Mac OS 9.x will run on a 6100, but is tricky to install. You need a retail install CD (ie a full generic install disk, not a model specific disk) and to boot from the CD. You can't…

You'd be much better off running OS 8 or even 9 on it. (assuming you have the RAM for the latter) Click to expand... The 6100 tops out at 8.6.

Just to clarify one point of confusion in this thread: (quotes to follow) I found this article on Apple web site: http://support.apple.com/kb/TA28860 Am I OK to assume tha…

It would depend on the system software in particular, and possibly the monitor also. There is occasionally a need for considerable fiddling over this, for some reason, so if you do…

maybe because I have not thought about it before? Is there a problem here? anyway my initial question was about the maximum capacity HD of the 6100, not about formating. In anycas…

Maybe a refresh rate needs changed?

It's something that happens IIRC, so don't panic just yet I think there is a simple solution... Can't remember the solution off the top of my head...

Video cable is plugged into the connector on the motherboard...

I got a powerbook G3 lombard here, and its dead as dead can be dead..... Here was the issue. some kind of liquid was spilled in it, and immidiately he pulled the power and battery…

Are you using a video card?

Trying to get said machine on line, and the one problem is that the video image on the monitor is offset to the right by about an inch and a half. I know it's not the monitor, beca…

Ah jt, good to see you getting back to your old mischief :b&w: I'll be watching with interest, but you knew that

Never actually seen a lime or tangerine iMac in real life... oddly enough those would be my first choice after graphite. Click to expand... Wow, my very first Mac was a Lime 26…

The G3 card works *sometimes* in the 7300. I have a 604e in it right now, and you have to press the power button, wait a few second, toggle the power again, before it will show vid…

You have a 9500, does the G3 card work in it? If it works well there then it's likely a problem with your RAM, motherboard or possibly power supply. If it doesn't work all the time…

OOPSIE! Forgot to mention the purpose of these shots. Most of the MLA must be scratching their heads and muttering What the . . . :?: In some other threads a few of us were…

Let me know if you need another G3 DaughterCard. I have one for $15 + Shipping I would be willing to send you. Cheapest shipping of course. Already has 400Mhz G3 in it, and has …

I now have a little collection of tray loaders! The Strawberry(pink) Imac is working well, I bumped the ram to 256mb, I use it on the net for a few days and then hitch up the Lime…

I think this is one of the more uncommon colours from the flavour era. Click to expand... I have 2 pink ones, 1 Indgo 1 Blue berry I think the pink ones are more popular

That would explain it. I will confirm it if it works. Right now I am just letting it sit for a couple of weeks before I start to clean and tinker.

Even the 1987 Mac II used a temperature-responsive fan. Clear the dust and blockage away, and that might make the fan throttle down.

Looks like an Inwin case with a custom motherboard tray (they slide out completely so you can put in the motherboard and cards then mount it).

The Mac II and IIx used one version of the PSU; the "real" IIfx used a revised version (with variable speed fans?). Part numbers are:661-0375 Power Supply Mac II, IIx 120watt 661-…

While the G5 can still be useful, there's already an OS and software it won't run. The Mac Mini is faster than his G5. The MacPro of course would be a lot better but it's 4 times t…
