Hmmm... That's not going to be easy unless you have an 8100/80 to look at. The multiplier on the 100 and 110 MHz machines is three, so if you change the oscillator to 40 MHz, the C…

Calling all experts... Has anyone of you ever done this or have any inside info on how to do it? What I would like to do to the above mentioned machines is: 1. Install 40 MHz os…

...AND I spoke too soon. I went to open up a help menu to reconfigure my Favorite keys and I'm getting bomb errors.. AGAIN. After initializing the disk and doing a clean installati…

How to test the power supply: 1. Turn on the Mac IIfx. 2. Set your volt meter to 20V range DC 3. Touch the black probe to a pin of the power supply connector that is connecte…

2. I also tried to boot from the hard drive the was in my SE (it had System 6.0. 8) , also a no go. I didn't even hear it spin. Click to expand... AHA! Your +12V is bad! We no…

Ok got some testing done, not good news. 1. AfterMAc's drive is good (tested on my SE), but the IIfx just gives me a disk with an X when I plug it in and try to boot from a disk (…

Ooo... just sent an email. I work in Ann Arbor.

For anyone interested here's a link to a Lemswap post for a free 128K Mac, upgraded to a 512K. NOT my sale. http://groups.google.com/group/lemswap/browse_thread/thread/4e81c78c9e…

Actually I swapped the chips out of a dead Superdrive unit so it should function as a 1.44MB drive. Tempest Click to expand... Even better!

I think it would be more interesting to convert it to USB (same thing, just new chip which can be found pretty much everywhere) course I think old keyboards on new systems are jus…

I'd like to thank everyone for their help, I finally got around to messing with the iBook again. I did what you said Phreakout, but Stuffit still wouldn't open. First Disk Aid sai…

I'll crack open my spare SE tonight. Not only does it have two floppy bays (which means I won't have to take the other one out), it also has a good working HD installed. I can kil…

Notes towards that approach can be found here and here

I'll try that tonight and see if it helps any. Maybe it will stop chirring and fire up.

Anyway, my question is--have I destroyed my Plus by chipping the metallic coating? What are the consequences of running the machine with compromised shield/paint stuff? Has anyon…

The install of phpBB we're using here is completely stock, aside from some tweaks to the templates. We're using reCAPTCHA on the registration page (which is an option as of 3.0.6, …

Thank you!

My guess at this point would be a lack of power to the drive. You should be able to hear it do *something*. Click to expand... The drive must be receiving +5V because of the X …

Slapping and spanking never helped me much with the BabyPB, what I always did when I had intermittent stiction problems with one of them was to set it up on a hard surface, (back l…

Sorry for the lag, I was away from my workstations this weekend. The second image you posted, Tron, works fine. Here are the numbers: CINEBENCH 2003 v1 **************************…

OIC. Then you can just pick the hosts out of the list and whitelist? That actually sounds more manageable. If that's what you mean, I like that idea even better. FTR, NoScript is …

Right, the Blueberry is finished, with 10.4.11 on a 10gb hard drive and the USB wifi dongle. Taking apart and upgrading etc took far less time than before, just a couple of hours..…
