Be sure to replace those old and prone to leaking caps. Max out the RAM, too. She's a beautiful machine.

It s order ... i am wainting. Thanks. lpl

First thing to do is change your PRAM battery, that is an old one in there! Then trouble shoot using the error codes.

No, this only works on Macs with the same video chip as the 8500.

Hello My "new" macintosh LC III has same green wires on logic board. And i have death chime. I would put a picture soon. Sorry for my languages i am french. lpl from FRA…

Is there any way I might get this to work on my Performa 6300 using the built in video?

There is also a slight chance that the sound output port is dirty. I'm pretty sure that there is a little switch inside of it that turns off the internal speaker when you plug some…

Updated links to drivers (still working great after a year on my PM8500 with built-in video on a 1920x1080 LCD): CustomGraphicsDriver.sit Custom_TwinTurbo9600_Driver.sit

Ha! my old thread bounced back to near the top! At first glance my board looked clean albeit dusty. When I removed the board and dusted it off and held it to the bright light I c…

Capacitors can still go bad without leaking. They are very likely to be the problem. There is also a slight chance that the sound output port is dirty. I'm pretty sure that ther…

Hi Dennis, Yes, the IIci boots and works just fine. The only thing AWOL is the sound. I've inspected the motherboard and see no evidence of leaking caps. As long as it works, I'll…

All it needs is new capacitors on the logic board (permanent fix). At least wash the logic board (temporary fix), it might work. We have tutorials around here on how to do those …

I'm packing up to move at the end of the month and have decided to lighten it up this time. In the back of a pile of junk (where does it accumulate from? LOL!) I dug up my IIci. It…

Thank you so much!

There used to be arguments among memory upgraders about whether to use sockets or not. There are some 128K boards which just don't have enough juice to drive the extra capacitance …

I just went and bought a new screen for my PowerBook G4 today! Now all I have to do is wait 3-4 days. Finally, I'll be able to use it as a laptop, except I don't have a battery…

Notice, he's wisely replaced them with sockets. But I have a stack of failed 128K boards all with Apple-branded, Sad Mac RAM error codes in need of replacement. Yet I have never se…

The best thing to purchase is a universal power adapter. These have a few different plugs and allow for the voltage to be set to many different settings. I've used one of these to …

I wish I could help with a picture or something, but most of my stuff is in storage in central Illinois, and I'm in England. However, if memory serves, it required 19vDC, 2A. Ther…

There are rumours that the Sonnet 7200/4400 G3 upgrade - that actually goes into a PCI slot - has been made to work in other machines. IIRC, someone on the 6400zone forums got it …

Do you know the voltage/can you post a picture of your power cord? I think it would work, but I really don't know if the power cord I have will work with it. also, is there a pram…

All I know is that often, old clones like that relied on ROMs pulled from donor Macs (ROMs couldn't be purchased individually or legally cloned) in an interesting arrangement: they…

I have a 3000 series with a 68EC030 on an SE ROM, but I think I shorted out the logic board when I tried replacing the failing hard drive years ago (it won't go past the initial ka…
