In the last week the rubber skin on my graphite clamshell has started peeling away from the bottom part of the case, where I tend to rest my palms. It's only a 2 inch section along…

I've heard that long periods of disuse cause this... if you have…
I sell lots of IIe's and this only happened to one customer, I think it was caused by the aging caps in it, I was not there so I can not say for sure, another power supply should f…
Well that's something no user wants to hear. I picked up my Apple IIe at a recycling event today. I powered it up for the second time ever. Got it all hooked up to the monitor, got…
One of mine did the deathbead GLOD thing, where it would work sometimes and then degrade, before finally not cooperating at all. A new power board cured that problem. I figured tha…
all fixed now I had to press the magic reset button next to the pram battery and a phone call to macupgrades where I got the Sonnet 1.8Ghz prosessor and they advised to select the …

The PMU of the Sawtooth and later Macs is a little more all-encompassing than the PMUs of older PowerBooks. Newer PMUs are rather more wide-ranging, and Apple describes them as 'c…
I hit the reset button by the pram battery and it started to work ( well at least it's starting up now) I still got to figure out why Leopard is not booting
what is that reset but…

My G3 B+W refused to start, I opened it up and there is a little reset switch on the motherboard, I pushed that and it burst into life. I disassembled the fro…

I just caught up on this thread. I'm going to have to dig up some of my supposedly "dead" beige motherboards and try TechTool on them. Thanks for the tip Driverguru.
Meanwhile: …
Thanks for all the responses! I have one 2400c completely disassembled, and have found one bad fuse out of like 11. I'll be looking into replacing that. Its the fuse right by the H…
