Is the cable good? No bent pins?

Can't even get to the point of being able to boot unfortunately... It powers up the screen just after the startup chime without displaying anything then just drops it back to power…

You try reinstalling the OS, or swapping with a drive with a known-good OS?

So, my latest conquest has still not successfully run under it's own steam yet and I am beat as to why. It will chime, and will power up the monitor (I have tried both my old Phil…

On a regular Lisa, I'd remove the top, and there are 4-5 pots along the top of the analog circuit board that adjust horizontal and vertical hold, screen height and width, etc. The…

The issue is the processor upgrade. You need an older cpu to do the install, then install software (usually an init and a control panel) for the processor and then you will be goo…

Hello guys, this is my first post in this community, who already helped me a lot with some nice thread I followed in the past. I'm italian so forgive me for my english, not so sur…

Recently bought a powerbook 100 from an acquaintance. He threw the battery away because it was starting to leak. I don't really want another battery, but I'd like to get a shell o…

I'm not sure if the space between the two nubs needs to be clear... so a full axle might not work.  a nice tight-fitting bit of metal (perhaps as simple as a bit of clothes hanger …

Could do a rod, or drill out the one side and glue a rod into it.

The different angles of door is something I have not been thinking about much. Your argument makes lot of senses... But how do you suggest I proceed to repair that little pin that…

meall said: I have an external III floppy that I could "destroy" to repair the main unit, but I'm looking at a better/cleaner solution. Click to expand... You'll need to …

I'm glad you sorted that out. I hope now things will be easy for you when you replace the floppy drive. You should be able to replace the drive guts with another working one like a…

I have an Apple III I bought many years ago from a member of this forum. Can't remember who, sadly! I have not started it in years, but I know it needs some care. The first thing …

I love my two NuPower batteries - they are both getting weaker, alas. I keep babying them along.

I assumed it was a power management issue as it won't charge batteries anymore (hasn't for years) but that could of course just be dead batteries! (One of them was a new NuPower Ma…
