New Graphics Card?

2004-10-19 Thread Doug Wilson
I've got a 2x1.25GHZ MDD G4 with an ATI Radeon 9000 Pro. Problem is I want
to run Motion on it. Can anyone suggest a place in WA to order or buy a
Motion compatible video card? Retailers, please email me at
[EMAIL PROTECTED] with prices. Thanks.




CD DVD labels

2004-10-19 Thread Lloyd White
I saw in the Viking catalogue an add for a CD/DVD labelling system called
afterBurner (sounds like a bad wine). It is, of course, only for PC
according to the add.

Is there a similar product, software and applicator, that anyone can
recommend. Either commercial of shareware. I want to use my own photos on
the label.

TIA

[FS] Athlon64 setup (I know I'll get flamed for this!)

2004-10-19 Thread Rod

Hi All!

I can feel the burn from the keyboard already, but I have a high end PC for 
sale.  Here are the specs:

AMD 2800+ Athlon64 (about 1.8Ghz, translates to 2.8Ghz on PIV)
512Meg RAM DDR400
140Gig total HD Space (40+120 SATA+20)
DVD-ROM/CDRW Combo Drive
Gigabyte K8NSNXP Pro Board
http://www.gigabyte.com.tw/Motherboard/Products/Products_GA-K8NSNXP.htm
FireWire 400 and FireWire 800
8 USB 2.0 Ports
2 Ethernet Ports (1x10/100 1x10/100/1000)
NVidia 5700XT VIVO 256Meg graphics card
Soundblaster Live
VisionPlus Digital TV Tuner
WindowsXP and SuSE 9.1 64Bit Pro Linux installed
Sony Trinitron 17 display thrown in.
Belkin Wireless Keyboard and Mouse
(I may have some other goodies to throw in too)

Might be an ideal Linux box for some, especially since the CPU is true 64bit, 
and the version of Linux that comes with it has been recompiled for 64 Bit 
(as all the software).  Good test box for cross platform developers, great 
gaming box, or a cheap way of getting into 64bit computing.

I'm looking for $1400 or best offer for the setup.  The components are all 
high quality stuff, not cheapy all in one boards or cobbled Semperon 
processors (its a Socket 754 board, not Socket A).

Seeya

Rod!

Hi Lloyd

If you've got Toast Titanium (Version 5 or 6) there is a program that comes
with it called Magic Discus that lets you print to CD. It is very good.
Otherwise you can also download a program called DiscLabel (I think that's
it) from VersionTracker which also does a good job.

I use Magic Mouse Discus (part of Toast) and find it very easy to work with.

Hope that helps!

Kind Regards
Daniel

Hi Lloyd,

If you hadn't mentioned applicator too I'd have advised getting any 
labels and mocking up a template yourself in any application hat will 
allow you to import your graphics. BUT since you also want an 
applicator a trip to OfficeWorks and you will find packs of label 
stationery with software and applicator, unfortunately the Imation 
'beatbox' of CDs, labels, software and applicator are no longer 
available.


Personally I would avoid Viking, for a company owned by OfficeWorks the 
price differences are ridiculous.

Hello Lloyd,
I have a folder full of Word Templates for CD  DVD covers that I got 
from somewhere on the web.
I can email them to you if you wish, but they constitute over 6 MB so I 
think DSL would handy. I am on DSL so it' s no problem for me.

CommPost: Zytech specials

2004-10-19 Thread Zytech - your online data and technology store

Hi all!

Ever had a CD/DVD stuck in your drive? Well, hopefully the following
information may help you get over this frustration:

Ok, so you've tried the keyboard eject key, the Command-E keyboard
combination, you've selected the item in finder and clicked the eject
button next to it, tried dragging it to the trash and tried pressing
the F12 key?  Time to reach for that stress ball!!

First of all, make sure the disk is not busy, and make sure that files
on the disk are not in use. Be patient and try it again after a few
moments. Another method is to use Disk Utility, located in
Applications/Utilities. Just select the volume you want to unmount and
click Eject. Another quirky way of possible getting that disk out is to
hold the mouse button down at startup, sometimes this works in getting
that disk out of hiding.

Lastly try this, go into Terminal (Applications, Utilities) and type:
'drutil tray eject'. The command 'drutil' gives you other options,
while 'drutil list' will give you a list of currently connected
removable devices. The drive will be assigned a drive number so you can
try the following command as well 'drutil tray eject 1' where '1' is
the number assigned to the drive your trying to eject.

For this newsletter specials, we've got the fantastic 200GB Firewire
external drive for $325, a saving of over $30. Hurry in for this
special as stocks are limited, click on the following link and select
the drive.

PM G4 OS9.1 to iBook G4 OS10.3

2004-10-19 Thread Rick Armstrong
Dear Members,
Trying to connect PowerMac G4 Tower OS9.1 to iBook G4 0S10.3 without
success.
IBook has Quicktime Firewire Enabler version 2.3
PM has Firewire Enabler version 2.8.1
Only result is that iBook starts up with floating large T icon when holding
down T key
to activate Firewire Target Disk Mode but no hard disk showing on other
computer.
No result with PowerMac G4 starting up when holding down T key
to activate Firewire Target Disk Mode. (I was advised to update from 8.6 to
9.1)
Any replies welcome.
