[QUOTE="hughvane, post: 979634, member: 56231"] Try [url=http://www.xlr8yourmac.com]Accelerate Your Macintosh![/url] for best advice about making your G4 hum. I think for example that you can put in a Sonnet or PowerLogix processor upgrade - but wait till you see the cost! Essentially, your situation is that 450 MHz is slow - very slow - by today's demanding standards. That software you're using 'expects' much more than your G4 can currently give. Mactracker recommends 10.4.11 as the maximum OS. RAM - you can go to 2 Gb under OS X. [/QUOTE]
