I couldn't get a ROM 03 into my Woz fast enough. Who cares if it's not original; that, some RAM, a Transwarp and an AE HD make it a wonderful little box.

My Quadra 700 does the exact same thing when booting 7.6.1. (Maybe other OSs but I haven't run any others in a long while.) It chimes, starts just enough to turn the CRT LED green,…

Too much paste is worse then none at all, even a little that gets stuck on the cache leads will short out a chip.

That's similar to what I was thinking when I asked about 32-bit clean. The dirty Macs had an extension which would cause the so-called "stutter start," which was expected behavior.

Lolwut? What do you mean it blew up? Pictures?

I wonder, but is it possible the system software doesn't have the correct or needed enabler for the CC? Depending on the system software version, was there ever an enabler require…

how did you manage that :?:

Thanks - turned out to be the thermal paste on the CPU. Bought some. Applied it. And then it blew up! So I'm consigning it to the great scrapyard in the sky xx(

The MaxxBoxx could do SMP if I recall. It would appear that Everymac agrees with me on this. They were sold primarily in Germany same as the system referenced by the OP.

Yeah. Without a working PRAM battery my PowerMac 6100 does the same thing. I actually have to press the power button twice in order for it to work. Then it will reboot itself and s…

The PRAM battery is definitely NO good. I am going to replace it and see what happens. Thanks.

2nd on the pram battery

I seem to remember some of the Woz editions shipped with ROM 01 boards. It looks like mine certainly did. Also, are there any real hardware differences between ROM 00 and 01 machin…

Is the PRAM battery good? JB

Is the Color Classic 32-bit clean?

If you use Safari, get ClickToFlash (http://rentzsch.github.com/clicktoflash/) - it has helped me immensely with the beachballs. Click to expand... Yes, that helps quite a bit…

"Or it could just be that your psu is a little low on one of the lines" - replace the power supply? Click to expand... or rebuild it

I acquired this baby a few weeks ago and it came with a stock CC logic board, 10 Meg of RAM, a 700 MB Qauntum drive, and an Asante PDS LC ethernet card in it. And it came with thi…

Have you changed the RAM, hard disk or PDS card? Maybe something is drawing a little more power than before. Or it could just be that your psu is a little low on one of the lines.

PRAM has been zapped. The hard drive has been reinitialized. It's a straightfoward clean install.

PRAM problem? Bad or weird partition on the disk?

When my Color Classic starts from a cold boot, this is what happens: 1. Upon powering on, the Mac startup chime immediately sounds. 2. The screen then lights up, followed by the …

These were 604- and 604e-based machines, not the 604ev-based one I referenced in the thread. (I tried but couldn't delete the duplicate thread, by the way, and am not sure where i…
