I think lombards needed the PCMCIA DVD card while the Pismos didn't for viewing DVDs. Are you running OS 9.2.x? It looks for specific hardware decoder cards on specific machines t…

Didn't the early Lombards require the pcmcia dvd decoder card?

Are you trying to watch a DVD movie, or are you trying to mount a data disc? If you can't mount a data DVD, then perhaps you simply have a driver problem. Make sure that the CD/DV…

I just received this powerbook. Bought it as is for parts. I plugged it in with the adapter from another model that fit. I tried it after a couple of hours, and it booted righ…

Corrupt power manager settings can cause all sorts of troubles – including the failure to recognize batteries in some models, but as I understand it, this is owing to software in t…

Woo! This thing has been upgraded and is working properly (posting from it now.) Pushed its pathetic 233mhz up to 333 for now, seems perfectly stable with a good fan, though when…

Ah, that would be my bad. You can hook one of the older Apple monitors up to that port I think, but don't quote me on that.

I have a radeon mac edition in both my B&W's (one is the original no number, the other is a 7000) and never seen the need for hacks (I don't play 3d games). Seems fast enou…

Will a dead PRAM battery in a Duo 2300c cause a battery in the bay to not be recognized at all? ('X' over battery icon) I've cleaned the contacts, etc. already. The batteries are …

i just tried it for giggles in grins, but took it off because it wasn't consistent. Some things would work better, but then they would be slower again if the hard drive was doing …

Just the VGA signal. I'm assuming you're talking about a tray load iMac. Click to expand... Why yes. Yes I am [] ]'>

I would think Quartz Extreme would be best for the 66Mhz PCI slot video cards in B&Ws, not the slower normal 33mhz PCI slots that share bandwidth with other cards like in a…

I thought about doing that, But I also have an ATA 133 controller card as well as a USB/FW card, so having that enabled might hinder overall performance.

My beige config is in the signature. Are there any ways to get the freaking dvd player to work on this thing?!?!?!?! I did a mod/hack where you delete the install check file in t…

Read the help doc and found out that when the vga monitor is hooked up a to a monitor, a dialog box shows up in the monitor and sound panel. The powerbook is not seeing the monitor…

Could anybody tell me how to use Mac-On-Mac. I can't really figure it out. It has very little documentation. Thanks

how do you tell what revision ROM you have? Click to expand... As you are probably aware, ASP tells you which ROM is installed: $77D.40F2 revision A $77D.45F1 revision B $77…

OMG! OMG! OMG! That game is sooooooooooo cuttee!! I am so downloading it.

Is the display cable on the inside that connects to the hunk of iMac carry any electricity or just the VGA signal?

The 9 ROM needs the OS 9 extensions and libs... so you'll get Mac OS 9 in the end.

Well I did the opposite. I placed the Mac OS 9.0.1 ROM image in the 8.6 system folder. It actually booted up with the Mac OS 8.6 welcome screen. That was short lived however, it wa…
