Blu-ray drive

Hy Tallest Skill, on your flikr pictures, there is not one from the front of the MAC PRO, once you've installed this drive, also the stuff that you removed is the front plate of the MAC or the cover plate from the drive? this will be clarified if you post the picture. Thanks and congrats
 
The front of the Mac Pro is exactly the same - he did post a picture with it after installation. There's another one where he describes what he had to do with the Blu-ray drive to get it to open.

Yep, I finally got it. Last Thursday, actually, but I wasn't home until two days ago.

Virtually done with manually porting my files and setup, but there are a few things with which I'm still having trouble.

iTunesesque Illuminous scroll bars (using the Extras2.rsrc file): I can't get this to apply.

Windows 7 64-bit audio drivers: Anyone know which ones are correct?

I'll probably think of some more.

Here's a preliminary Flickr photostream. It isn't in its proper location right now; this is just a temporary setup.

Let me know what you guys think!

To those who want to ask: Yes, OS X natively recognizes both Blu-ray and HD DVD disks (and labels them as such), empty and with content, but cannot play the files.

And yes, the stock 4870 and GT 120 run at 5 GT/s. Did you guys (flashers) ever figure out why third-party ones only run at PCIe 1.1 speeds?

Have you try bootcamp windows with this setup? Im trying to run both GT 120 and ati 4890 ( only bootcamp ) and im only getting signal from the GT 120, i want in windows to run 4890m any ideas?

Here's a quick iPhone picture of the state of the Blu-ray/HD DVD drive after prying that front panel off.

And another random one of CPU Monitor during a Terragen 2 render.

Well, it turned out he had a bit of a potty mouth and poor manners at times.

And let me think, what did his avatar look like?

A brown ant head kinda thing similar to.....similar to..... the guy who just exhumed this thread from the past. hmmmmm....

This has been noted before, Jav's tar is in relation to Star Wars IIRC, and it's just pure coincidence that it's the same, also, Jav has been here long before TS was banned.

As much as I would like to share your theories, my avatar is not the disuseion here. Although, I'll try and see if I can get an update.
