yeah, the case on the other one is really beat up, so I might as well swap in the mobo. But the power board on the other one is loose, so I have to hold in the power plug.

Hi guys. I have my pride and joy, 300mhz 14" wallstreet PDQ, and I figure it's time to resurrect it to see if I can. IIRC, it has a problem with the fan staying on, from the time I…

Not sure whats going on because my iBook G3 before it died worked just fine and it has the same video card.

I hate to say it, but it sounds like that one's past doing too much with, apart from stripping for parts...I'd look around for another 1400, working, and keep that one for parts. A…

Nvm, talked to derekat(Idk if any of you remember him but he used to post here before the crash) and he said try it without the hard drive, tried that, it worked, tried different j…
It turned on before but the hard drive was dead, swapped the hard drive, tried turning it on but it doesn't do anything. I hear the CRT have a slightly high pitch noise, so it's g…
Here's a question for which I have not found the answer:
The Apple II, as you should know, has some soft-switches, memory locations which cause some setting to change. My question …
I downloaded that PDF a few months ago but haven't read it yet. Maybe I should do that.
