I know this doesn't help you, but I'd just like to add that I get this same problem on my Mac Classic as well.

I've noticed occasional screen interference when the hard drive is accessed on a Classic II. The cables are connected securely and I'm assuming the problem is with the analog board…

OK So I have a small problem installing 9. I boot the 9.2.1 CD I have it hangs at the Happy Mac Classic... Help?

Oh, okay, thanks. Well, I'll track down some lubing chemicals and such and I'll give it a go on that floppy drive. JDW recently suggested to me that I upload pics of the drive as…

It had 10.4 and I wiped it because it had a bunch of teacher crap. I plan to put 9 on one partition and 10.5 on the other. I've restarted the Machine a few times, and the CRT is …

It has now been several years since I last opened up a 400K drive, so my memory is foggy on certain details. But I can say with certainty that two things make direct contact with t…

Check the video cable connector, I've heard just insulating it with electrical tape can fix alot of bs depending on what is up with yours. (google a bunch, dont dye on crt, etc...)

What's it running? I guess X.3

Very nice Mine has a undecided CRT, It is sometimes DIM and sometime Bright... [Edit] Since I cant edit my OP I'll put it here: Pictures:

Hopefully you don't have as many problems w/ your eMac as I do w/ mine. My eMac is "special". Here is the ritual of getting it started up: 1. Cross fingers and press power butto…

Hey everyone! Just got my eMac 700. It was a teachers and had a trillion stickers. I haven't powered it up, but dang this thing is heavy!!! I might put OS 9 on it :beige: I'll…

You're very right, and I respect your decision. Sorry if I have been rude. However, a better idea would be to advertise here on the Trading Post, the 68KMLA's own stop for sell…

ZIPs are in the list of allowed extensions... so I'm not sure what the problem is really...

It's a setting in mediawiki, I had to configure mine at stenoweb.net/wiki/ specifically to allow PDF files for example. TL could probably change the setting, what is it that neces…
