I had an instructor bring me a Powerbook G4 that won't power up. I tried resetting the PMU and taking the battery out, as well as re-seating the RAM. The charger light in the back…

Can I put a NuBus processor upgrade in my Dock II for use with my 2300c? Is that even possible?

They're quiet? Quieter then a Gigabit G4? Click to expand... Don't know the Gigabit. But at least on the Sawtooth there's a fan you can disconnect with no trouble unless you ad…

No. Just unsuitable for the model. All three Beige G3 machines were specified for 384MB total (max.) of RAM with then-current technology, and the desktop version had also a heigh…

What revision ROM? I think the early Beige G3's didn't support secondary drives at all, also B&W rev 1 had corruption issues on secondary drives. Click to expand... yep…

Internal ATA 0: CD-ROM + CD-RW problem is that both CD Drives do not work together. If CD-RW is set to MASTER, CD-ROM is SLAVE, only CD-RW is working. If both are CABLE SELECT onl…

Much in the same way as how stuff you order from Apple decides to show up after you decide to cancel your order. (back in 2004/2005 I waited 3 months to get an iPod, the very da…

I have just landed one with hard drive controller issues, downgraded and the b/w is back to normal! Lovely how the legacy keyboard gets used plus a working narrow scsi in 10.4.11! …

Well, it seems to have decided to fix itself after I made an appointment at the Genius Bar; funny how these machines fix themselves when you call Apple

Great, thanks. So, suppose I have one of those sets of three different cables attached together? So it's red, yellow, and white on both ends, and they're separate cables, just glu…

book123, I have sent you a link. If anyone else needs these files, send me a PM and I will give you the link.

If you have a cable that has one connector on one end, and three on the other; then it's the wrong cable. The cable you want is properly titled an "RCA connector to RCA connector"…

The standard things to check are the connectors, both at the motherboard and at the display panel itself. The latter in particular are somewhat infamous for developing poor contact…

The screen keeps flickering a brown hue and colors are off. :-/ halp? :O

Hi all, please anybody could share the Mac OS ROM 2.5.1 or the os 8.6 for my Sawtooh? I have 8.5 original, but it wont run thanks in advance.

A mod should move this to the Apple II forum?...

As long as it looks like it's composite, it'll work.

Ahh, sounds good. I found the handwriting recognition was 100x better on the 2000 than on the MP100, but since you can run OS 2.0 you should be good to go. They make great little…

Ah, the IIc. I need to do get mine out.

No perticular reason. The fact that is was a good price and came boxed and in mint condition were good. A 2000/2100 would have been good but they tend to be rather expensive and I…

Unfortunately it sounds like it's failing. If you have something else to boot off of on the machine, such as another PPC Mac like your G4 via Target Disk Mode, do that. You'll at l…

My little 12" AlBook seems to be having some issues with its superdrive. Any disk that I insert is sucked in, pondered for a few seconds, then immediately spat back out. Blank CDs …

Sounds cool. I've never seen a 120 before. I've got a 100, 2000. and 2100. Definitely cool. Any reason you picked the 120?
