Well, having beaten up freudling's The Elusive PowerBook 550c topic more than I had planned to, (apologies there) I just bit the bullet and purchased a tested known-working M1893 A…

Hello. Well i got my mac off of eBay. It ran for about 45 minutes and when i went to use it later on it gave me the vertical bars. It looked like the capacitors on the logic boar…

I recently acquired an iMac G4 Flat Panel that will not boot. When turned on, you can hear the hard drive spin then stop, then the DVD combo drive spin and stop. I cannot get this …

Yes, I've finally done it. I've had 2 drives running flawlessly in my 1st B&W G3 for many years now, so today I decided to try and get 3 running in my #2 G3. Specs are ve…

Hello again. This time i am trying to install a bigger HDD in my G4 tower. It came with a 10gb drive. I cannot get 10.4 to install on there with any other HDD other then the one i…

I have a Beige G3 that I have set up running OS 8.5 with AppleShare IP. For some reason, it keeps crashing. I can't seem to figure out the problem. If I boot it up, it will disappe…

Do IceBooks really need their shielding?

Hello everyone, I have a ton of SCSI 160 and 320 cards and HDDs from dell servers. Would the cards work in my G4 tower? If so OS 9.2 work or would i need OS X? I don't know how p…

I will buy a G3 (very cheap here), however the question is the subject. Many come without keyboard or mouse, and no money is spare to buy a USB card, so I might get the iMac. Befo…

Where the heck can I find the software for the ATI Radeon Mobility in my iBook 600? I love ATI chips, but man their support leaves something to be desired. Ideally if anyone can …

I reloaded my G3 and now I wish I hadn't. I cannot find a driver for my Radeon 9200 to save my life...anybody have a link? ATI/AMD has been no help whatsoever.

. . . were any ever made? . . . or were USB cards made for a PB with ADB already on it? I'll admit to getting lazier w/age, but I topped out on the 1400c & don't ha…

I come bearing hard drive questions. I need to put a new HD in my 3400c, but I recall hearing once that some ATA-6 drives don't work with that series, does anyone have more data on…

Okay, I'm stumped on this one. I've torn apart my 350Mhz Idigo because I plan on robbing it for parts in case my 500, or another machine I'm hoping to get, goes down (hopefully not…

Ok, now I'm just really pushing things here, aren't I? Aside from my project to write a network game for the Apple II, I also want to look into Unix or any other multi-tasking i…

...is knock, knock, knockin' on heavens door. Since i've owned it, predating even my involvement on these forums, it's been a loveable old machine with CRT problems. The display f…

Well, I was working in OS 9, it crashed and then I heard this horrid Mechanical Fail Noise. I unplugged it. I plug it back in, and it is the WORST failure sound I ever heard. htt…

I just washed all of my IIe's keys. All of them went back fine except the space bar. I do not know how to put it back on. How do you do it?

I just found this adapter on eBay. Since Genesis controllers are compatible with Atari, this is a loophole to allow using a Genesis controller with an Apple II, right? Has anybody …

A question has been troubling me of late. As many of us know, it is becoming increasingly difficult to find main batteries for the first PowerBooks taking Li-Ion batteries: the 24…

Hi, I'm using the built-in SSC emulation in my GS and have it connected by serial port to a Classic running ClarisWork's communications module. Everything is perfectly fine: I can…
