Ok, the title of this topic is maybe not the most original… sorry for that! I recently conquered a "dead" PowerBook 100 which cost me next to nothing. It came with its power brick…

I can tell you that it very seldom works on a Wallstreet.... Resetting the battery can be done in Open Firmware, I gather, on a Pismo. Mind you, it hasn't worked for my Pismo's de…

Out of curiousity... have any of you ever used BatteryReset 2.0 on a Lombard? If so, were you successful at fixing a battery? I've got a Pismo and a battery that refuses to take a…

Wow I believe this is one of those posts that should be backed up and archived.

The thing would take an aeon to start up Click to expand... An excellent point -- something I too often forget about 68k machines is the RAM check at startup. Click to expan…

I was very lucky, but it goes to show how proprietary RAM modules - must have some "play" in them to be mass produced for slightly different computers. So that's another unique th…

Wow - very impressive! Well done.

Great news - I was able to hack my 3400 128MB module to work on the Kanga! It surprised me that the 3400 128MB module didn't work - considering that the 32MB Apple module worked…

From memory it's doubtfull that 128Mb simms would work... Still I'd love to hear that it did work... I record video with my 840av sometimes & the more memory the better..…

What would you even do with 512MB in a Quadra? Click to expand... I run NetBSD on a number of m68k machines, and having just one machine which can compile those huge packages (…

What would you even do with 512MB in a Quadra? Click to expand... I think it'd be pretty much like beachycove said -- you'd do it just to say you did. If I ever come across…

What would you even do with 512MB in a Quadra? Would it be possible to install the OS to a RAM disk assuming you never shut the machine down? You'd have to reboot to use the OS fr…

I have never used anywhere near 128MB running OS 8.1 and apps that run on a 68K. The extra RAM is just for bragging I guess.

Hello once again, Update: I managed to get a good-condition working PB 180c, and it works great! Kind of makes this thread useless, but I'm keeping the 180 around in case I want t…

Apart from saying that you'd done it, is there any good reason to put 512MB of RAM in a Quadra, especially if 128MB SIMMS cost $20 a pop? I suppose that, with 512MB, you could run…

Look for 128 meg 72 pin SIMMs for Cobalt Raq2 systems. They'll work, and they aren't ridiculously large like some 128 meg SIMMs. You can usually find them on eBay for $20 USD or le…

Just so you know, it's been said that the Q840av will take 128 Meg SIMMs, giving you 512 mega total. Give it a try, and let us know... Click to expand... I'd be glad to -- any …

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.
