lights come on. I can hear it trying to start up but no video (monitor), no tone, just lights.

My Ethernet Duel G4 want start after updating.
Not one but two of my G4 machines started to display a static sound when starting up. This is after I downloaded an updated from apple. After the restart both machines stop working . They are not completely dead but no tone and no start up.
