Wow - very impressive! Well done.

I've been busy the past few weeks with some new items: C600/240 96MB RAM 3.5GB HD USB Card Boots to 9.1 but a bit noisy G4/400 192MB RAM 20 GB HD CDRW No OS; Does not boo…

Great news - I was able to hack my 3400 128MB module to work on the Kanga! It surprised me that the 3400 128MB module didn't work - considering that the 32MB Apple module worked…

Yeah, I did an optical drive upgrade on mine; then two weeks later had the hard drive die; then a month later, when I got a MacBook Pro, decided to put the recently-installed optic…

I used to work on eMacs all the time. The only frustrating step was the pigtail wire that runs from the power button to the logic board. They made the wire so short and there is …

AH! It SUCKS to do an eMac Upgrade. There is no shield over that scary huge CRT. Erhh. It took me hours To complete a DVD Drive upgrade on mine and it doesn't work correctly . iB…

iBooks are a nightmare too. I'm glad they've made it easier in the MacBooks. Click to expand... Yeah, All iBooks were terrible to work on, clamshell included.

iBooks are a nightmare too. I'm glad they've made it easier in the MacBooks.

I just had my first occasion to replace a hard drive in an eMac. My goodness, what a gigantic PIA! It was easy to do, but it took about an hour from start to finish and included s…

System 7.6.1. is exactly what I am booting, and exactly as shown in your video. Very interesting theory. (I am yet order a new battery, I shall find out in a few weeks)

From memory it's doubtfull that 128Mb simms would work... Still I'd love to hear that it did work... I record video with my 840av sometimes & the more memory the better..…

What would you even do with 512MB in a Quadra? Click to expand... I run NetBSD on a number of m68k machines, and having just one machine which can compile those huge packages (…

I couldn't get a ROM 03 into my Woz fast enough. Who cares if it's not original; that, some RAM, a Transwarp and an AE HD make it a wonderful little box.

My Quadra 700 does the exact same thing when booting 7.6.1. (Maybe other OSs but I haven't run any others in a long while.) It chimes, starts just enough to turn the CRT LED green,…

Too much paste is worse then none at all, even a little that gets stuck on the cache leads will short out a chip.

That's similar to what I was thinking when I asked about 32-bit clean. The dirty Macs had an extension which would cause the so-called "stutter start," which was expected behavior.

Lolwut? What do you mean it blew up? Pictures?

I wonder, but is it possible the system software doesn't have the correct or needed enabler for the CC? Depending on the system software version, was there ever an enabler require…

how did you manage that :?:

Thanks - turned out to be the thermal paste on the CPU. Bought some. Applied it. And then it blew up! So I'm consigning it to the great scrapyard in the sky xx(

What would you even do with 512MB in a Quadra? Click to expand... I think it'd be pretty much like beachycove said -- you'd do it just to say you did. If I ever come across…

The MaxxBoxx could do SMP if I recall. It would appear that Everymac agrees with me on this. They were sold primarily in Germany same as the system referenced by the OP.

What would you even do with 512MB in a Quadra? Would it be possible to install the OS to a RAM disk assuming you never shut the machine down? You'd have to reboot to use the OS fr…

I have never used anywhere near 128MB running OS 8.1 and apps that run on a 68K. The extra RAM is just for bragging I guess.

The thing would take an aeon to start up Click to expand... An excellent point -- something I too often forget about 68k machines is the RAM check at startup.
