Hi, I received my PB 3500/Kanga G3 Powerbook the other day, and set out fixing it up with a new HD and general spruce up, it came with 5GB HD and 64MB RAM (32 + 32MB) I also have…

I have a 2hr battery, so do not need a replacement just now. 2 years from now, maybe. This latest post was made purely with a view to the possibility of experimentation on a dead b…

Enjoy.

Have you looked into professional places like www.batteryrebuild.com to rebuild your old batteries? You can have major problems trying it on your own.

This evening I read with some surprise that the cousin of the 2400c, the 3400c, can use and charge the battery from a PB 190/ 5300, which is, of course, a NiMh battery rather than …

Nice score - welcome to the club! Can't say I've ever heard of an 840AV that didn't come with a CD drive, unless the blanking plate is wrong. I picked up a very sick 840AV a coup…

Sorry, I'm a little excited. This machine has been my Eleanor for many years. I've wanted one ever since I was a wide-eyed teenager staring at one in the display window at Micro Ce…

I have to agree with some of the others. As soon as a drive starts doing "iffy" stuff such as screwing either with smart status, or showing "Failed" then going back to "Verified" …

OS 9 came out before that PowerMac though. So it's possible that the G4 either has a specially compiled version of the Finder/System, or there is an enabler (going back to the old…

Confirmed: Bad RAM.

The G4s require the copy of 9.1 that they came with; or later. Click to expand... That´s the first time I hear this. Always was said the Retail CD is needet for special things …

The G4s require the copy of 9.1 that they came with; or later. A 9.2 CD should boot it just fine, though.

Today I got a G4 466MHz and wanted to do a clean reinstall of OS 9.1. I took my original retail Os 9.1 CD (not an bundled to a machine one) an tried to boot. CD-Rom starts to seek…

I have finally removed the screen - ready for when i find a new one It looks so hollow Ditty93

John - That's the version I tried first. It refuses to load in OS9. I had to dig through my collection and found a copy of 1.5f6 and that works just fine. I'm a little older tha…

I would recommend using RAMometer.... Click to expand... Very helpful discussion, and lead on the Gauge Utilities, which I have used for many years but without knowing this par…

I'm not particularly familiar with multiple processors in pre-OS X, but here's my question. If you are multitasking, and have two separate, intensive programs running, wouldn't Ma…

Hmmm. I have a 9500 with a Sonnet 800MHz G4 that has strange problems from time to time. ie Apple System Profiler freezes the machine solid when I attempt to list the SCSI devices…

Hmmm... It's been a while since I've run these kinds of Sonnet accelerators in Mac OS 8 or 9. Mine are in various NetBSD machines (I have a couple of 700 MHz Sonnet accelerators, t…
