Uncommon but not really valuable as they can't do anything but what they were intended.

RAM can go flaky suddenly, though it's rare. Best memory test seems to be one called rember. You should also check the battery voltage, since if it's low that can lead to all sorts…

Cool are those valuable?

The RTClock / calendar / PRAM chip has its own 32KHz crystal. Everything else runs off the "16MHz" clock. If you don't care about serial baud rates, floppy read / write, or video s…

Its a DVD decoder daughter board.

OK It powers on. No RAM on me so I can't test it.

It is an Apple branded card with a 1998 date.

if it is on the ATI card it is probably for DVD playback unless the ATI card is an AIW with capture.

It has no other inputs though, it just is piggybacked onto the ATI 16MB Card. So now I am home and am going to power it up. I'll take a pic of the card for you.

The classic/II seem to be difficult to find info on. When I was killing mine I could not find too much info. Click to expand... Contrary to Mars478 post, Larry Pina's Mac Class…

actually the fix was the easiest thing ever.....the metal tab that is use to push down the on/off button on the bottom near the optical sensor was squished down!!!! a little bendin…

C-Cube made video compression chips, might be a video capture card (have any pics?).

So is that fast? If the Macally keyboard is still there when I am going back I will snag it. And I will strip the iMac as well of the Ram and (Hopefully!) Airport card. If I had a…

[EDIT] OK here are the specs from the back of the machine, 400MHZ, 256MB (None there but I have some RAM), Modem, 9GB U2SC (?), Keyboard, DVD, ATI Rage 16MB. Click to expand... …

The fan should not be loud. It sounds like the fan has become un-lubricated. ~ A year later it started up again so I just lubricated it myself. Anyway... lubricate the eMac fan, …

Seems like a RevB to me, I'll be able to stuff it with HDs and use it as a file server for my InsanelyWind projects. I can make a 68Kmla account on the FTP part of it if people wa…

Sounds like a problem with the mouse. You should return it or see if any other bluetooth device pairs with the iBook.

The classic/II seem to be difficult to find info on. When I was killing mine I could not find too much info.

A circuit diagram for the analogue board of the Mac Classic would be a great help in tracing voltages. I can find one for the Mac SE on the web but not the Classic. Any suggestion…

mouse update: i found out something strange.....if you hold down the mouse button while its off and the light turns on then you open the cover then the connection comes back!!! bu…

Just found this on the way to a shoot. In Brooklyn I found on curb a powermac g3 in fair condition. It has 2 HDs and 1 is scsi. It has no RAM but like 2 SCSI Cards. There's also a …

The fan should not be loud. It sounds like the fan has become un-lubricated. The same thing happens to Power Macintosh 6500 CPU fans, and the really small fans on certain ATI Vide…

I still have my BeigeG3MT and I will have it for many years to come as far I know right now. It's not my daily driver - it is my link to the past. Some of us here romanticize or …
