i managed to flash one of my video cards an nvidia geforce 3 ti 200 for the quicksilver it works just fine but when the Qs boots and displays the grey apple scree…

I don't mean standard in the PC industry, I mean standard on Macs. If Apple had stayed with it, they could have added ADC to all of their computers. Click to expand... Ah yes, …

Possible monitor modes maybe (a) working and displaying ( B) stand-by © has signal but cannot use it due to incompatible frequencies (d) no input detected at all (e) off

I don't mean standard in the PC industry, I mean standard on Macs. If Apple had stayed with it, they could have added ADC to all of their computers.

Not really, everybody else was content with VGA/DVI (infact Apple used VGA and DVI on the Sawtooth's cards)and Apple used then unassigned pins in the AGP slot. If Apple had pushed …

The reason the mouse is often referred to correctly as the "serial" mouse is because Click to expand... .. it's a hangover from the IBM PC world which had serial, bus, PS/2 and…

Hahaha :beige: Now I'm thinking it might be a power supply issue. I have a Power Mac 8500 that also won't display video, but with the Power Mac the monitors light blinks orange…

I'm actually more than a little concerned about this as I have no idea which group (if either) I belong to. ;-) Click to expand... You mean you didn't get the invite?

It's not even a serial mouse, it takes the raw phased output from the opto-electrical motion detectors. Click to expand... Yes, but when distinguishing the two ... which is qui…

Presumably there's some behind-the-scenes intrigue that most of us aren't privy to... for instance, I wasn't aware that we had a group A and a group B. I'm actually more than a lit…

I moved the computer to another room, and when I tried again, there was no picture at all. Click to expand... Did you remember to also move the screen? What "switches…

I waited before I replied in case I was wrong, but I am pretty sure that the Disk ][ connects to a set of pins on the back of the ///. See this pic: http://www.digibarn.com/collec…

I think it would be best to just buy an airport card for your iMac. I have a relative who installed an airport card after her Ethernet was destroyed from lightning, and it worked j…

I'm having similar problem with my LC III. When I first used it with my Mac ~ VGA adapter, the picture was fine (although it didn't boot up because there was no operating system in…

There is a little bit of info on the Disk III and its use on a III+ here: http://www.vintagemacworld.com/drives.html but as for the Disk II, vintage photos show Apple employees w…

You're right, ADC wasn't the stupidest choice they ever made. Abandoning it was. If Apple had stayed with ADC and developed a more powerful connector to power their larger CRTs and…

I just have one question: Is it really that bad around here? Seriously? Click to expand... I concur, I've obvously missed something. Perhaps it's people who spend their time …

ADB is 100% incompatible with the serial mouse. Click to expand... It's not even a serial mouse, it takes the raw phased output from the opto-electrical motion detectors.

At my school we have oodles of BlueBerry/Bondi ones. It seems like they where the norm. My old school had TONS of colors. In the more recent days (When I used to go to that school…

Oh, well this is rather unfortunate. ADC was the stupidest thing apple ever created. I do have a PC 15" monitor that I can use, but the quality on apple displays is far superior. T…

Yeah, I am trashing the mouse building idea. I am working out a deal with trag who is selling some New Platinum Plus Mice for 10$(including shipping). So It seems to me like the m…

Never actually seen a lime or tangerine iMac in real life... oddly enough those would be my first choice after graphite.
