There's a utility called SwitchRes that might provide you with the extra option for screen resolution. But it also depends on the video card in your G4 - does it have enough VRAM …

DUDE! YOU FOUND STEVE LANDON.Is there personal info? Let's get this back up. Click to expand... I'm planning to do a full disk image (even free space), so we may be able to und…

I have no idea if the 128K SIMMs work with any Mac. I suppose I could try, though. At worst, it'll beep at me. (I could try it in pair with a couple known-size SIMMs, it would b…

i hope your luck is better but I have never got 1366 x 768 to display correctly on any machine last time I said that I got some hooey, but someone had mentioned getting it to disp…

I now have an Acer/eMachines E181H widescreen LCD monitor. The resolution is 1366 x 768. On my PowerMac G4, it shows a max resolution of 1280x720. Of course the picture isn't cl…

Agree with H3NRY. Almost all upgrade cards required 512K on the motherboard. However, correct me if I'm wrong H3NRY, a few bypassed the logic board altogether? It would be the exce…

Give THIS LINK a whirl. Just about everything you need to know well written should help you. Is this a 240V M0001WP European model? Or is it a 120V North American model? H3NRY, …

The SE/30, with its eight banks, could do 1.5 MB, as 4x256 and 4x128, although I don't think 128s were officially supported, and were exceedingly rare. (I think I have two of them,…

Another reason not to smoke my friends. Click to expand... You mean, aside from the fact that you'd have to kill them to get them into smokable form? HOLY CRAP! THE Stev…

2x256+2x1MB, Click to expand... Of course, that's 2.5MB! :I

All of my Duos have suffered from keyboard issues... though mostly a slow death rather than everything going at once. So I'd guess it's more likely a connection problem as H3NRY su…

I recall the Plus supported 256KB SIMMs and 1 MB SIMMs, in any combination of pairs. So 2x256 (which would be strange, since it's lower than it shipped with,) 4x256, 2x1MB, 2x256+…

Could be oxidation on the ribbon cable where it connects to the mobo. Unlatch the connector and wiggle the cable, then latch it again. Good luck. Yeh, the Duos are heavy as iBooks,…

That's a most peculiar board. There are RAM chips it looks like, and it takes power from the MB power connector. Could it be a video card designed to drive a standard 9-pin CGA mon…

What is the possibility that the mobo RAM chips were not upgraded to 512K? Click to expand... It is possible, but since it was much more common to upgrade the motherboard than …

It is shocking how bad even some new houses are wired these days plus the bad carpentry and general construction. It is said that few newer houses will last for 100 years like olde…

Not to keep too far off-topic... My house is massively badly wired. The previous owner was an expert tile person. He re-tiled the house incredibly well (although it was in the 7…

In a pinch, you can use a nightlight or some other kind of light which doesn't draw a lot of power. Touch one prong to the grounded case of something plugged into a good outlet, th…

Your SE/30 should be able to format an 800k disk as single-sided 400k format with System 6 or 7.

You can also buy a little device that looks like an oversize 3-prong plug that you simply plug into an outlet and lights on the device tell you if the outlet is wired properly. On…

Basically, I am, but I'm not. Like, I can use it, but I have to put up with my parents telling me about how Tracy Grimshaw or whoever the hell it is that does A Current Affair thes…

Unfortunately, the only way you're going to be able to test for anything is with a multimeter.

HOLY CRAP! THE Steve Landon! How'd you get that?! This guy has been hunted for years!
