CD open button not working — #2

As far as I'm aware, the CD drive cannot be opened by software unless there's a disc in the drive. The CD buttons on these systems can get hard to open if there's no shim between t…

Power Mac 7100 deassemble — #4

Thank You. Well, everything's going well, except that I can't get off this metal shelf from the back side of the 7100. Two clips are holding it. I don't want to break it up. Cli…

OS9 on Cube 7448 — #4

I think I might have cracked my own problem; enabling me to install OS 9.2.2 without my original cube CPU, and without installing on another computer: 1. re-install Mac OS 10.4 (C…

If you still have the original CPU, swap that in, install, and swap back. You might want to get a legit full retail copy of 9.2.2. as well. Is the optical drive known good? ie w…
