So did you get the 840AV - hows it look? I'm pretty sure I've a 32MB EDO SIMM in my 840AV - it won't hurt - give it a shot - but ideally you should go for FPM. ECC EDO RAM def…

The traditional way to prevent cracks from going further is to drill a small hole at the end of the crack. Not flash, but will save the plastic from further cracking. JB

Well I got a bunch of memory on craigslist the other day for REALLY cheap. Guaranteed to work or my money back. They're 72pin 60ns SIMMs, but they're EDO, and I wanted to make sure…

Finally got my Lombard back up to 512MB RAM. So nice.... Anyway, I noticed on the bottom of the case that there is a crack from the Apple logo to about 2/3rds of the way to the r…

I would place my bet on one of the following: PowerBook 190, 5300, 3400, and (judging by what I have read here lately) the G3 "Kanga." As far as I know, some 190 and 5300 RAM mod…

Those are either some really big RAM modules (for a laptop) or you have really tiny fingers

Hi there! I think both of the following are for older PowerBooks, but I don't know what kind would use them! First one is below. Has "A 8Mx64 EDO 3V 120 Connector" on it and some …

As far as I know, the memory check can't be turned off in the Memory Control Panel on a Quadra. I seem to recall that it requires a PPC and MacOS8 — possibly 8.5 or 8.6. It require…

The eMac 9.2.2 disc is a good one. The version I have has Mac OS ROM 10.1.1, which is one of the highest versions. I don't think any bootable, 9.2.2 install discs have the higher 1…

For the records: A 9.2.2 CD bundled with a later G4 worked quite well. It´s still verry strange to me, but the bought 9.1 refuses to boot, but a 9.2.2 works (even if it was made fo…

If the G4 is a dual CPU machine then yes, you got a good deal. I dislike iMacs so my view is that you wasted money on it.

I've forgotten the difference between the 64K ROMs. It was something very minor to do with the ROM debugger IIR (we were hoping for a fix for >512K of RAM of course). Cli…

Turns out that the iMac G5 is 1.8GHz/1GB RAM/160GB HD/CD-RW with a 128MB Radeon 9600 graphics card and Leopard Server. The G4 was 933MHz/512MB/60GB/Combo Drive So sadly these are…

Your 9.1 CD is probably a few months older than your G4, and it lacks some driver needed to boot the Mac. Similarly, my new Mini came with Leopard, but it won't boot from a 10.5.0 …

Mr T, it's quite likely the motherboard in your Mac is the original, though upgraded to 512K. The original boards were shipped in 128Ks even after the Fat Mac 512K was introduced. …

The iMac sounds good, but I reckon that you should offer less for the 933Mhz G4 (Quicksilver?). A dualie G4 is still good for "everyday" use but a single G4 933Mhz won't cut it, o…

So to be truly stock your ROMs should be 342-0220/1-A ©1983 variety, NOT 342-0220/1-B ©1984. Click to expand... Henry, since Beck-Tech read out the Apple ROMs to develop its me…

Depends on if they work.

Don't you hold down some modifier key as you open the Memory control panel and it gives you that option? I remember something like that. Because really, RAM doesn't fail all that…

I like to know if one can determine by the label on the back of the macintosh case or better by the serial number what revision of the logic board has to be in it. The best would…

Carlo, since my HyperDrive 20 Mac is a Macintosh 512k with the "512k" label on back and with a stock Macintosh 512k board that has never been swapped out or upgraded, I am happy to…

I first wanted to hear from PB100 owners … Click to expand... Err what I posted about was expressly about a PB100, unless I'm wrong! JB Click to expand... Sure! I just …
