The VST drivers are simply rebadged Iomega drivers which are loaded. Restarting into my 8.6 partition, see what that does.

Dumb question I know, but you have installed the Zip drivers, right? Also, I've never dealt with one of those VST drives before - do they need special drivers, or do they use the n…

As per title, grabbed myself a sweet, brand new in box, never opened ZIP drive for my 3400c but it don't seem to work. When I insert a disk it grunts 3 times and then just sits the…

Sorry, my mistake, it's a MessagePad 120.

If you can afford an active matrix display, get one. Even compared to recent displays the 1400c is quite nice and usable.

Just opened my Powerbook 1400 cs/166 which admittedly has been sitting idle for a while to find my LCD totally splintered not a happy bunny ... I have found various sites selling …

I'm impressed. Especially on how nice the external case looks. I actually salvaged all the Indigo Blue parts from my old 350Mhz, and I'm thinking about polishing them up a bit. Som…

Standing tall. Restoration complete. I've officially named her "Kiva", after the development codename for the last generation Summer 2001 750CXe based iMacs. Now I just need to pi…

6:53 PM The iMac is reassembled and seems to be taking well to the new CRT. The logic board eventually came good after a few resets (and after properly attaching all screws, go fi…

Well, it looks like the fault is in the PAV board itself. Not dead, but still very weak. Solution? The "donor" system arrived today. It's an Indigo G3, case is pretty scuffed but…

Yeah, I have first hand experience with a broken tube.. Still alive to this day.

Yes, when not discharged a CRT can hold up to 27,000 volts. However, there's also an even bigger risk of the CRT neck (which is VERY fragile!) being cracked or broken if handled in…

I hope this doesn't seem like thread hijacking. It's kinda related... What are the risks of disassmbling an iMac down to the CRT? I'm always heard that CRTs are oh-so-dangerous be…

iMac600, if you need parts, let me know. I've got a iMac DV SE with 500 Mhz G3, Firewire 400, that currently has a bad P.A.V. Board I need to get rid of. It's either that or I've…

...is knock, knock, knockin' on heavens door. Since i've owned it, predating even my involvement on these forums, it's been a loveable old machine with CRT problems. The display f…

Sounds like the hard drive.

Holy crap that's a loud and scary noise! It's definitely a fan or a drive.

You're not kidding when you say "broken engine"... sounds like a spun bearing in a V6 engine. Diagnose it like a broken engine then. Open the case wide open, start the machine up …

I see nothing in the fan.

You've got something in the fan… I wouldn't worry that much, since you can hear the startup chime. What's going on, apart from the noise? Does the computer boot? A QUicksilver case…

8-o Did it eat your chips? ;D

Well, I was working in OS 9, it crashed and then I heard this horrid Mechanical Fail Noise. I unplugged it. I plug it back in, and it is the WORST failure sound I ever heard. htt…
