Thanks, Daniel.
No problem. I must admit, the best case scenerio your ram will work or just not.
'Why We Fight'
Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!
Thanks, Daniel.

With the power off, you can just check to see if the sticks physically fit in the sockets. That won't hurt anything and will eliminate a lot of research if they don't.
Or remove one of the existing sticks and see if they're the same--it'll minimise chances of damaging anything by trying to fit a little too eagerly.
Yeah, good ideas. I was actually planning on doing both of those things in the process, but I also wanted something better than just "try it and see what happens" if I got past those steps.
Can someone please ping REDACTED for me?
eta: nevermind.
I'm too lazy to search, but a while back, someone was having trouble installing Windows Media Player on a Mac?
I just had the same problem w/ my office Powerbook, and it turned out that the damn thing didn't have Stuffit Expander installed. After I downloaded and installed that, I was finally able to open the .bin file that Microsoft packaged the WMP installer in. (Pre-Stuffit, the Powerbook kept trying to open it with Excel, which wasn't going so well.)
Uhm, WMP for Mac isn't supported by Microsoft any more.
You should be using Flip4Mac which is a QT plugin.
Yup, what Tom said. I just wish Flip4Mac would release an intel version. Having to open Quicktime in Rosetta when i want to use it to watch a WMV file is very obnoxious (plus, way slow).
There's MPlayer for OSX
I use MPlayer for Linux and it works quite well, don't know how good it is for OS X, but it plays just about anything.
It won't play WMV9 files. Of this I am certain. I'm an mplayer (and mencoder) user from way back.
I have a friend (no really) who's desperately looking to ahem the last WW and isn't having any success. Has anyone got any leads? (You can email me, rather than linking here. )
Hello Tech!Buffistas
This would go in Press, but since I'm a lurker and this is techy, I thought it would be better to post here first ang get a yay or nay. I have a Powerbook G3 Firewire (Pismo) I'm looking to sell with an upgraded g4 550mhz cpu, upgraded dvdrom/cdr, and 768mb ram running os 10.3 along with all sorts of nifty software, but a dead battery and very slight damage to the LCD.
Is anyone here interested? Should I go ahead and post in Press or go back to lurking?
Email addy always good if I was lucky enough to pique interest.
