I stuck mine in a G3 desktop.

I can make out "System Good" on that image, but you say it freezes at that point? Interesting. What cards are you running on the IIgs? Have you run it without cards? If it were a…

I have been unable to find out what the CFM and the dBA of the original Color Classic fan is.  While I am doing an upgrade, I would like to move more air and perhaps use a fan that…

Yes, advantage of a TiBook! Also, 100GB is overkill for OS 9, but just enough for Leopard. *And* I can run my library of old Mac software (1983/4-1999 I think, maybe later than '99…

Schmoburger.... Point well taken.  I restore old vacuum tube motion picture amplifiers for a hobby 1930s-1950s equipment.  I keep them all original.  I would prefer to drop in a …

9.2.2 should fly along beautifully on the 1.0 Ti... not entirely sure about Leopard's performance however. I know as much as it will run, however it may be a little painful as I do…

TheWhiteFalcon said: Both are also quite rare (fewer than 150,000 Cubes ever made)...I'm not going to lie; not the biggest fan of FrankenMac-ing the rare ones at this point. …

My weapons of choice are 9.2.2 and Leopard

For what it is worth you likely will not hate the experience as much as you might expect if you play your cards right with the initial setup... I actually go out of my way to use t…

Hmmmm that's what I was thinking, that it might be actually logic board related rather than the Targa card itself. I might actually bring the 7600 over later today and throw in the…

I tried reseating the chips and no luck. I'm not sure how to clean the sockets honestly. The problem is also present on the composite output. The monitor is an Apple RGB monitor …

For some reason I'm recalling some other issue on some of these boards that caused slot problems. Each pair of three has its own controller.

I think this is on! Perhaps June will be PowerPC month .

Looks like the AppleColor RGB monitor the IIgs is paired with normally. There is no character ROM on a IIgs, it is stored in the main ROM. Have you performed a self-test? Hold down…

So I booted up the 9600 this evening and it froze before the icons appeared on the desktop, which I discovered  after I turned back around to open up Classilla and check something …

I use my 3 G4 iBooks (2), PowerBook (1) and my G4 Tower for everything everyday since I acquired them long ago. I do have a iMac Intel Mini but do not have a working PSU for it. S…

What kind of monitor is this? Have you tried it on a Composite Monitor? If not, check your VGA Settings. 

Hi folks... I have a technical question (?) on Chris Lawson's VGA mod of the Color Classic.: http://colourclassicfaq.com/general/vga.html First, I would like to quote a post mad…

I'm very much a fan of the 5400 and even moreso the 5500... There was a lot of machine in them for the money, with a decent video controller as well, and they were actually decentl…

You dont have a 5500/6500 laying around do you? Click to expand... I agree, those are pretty cheap are not really sought after, will try at least for testing purposes.

No, was gone, left while unsoldering. Thanks again

Hearing buzzing matching system functions is the TAM buzz. Means your audio isn't toast, but something is stopping it from producing sound.

If all else fails, sourcing a 6500/300 board, desoldering various connectors to make it fit, etc, would be a good project.  The baking sode mixture sounds like a bad idea IMO, and …

I'd remove the socketed chips, clean contacts and reseat first
