It's Brazil. Anything common before the Beige G3 is the Performa 6200/6300/6360. No 68k Macs. It's an auction site.

Where are you located? Those prices sound kind of high unless you're looking at some kind of store.

I will buy a G3 (very cheap here), however the question is the subject. Many come without keyboard or mouse, and no money is spare to buy a USB card, so I might get the iMac. Befo…

OS 10? Hey this is the 68KMLA yeah yeah, I know, 3400c is a G3, anyways, Zip drive works like a dream under 8.6 so guess a troubleshooting session with extensions and control p…

Did you try a PRAM reset? That has worked wonders for me on occasion, though admittedly under 10.3 more than 9.2.2.

I have never dealt with a MP120 personally, but it does have a socketed ROM, meaning that you can pull it and replace the ROM chip with another from (ideally) a MP120 that had been…

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.

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…

You don't need to remove the CRT. From the manual 1. Disconnect the short speaker cable next to the speaker. 2. Note: If you are certain a speaker is faulty, the easiest re…

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…

I believe you have to remove the crt. But I could be wrong.

Also, I'd just like to say whoever thought it was a brilliant idea to put so much plastic in the *internal* chasis out to be drug out into the street and shot. This stuff gets VERY…

Okay, I'm stumped on this one. I've torn apart my 350Mhz Idigo because I plan on robbing it for parts in case my 500, or another machine I'm hoping to get, goes down (hopefully not…

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.
