My LC III's harddrive is waaay too small, so could anyone point me to an ebay auction for a compatible scsi hard drive? i can't seem to get any results.

Which CPU card do you have plugged in. And yes, the ROM is soldered down. Hmmm. If you have a voltmeter, I would measure the 3.3V wires from the power supply (you can plug the pr…

Well I upgraded my 7200 to a 7300 by upgrading the logic board, not realizing that they used different power supplies. So I got a 7300 power supply. Then I realized I needed VRAM. …

For those bidding on this Mac - it isn't a Hyperdrive. I asked the seller for a close-up of the front and it's actually the Macintosh badge from the back of the machine.

As both trag and Charlieman have written, reset the MLB. Not a desultory random poke at the CUDA. The CUDA is the last thing to touch before putting the metal cover back on, with …

Your drive isn't a MiniScribe or Microscience or NEC or Tandon or Rodime. They all differed in one way or another from your photos. Click to expand... Indeed. But I'm trying t…

I second Byrd - it looks identical to both of my 166 Mhz modules. Also, if you take a closer look, it has "APPLE COMPUTER INC" silkscreened next to the 603e, so its an Apple part..…

Lethargic and cacheless! Instructions for the downclock are at the link in the first post. Upgrading a 133 to 166 is a straight swap. So have at them comrades! I don't need one…

I bought the last of the G5s, a dual core with 7800GT and 2.5 GB of RAM when it was brand new. It was a great machine, but with the switch to Intel suddenly $500-1000 worth of PC …

Hey Bunsen, I think you're on the money with it being the stock Apple 166Mhz 603e CPU (180Mhz part downclocked) from a 1400/166 - as evidenced by the link below (bottom of page): …

Motorola 603 processor XPC603PRX180RE on IC-China's ebay store. Has three. US $5.95 BIN and flat $6 shipping. Possibilities: 166MHz module from a 1400 (which were downclocked 1…

I think the doctor truly is still "out" on this subject. Click to expand... According to your Flickr page, your drive has a MMI label with model MM 112 on it. Seems to me proof…

Great to see you getting back to your Duo mauling^C^C^C^C improving ways jt. Would it perhaps be more relevant to compare the unimplemented pads to the implemented VRAM in the DDII…

It sounds like you're not even getting a bong. Which is what leads me to CPU card seating problems. Click to expand... Yes, I had been getting the chime, but now I'm not. I'l…

Speed is of coarse the driving factor for most using the Mac Pro. I think the loss of PPC support will eventually get a lot of people to move on once Apple stops releasing securit…

To add to my original post: I will be upgrading to the 8-core Mac Pro when I finally retire my G5. I fully expect 6-7 years of continuous service from such a machine. Click to e…

I got a Dual 1.8Ghz G5 w/ 1GB (4x256MB) RAM and a 160GB HDD off of Craigslist for $240 (was 280) Runs great. Did a few upgrades. Swapped the 160 for a 1TB Green HDD (Western Digi…

I don't think you mentioned the CPU card. Given the symptoms, my guess would be a faulty/poorly installed CPU card. Try removing and reseating it. If that fails, unplug the powe…

If you do not have anything connected to the built-in video (you don't, do you, even a Mac-to-VGA adapter counts here) then the Mac should detect this and default the start-up scre…

I'm old-skool. And no, I didn't think so, but thought I'd ask.

Probably not. BTW, the 9500 uses DIMMs not SIMMs.

Am I right in assuming, from the replies, that no one thinks that putting in the two RAM SIMMs affected the 9500's condition?

OK thats all I needed to know

You can try it, I have.... it won't hurt anything.......but it won't work either.
