What size is the hard drive?

I remember Jaguar doing that to me with my iBook when it had insufficient ram. Are you sure the ram actually works?

Yea actually, 384 MB to be exact...any ideas on what's going on? Reason is I want to update to Jaguar so I can use a USB Wireless (have one lying around) thought it'd be neat, nif…

Thing is, years ago, Jaguar worked fine on my Pismo (before it got stolen) so I'm stumped...is this a hardware issue? Hard drive issue? Compatibility issue? Click to expand... …

These forums are so great for help so here's a dilly of a pickle: I have a Pismo that I just got and initialized the HD and zeroed all data. I have a retail copy of Jaguar which I…

It might. I don't know what the + designates but here's some specs for the regular model. Model 3202 Video Adapter For Macintosh computers with external monitors. The Power R Mod…

I have a Power R video adapter that is for the Mac II and LC. I have a IIGS ROM 3 that is using an old color monitor IIe and was wondering if I can use this adapter to connect a VG…

I used a "molex" power connector to power up mine, which was very simple to wire up - and you could use either an ATX or AT power supply for this. The MacOS rumours link on making…

Is the ATX voltage to eMac logic board connector the same on the 700 MHz board as is documented on lbodnar's page? I keep seeing people who claim that they've got their 700 MHz bo…

Interesting theory, I'll have to check that out.

place a small (real small) magnet about 1.5 cm down from the top and 1 cm from the left side. (If you have the broken screen laying around you can find this magnet on the other si…

Don't think there's any way to do that in software. You could open it and unplug it from the logic board...

Hey, I've got a Tibook with no screen. When I try to output via DVI to my screen, it works, however it still thinks there are 2 screens(the external and internal) even though the …

IT'S ALIVE!!! All I know is that I put the battery back in and pressed the power button and it booted up. I don't know what happened. I don't care. Yayz.

Cut the minimum number of straps midway needed to do a binary search. Cut where the spot welds allow you to have relatively long liftable stubs. Good cells should accept a brief t…

Thanks all I've two dead Lombard PRAM batteries here, so with luck I'll be able to make up one decent battery. Jaycar sell a couple of potential replacement batteries too; one…

With prices the way they are, I would agree to get a G3 powerbook. Any pre-Pismo is going to be very affordable. Even the Pismos are not too bad. Edit: Actually I take back what…

Hear hear. I long had a cs before upgrading to the Lombard, and loved it. The screen is definitely a tad blurry though, so if you can find a c at a reasonable price, nab that. B…

OR trawl Battery World and Jaycar for a higher capacity, single 3V lithium cell, small enough to tuck away somewhere inside

Well, I'm happy to report that I'm posting this from my freshly-renovated Beige G3! I scrounged eBay and found a nice Rage128/16 card, a 500MHz G3/ZIF chip, and a set of overclock…

...which is completely dead... Click to expand... So see if one cell is shorted, eliminate it, then reconnect the remainder and try. Also, complete assemblies of unknown quali…

Hi, As per my Conquests post, I've built up one "good" Lombard Powerbook G3 from two, which is specced as: - 333 @ 433Mhz (did this once before, and it's rock solid yet again!), …

In answer to your initial question, yes! The 1400 is a great early PPC portable which is suitable for many retro tasks, and has the benefit of being able to run System 7, 8 and 9. …

1400s never came with a card installed at the factory. Apple made video and ethernet cards, as did NewerTech, but the only way to buy a 1400 brand new with a card was to buy from a…

No, no, they were completely different physically: the 5300 had a ~12x4cm card whereas the 1400 took a fairly square ~6x4cm card. Of course, they were the same electrically, more …
