Yep, you're right its the LC575 - no PowerPC Mac can boot into 24 bit mode, meaning that they can't use the IIe card, and neither can the LC/Performa 580 (which runs at the same sp…
I've had a similar problem with my color classic: I removed the logic board and blew out the dust with canned air and when I put everything back together the color classic wouldn't…
i can confirm that the ram in the 3400 and 5300 in not compatable
also, i ran OS9.1 on a PB 3400 (200mhz) w/ 16 mb ram, OS 8.1 should be fine w/ 24mb of ram.
Office 98 works well on both 5300s and 1400s. Also WordPerfect 3.1.
I think you might be able to use 8.0 and 8.1 with that level of RAM. 8.6, no, I think you would want to have 40…

Well, I finally got tired of the dead B&W sitting on the floor, so I started checking ebay for a replacement motherboard. I ended up scoring a Rev. 2 B&W motherboar…
I'd definitely load ClarisWorks: WP, SS & Simple DB tasks are great if you don't want or need a MONGO SUITE of disparate apps, like MS Office. It's tightly integrated and n…
What is the fastest all-in-one that I can install an Ethernet card and IIe compatibility card in? I think it an LC575 but just wanted to be sure before I start acquiring the bits. …
Some of you may have read my other thread detailing the hell my iBook has put me through.
All I wanted was a system to do some writing on and some vintage gaming.
Enter my Powerb…
Ok I really have no idea what the problem is or what could be causing it.
In the last few days I must have torn this machine apart at least 8 or 9 times now. I have torn it down 3…
My own view is that the trouble with Apple's products at the time in question was that the company was in the business of soaking its customers by charging way too much for hardwar…
Many thanks, and though I don't understand all of what was said (which is a common occurrence for me), I get the general idea well enough. So, before I chuck the RAM in the eBay bi…
In response to an earlier post (I no longer know how to Quote):
Apple did produce what is in some ways a superior compact to the SE/30. It just wasn't sold in the USA. It was the …
Well....partial success.
Tore it down totally.
Rebuild it to the last few steps of placing metal shield then bottom case plastics on.
Powers on, boots up, recognized DVD/CD-RW d…
Since System 7 required more than 1MB RAM and a SCSI drive to run, it is unlikely many Classic users plunked down the money only 6 months later to add a very expensive hard drive a…

try assembling it w/o the metal shield, I have not found it necessary,(on my 700mhz model—i have an aluminum shim on the graphics card, and all that happens is that the ibook gets …
Trag - that's as simple an explanation about SIMM sizes as I can imagine. It'd be the kind of thing that should be a sticky or something so that others can find it easily. Instead …
Yes, which is why I wrote System 7, not 7.0. And System 7 remains the first system Apple charged for, not counting boxed sets with manuals of System 6. So, 6 months after the Class…
Ok I am going to give this one more shot.
I completely tore down the unit all the way to removing the logic board.
This way I can check the logic board for blown fuses, a screw t…
Things are settling down a bit to be sure.
What has been a major stressor though is the medical bills for the cancer treatment. Insureance is wonderful and without it i'd surely b…
