You'll need the adapter dongle that originally came with the 2100 if you want to do cabled transfers. Personally I'd avoid all that malarky and download NCX. WiFi transfers are m…

You'll need this software http://homepage.mac.com/simonbell/connection/ or a similar program and I would imagine a USB to ADB http://www.welovemacs.com/adapters-adb-adapters.html c…

Hello, I bought a Newton MessagePad 2100 and i really like this PDA but i don't know how to connect it to my PowerBook G4 Ti 667 VGA running Mac OS 10.4.11 because i haven't got a…

I downloaded xpostfacto and tried to install tiger on my machine with the dvd drive I installed. It installed some files on the new hard drive I installed then rebooted and the scr…

You might have better luck in the trading post rather than here.

Oh yeah, I noticed that I have two devices on one IDE channel, the CD drive and the Zip drive. I'm thinking about swapping the zip drive for the hard drive and seeing if it recogni…

Well, Got some more parts today. (DVD Drive, RAM, VRAM, and USB 2.0 card) Unfortunately the USB 2.0 card isn't compatible with the beige models. It wouldn't even chime at startup. …

I am running OS X on my PB G3 Lombard and it needs a G4. I know there are upgrades for it out there, but I can't find one for the life of me that wouldn't require a government bai…

I think it would make more sense to get a new 120mm fan instead, though I've read the B&W G3 uses a 2-pin connector not the normal 3 pin. Click to expand... Two pin con…

I would like to make my B&W G3 near-silent, like my iMac. I know it's possible, but I am curious to see if anyone else on here has performed this procedure. This guide tak…

Update... Success! I have two hard drives now on the optical drive ata bus.

An update: I'm short on cash, but I was able to scrape together enough money to buy everything but the new processor and the video card. I also ended up getting a USB 2.0 card beca…

Well I just threw in a 27GB WD on there and it worked without a hitch, even without jumpers! Thanks for the reassurance guys. I tried this before and it didn't work but I found ou…

Yes. The Optical drive will be the master on that bus.

I wasn't I was going to use it as part of server storage. I assume that cable is slave right?

Can you connect a hard drive to the second ata plug on the optical drive cable? Click to expand... I used to on my graphite. Just make sure the jumpers are set correctly. The b…

Can you connect a hard drive to the second ata plug on the optical drive cable?

There were three revisions of the Beige G3 ROM: -A (LROG434-01/02), -B (LROG434-02) and -C (LROG434-03), and all with part no 820-0954. There are five subspecies of the Rev. A, but…

I'm not sure how I'm going to get xpostfacto on the new drive. Is there a way to run two ide drives at once? I think I read somewhere you can't.

I've fiddled with OS X and XPostFacto on a number of beige G3s, and my conclusion is that you should use either 10.4 Tiger or 10.2 Jaguar. There's no reason ever to use 10.3 Panthe…

Ok, I'm still trying to figure out what os to put on, but I'll probably still go with tiger if it installs. I came up short on cash this week so I haven't ordered everything, and t…

I'd see about using xpostfacto to install 10.3 on it. I found that 10.2 was a nightmare on the older G3 hardware (beige G3, Wallstreet Powerbooks). Not to mention, Panther just r…

I have been able to use iBook disks on other macs. Thats the only ones that seem to be workable. Click to expand... The retail discs are model-agnostic. However, the discs that…
