I doubt this applies but my powermac is a real pita about VGA too, if you start that machine up without a monitor plugged in it defaults to the tv out, which means you gotta hook i…

So my Performa 6214 won't output video to my VGA screen. I know this adapter is good and it worked intermittentley on another screen, the screen I am trying to use is a 15" 1024x76…

Dude, let me take an inventory on my vintage stuff. Since I am downsizing my 68k/early-PPC stuff, I may end up having more adapters than I really have use for. I'm getting to the…

I'm sorry to say the orange goes faster. It also looks better. //wthww

Good Luck! Let us know how it goes!

I have the 840avs now. Well... They are sitting in the kitchen. However, at this point they are useless since i have no adapter for the video, neither a monitor to use it with. I…

The Powertoggle works with a normal slot adapter and AV video card, but not with my Sonnet upgrade card and the same video card. It chimes fine with the Sonnet card, but I get no …

Thanks for the responses. I had seen a bunch of those webpages when searching myself, but it is a comfort to be redirected to them by people who know more and still trust the webs…

A little tip - if you're going to keep it running System 7.1 after you install the LC575 logic board, make sure that you've placed a copy of the System Enabler 065 into the System …

Somehow I'm pretty sure I managed to score a working LC575 motherboard with an ethernet card onboard, and it is supposed to arrive in the mail later this week! It has been a dream …

On a PowerBook 160 that I have been playing with this morning, I noticed, to my surprise, that if I turn off the 16 greys and set the Monitors Control Panel to display in B/W only,…

I have an 840av in nearly stock config, paired to an AudioVision display, which although "for" the x100 powermacs, works fabulously if you've got the correct adaptor. I tried 7.6.…

I want a red one, cuz red goes faster

Sounds like either the thread is all chewed up in the hole on the front panel, or else the screws are out, its just friction on the back panel stopping them falling out. To tell th…

So, I'm trying to get into my Classic II to install some RAM. I have a T-15 driver that will reach the silver screws under the handle. I can take a flashlight, shine it into the …

Seems like a good trade to me. I've always liked the 840AV's and in particular the nice compact case style which has alwaysd struck as both cute and elegant at the same time. Th…

If I had two working examples (I do happily have one), I would pop in a 68-pin scsi and Nubus Jackhammer, and install MacOS 8.1 on one of the machines. A Nubus card like the Spigot…

Oh man, I meant to say AdoptAMac.com was the site. Not We Love macs. Forgive me, I dunno where I got that from. EDIT: I meant to also say that I was getting the 840avs from Chri…

Keep one as the parts machine. We Love Macs was cheaper? Thats..... weird. (we need a raised eyebrow emotican) Click to expand... actually, since the adapter would do greater …

"der PoewrMAClone in der Box" - I like that

I like them both, personally. As for the "Teardrop" mice (Apple Desktop Bus Mouse II), I find that the older ones have a better click to them...probably because the newer ones have…

Am I OK to assume that my problem is there and that this computer won't see more than 2GB anytime soon, not even multiple 2 GB partitions? Click to expand... 1. Mac OS is not r…
