I just bought an SKD 3-port firewire card on e-bay after having lost my other card. Previous card was always plug and play and I thought there'd be little differnece but... The "new" one sorta shows...

So far, waking up everytime. My friend, who doesn't have this problem, needs to start-up in 9 periodically. Maybe that's why he's free of this same problem. ...

Spaz2, I have to admit I viewed your fix with suspicion, partly because I didn't read it well enough. So I finally tried it, simple enough. Amazingly, on the first X start-up the old, bad behaviour...

Unfortunately, there was NO insurance. Like total back-ups, that was something that was talked about, planned for (later) and left undone.

I've been taking the monitor apart and stood the tube on...

A fire destroyed most of the building my friend's office is in on Thanksgiving night. What wasn't burned suffered smoke and water damage. (Fortunately) my friend's G4 and upgraded 8600 were spared...

A friend of mine with a similar Wallstreet has had my problem but it went away after getting a new main battery, not the back-up battery. His theory is that the back-up battery is kept charged by the...

Is it really possible to start-up in 9 and go to OS X from there? I have considered whiping the HD and starting over with only 9. I'd like to use the machine for internet radio and MP3s. For that,...

I've got a 266 Wallstreet with OS X, 18gb HD and 384Mb RAM that was failing to light up the screen on start-up and would not re-light after sleeping. I think it was doing that even before I upgraded...

I had this exact problem with my G4 dual 500 and tried at least everything mentioned in the previous posts.

The solution was to replace the Adaptec 2906 SCSI card that I'm using for my Imacon...

Thanx for all the info.
last night, I used PowerControl to test my G4-500DP with PowerFrax running and all chips installed. Although it's been running OK lately, the report was 115,000 errors.
...

Just added 2 512mb PC100 chips to my G4Dual with 9.0.4 about 10 days ago. Everything seemed OK at first but lately I've been having freezes and stalls now that I'm using the machine heavily. The 1st...

At least it wasn't me. Thanks for the resource, I'll keep checking.

I found another site for the IxMicro Twin Turbo 4.0.6 software I needed but I think there are control panels, maybe an...

To add to my own query, I've relieved my problem somewhat by getting a Microsoft Trackball Explorer. It angles your hand and provides a resting place. Takes some getting used to but I don't miss the...

I can't gain access to your ftp site for some reason. You mention not using a user name or password but I get "access denied". Using Fetch 3.0.3.
Access through browser goes nowhere too.

Any...

I don't see any offers of ergonomically friendly keyboards. Any suggestions for the best designed way of avoiding that awful cramped up feeling I get after bending my wrists over the keys for the...

NOW it seems so clear. Thanks for the re-assurance. My 9500 seems to be doing fine. In fact, it seems to handle Nikon Capture software BETTER than my G4 500/dual.

Another Question...re: XLR8 MPe G4 450 switches for my 9500 with Miles 2, X15 Cheetah, 256 meg RAM, Ratoc dual usb/fw and 2 Apple video cards. XLR8 card came set with these switches ON: 1234-678----...

The 9500 that I just installed an XLR8 G4/450 into came with a Newer Tech DT351 M250/125 which I think they called the "MaxPowr Pro". It was working without software, although not very fast. I would...

Oh, and I put the card in the uppermost slot. Isn't that 1 of the 2 good ones?

Before getting your response, I put a jumper on pins 1 & 2 of J2 and have had no trouble since. SmartSCSI 1.03 reports firmware 1.05. I know I hit the button for "Update Firmware" early on without...

Installed the Bluenote in my 8500 last night and connected it to my narrow Barracuda, seems to be working fine. Then I installed the Miles2/Cheetah X15 in my "new" 9500. The card is recognized by the...

I'm thrilled at the possibilities of the Miles2 and X15 combination.

Would the Blue Note/Narrow drive improvement be significant enough in comparison to warrant doing? The narrow drive seems...

Much time has passed and many of my problems have diminished in severity. Hammer RAID seems to be no problem. I do think OS9.1 was a massive mistake on my part but I'm living with it for now. Bought...

Hawk jumpers have been returned to recommended by MM. No change. Disconnected JackHammer and machine now wakes from sleep. No crashes since, but it's early.
Ordered a G4 dual and will re-visit the...

I'm now getting system crashes during unattended Retrospect backups and non-wakable screens after sleeping so I've returned the Hawk to my original set-up. That doesn't seem to make any difference...
