I looked at the link to the PIOS. I think that the 604ev at 300 MHz statement and the dual processor statement are independent of each other. In other words, the PIOS comes with …

Very nice. Are they all functional?

Dennis, don't you belong over on the Larry Niven group? What are you doing over here? Click to expand... I'm not sure exactly what that's supposed to mean. Are you just kiddi…

My 8600/200 604e with 256k cache, which has an Adaptec scsi pci card and 9 GB 68-pin drive, gives a repeated "bus error" message on cold startup in 8.6. Essentially, it gets to the…

WOW! :O 8-o Wish I had one

What are the specs on your iBook? I have one like it.

It's probably kind of a mixed blessing that it didn't come with a hard drive. My 3400's stock 2gb quantum HD ran REALLY hot, and really loudly compared to the drive I replaced it w…

I'm fairly certain that the PRAM has been removed. It was included in a small bag and it looks like it leaked at some point. I am hoping not inside the unit. Will find out soon …

Sounds like a plan to me! Make sure the power connector hasn't worked a little loose on the MoBo while you're in there. Test the PRAM Battery, maybe?

I'm not particularly familiar with multiple processors in pre-OS X, but here's my question. If you are multitasking, and have two separate, intensive programs running, wouldn't Ma…

Does anyone happen to have a copy of the TapGuard 1 or TapGuard 2 PowerBook utility, which is meant to keep a cursor from jumping around due to accidental contact with a trackpad w…

Picked up a Free Powerbook 3400 that the guy considered non Functional. I turned it on with another power adapter and it booted after holding down the PRAM reset. First time the …

The Sonnet 1 GHz G4 CPU cards come with 2 meg of L3 which is supposed to be able to run at 250 MHz. Since turning off the cache seems to fix your problem, you could also try to run…

I may investigate this further in due course, as I know that VM will speed up a ppc under many circumstances. Only not yet.... The particular 8600 in question here had previously …

well the playstation controllers are not just shift register driven, like most older pads (atari excluded) they use a fairly pita serial protocall course in this day and age it wo…

Using the analog playstation thumbstick with an Apple II would be really nice. Has anyone done that?
