Hi, Try this page. It's a great resource that provides instructions on getting to any component in a slot-loading iMac. http://www.scribd.com/doc/103447/iMac-G3-Disassembly-Guid…

We need a bit more info...is it a tray loading model like this: { "lightbox_close": "Close", "lightbox_next": "Next", "lightbox_previous": "Previous", "lightbo…

I need to put a new drive in my imac G4. How do I get it open?

I believe the other one is Delphi. Click to expand... yeah that sounds about right.

There were also two different types of cooling units, one by Panasonic and one by...somebody else, i forget who, the one by Panasonic actually works brilliantly and has a much lowe…

Not even all the G4's could boot into OS9 directly, you just had classic support under OSX. Click to expand... I think the last gen MDD were the non OS 9. Click to expand...…

After getting this up and running, I am now on a roll. I just got a troublesome quicksilver up and running. It was originally not booting, or booting to openfirmware prompt and fr…

Looking at the name plate was my first place to look however it was just a 1400c label. That website worked for me and I found that the machine I have is a 1400c 133mhz while the …

Umm, doesn't the machine's badge tell you that? It should say one of the following: 1400cs/117 1400c/117 1400cs/133 1400c/133 1400cs/166 1400c/166 The 2nd number (after the…

IIRC the 166Mhz CPU only worked in 1400/166 models, so if that works in there you'd assume it was originally specced to this. JB

I got a G3 upgraded Powerbook 1400c a few days ago and it came with 2 133mhz and 1 166mhz in addition to the G3 chip inside. Is there any way to tell what the original CPU was? T…

Well not all G5s are liquid cooled, basically if its clock speed is 1.6, 1.8 or 2.0, regardless of processor count, its air-cooled and thus has no chance of spontaneous combustion.…

I have a few old and reliable G3 and my G4 powerbook to help me with my Classic *fix* but honestly I've played around with Apple's new gear at their Store and it's so zippy compare…

Except that only works if you already have a G4 Tower, and RedJack states he has a G4 Powerbook. The upgrades are also pretty pricey, so you're still looking at around $100-500 fo…

that may very well be, but G5's are still not cheap and considering how much more powerful even the first-gen 32bit Intels are (unless you plan on getting a last-generation G5, whi…

Intel. I'm not even sure why a G5 is still a consideration at this point. Unless you just really like the PPC platform, 2 internal HD limit, purchased obsolescence, and knifing y…

Didn't the Quad G5's have the max RAM of 16GB? Click to expand... You're right. All the older ones topped out at 4 or 8Gb.
