With the tape trick, I just had to get a whole bunch of 1.4 disks and eventually I found one that worked as 800k when taped. Good luck.

I have loads of 1.4mb floppies. I'll try Taping the whole. formatting as 800k, then formatting as 400k Probably will not work. But lets see.

If it works anything like the Amiga you can format a 1.4mb to 800k (and maybe 400k too). Just tape over the hole so it behaves like a double-density disk. Years ago I did that all …

Purchased from AG Wolf on these forums, I have a Macintosh 512k coming my way!!! It works nicely, nice physical condition. Will get to see it either tomorrow or the day after. I ha…

Strimkind- Thank you for the information. Sounds like a good program to have. The machine is not crashing and has no graphical errors, so I'm glad it is not the thermal paste. Toda…

Capacitor replacement is no longer offered from Adopt a Mac. Click to expand... Bummer. Many folks do not want to take up soldering.

I had the 14 version and it did the exact same thing about 5 years after having it. Was a bother, but when it came back randomly it was like, "wow so beautiful".

G4FanControl is now shareware. Older versions(if you can find them) were free. I had a copy, but external drive where i stored my whole life crapped 6 months ago.

The LC III has logicboard RAM. i removed my 32MB of extra ram and the ethernet card, but no luck im gonna try a 7.1 disk tools disk.

Oh, that's the "glowstick IIci"! Good luck with it.

How do I attach pictures? I really didn't think the G4 was going to make a big difference but it does. I mean you cannot play any OSX games but I do have OS 9.2.2 for my old game…

I wouldn't mind owning one either if they weren't so mindblowingly large. They are very interesting machine. I don't think I have ever seen one in da flesh. Take some pictures o…

I was looking there, but some of these upgrades are hard to come by and pretty expensive. I do have a PSU that will work, i have most of the case as well.

I've always liked how they look and to be honest, would not mind owning one. It'd be like an iMac except with proper expansion built right in.

Any markings or writing on the cards could be useful in determining what function they serve. I'd remove the cover from the case then leave the computer in a window or other area …

A well written conquest report, and a lovely looking machine, too.

I did a bit of googling and came up with a few solutions: 1. Install G4FanControl 2. Upgrade to 10.5 (if you have not already) Unless you are experiencing frequent crashing an…
