Can anyone tell me off the top of their head whether I can take an internal modem from a G4 tower and install it in a G3 Blue & White succesfully? Otherwise I will have to go off hunting obscure tech pages or worse still just try it and pray!!!
 
Depends upon the G4's motherboard. I can't remember the "names" given to the board but the first G4's that hit the market I do think used the G3 Blue/White's modem. The modem was long, slender with a (approx) one inch white connector on it.
The newer G4's have a completly different modem which could not be used.
Hope this info helps. [sig]<a href=mailto:ptswolfman@home.com>ptswolfman@home.com</a><br><a href= Online Certification Transcript</a><br>A+ Certified Technician with service certifications for Macintosh, Compaq, Toshiba, IBM, and HP[/sig]
