Hello, I have a Power Mac 7300/200 running OS 9.0.4 with 48 megs of memory. Currently, the processor in this machine is a 604e, but I recently purchased a Sonnet G3 upgrade from th…

Hey guys, yet another question. This one one is about my Lombard. ****LOOK DOWN THE PAGE!! PLEASE! After installing both OS 10.2 and 10.3 (from retail disks), my Lombard would ac…

I have an Apple Newton that I got for free. Judging by pictures, it must be either an OMP or a 100. How can I tell which one it really is? It's kind of a neat little thing and I…

I have read that the temperature sensor is actually part of the processor daughter card.

I loved my Newton Message Pad 130 and used it everyday, but one day the batteries died. I didn't get around to replacing them for a couple of weeks, but when I did get around to r…

I own a Sawtooth but like almeath I don't have the original 8.6 install CD. Could someone who has the Mac OS ROM 2.5.1 file please make it available for download so that other Saw…

As far as I know the power manager (PM) circuit is built into the motherboard. It can be reset as above, and for reference here is the offical Apple guide on the subject: http://su…

When you say PM card, do you mean a replaceable card?

Try holding the reset button for 15-20 seconds, then let it go. If that fails, unplug the AC and remove any batteries, leave the system like that for an hour or so and then plug t…

Plugged a known working power adapter into the 1400c. Pushed the on key and nothing. Pushed the reset button at rear and the light at the top of the screen comes on. Nothing else …

If you want to use your PCI bus for anything else time critical (like a multi channel sound recorder) I've heard it's not advisable, as it chokes the bus.

but my Beige G3 in OS 9 had stability issues as well but in OS X it ran like a champ with no issues (sept for the monitor going to sleep and not waking up after the 10.2.8 update, …

I had good success with PCIExtreme on my Beige G3 with a Radeon 7000 in it. it actually helped allot more then hurt performance and i had the numbers to back it up as well MacJunky…

Not only does OS X need to be in a partition smaller than 8 GB, it must be the first partition on the drive. And said drive must be set as master, not slave or cable select. It's …

Turns out that the Network browser crash is a bug not a flaw i got the same freeze from the iMac DV SE so i am guessing that the rest of the crashes were similar bugs in the O…

With extreme difficulty. It's one of those things that gets lumped in with 'MLB failure' as the only remaining (but unspecific) cause of malfunction. When you have eliminated the…

while reinstalling the ram sticks i noticed one of them sounded like crinkling cellophane however that stick appeared to work normally (if you can call it normal) with the computer…

I happily defer to equill's data over hearsay. I've never directly tested the assertions from the LEM profile, so I have no direct experimental data to support or refute it. I've a…

I have seen that behavior ... I can't remember where. /wracking brain --David

I am puzzled by the references to the <8GB spectre. Ryoohki is writing about OS 9.2.2, having suspended his use of the formerly installed 10.2.5. I'll not deny that the li…

k the beige is reformatted however it just crashed and froze again... this time it was during shutdown the finder "unexpectedly quit" during the shutdown proses and i told it to sh…
