If the plug fits it will work.

Can I use the replacement power brick for my Dual USB "Snow" iBook G3 (700MHz I think, from GainSaver) for the PowerBook, or must I buy a replacement 1400c(s) power supply from eBa…

Some brands of media were crap also. Lots of burn errors on generic and the like. Slower write speeds helped.

I have the Apple 600i CD reader and 2 CD Burners (one from Ricoh and the other from who knows...) all can read 700mb media and the burners can burn 700MB. It's just that last coupl…

I gave up and gave the board to a friend who has professional equipment for removing things like chips. The right equipment does a nice job without the damage I would do.

was it tough getting that old filter out buddy?

Couldn't have done it without your help!

cool u da man!!!

Hmm... I'll have to see what it says on the door when I get it. I don't mind using CD-Rs for now. It would be nice to have CD-RW capability though. Edit: In the eBay picture, the C…

BMOW, I don't recall if it happened when I booted from the floppy. It did happen when booted from an external drive though.

Sorry Indidnt take a photo, but Rlfen described it correctly. I can't take a photo now, because the problem has been fixed. Thanks to C and uniserver, Bourne filters have been rep…

put it in a room with Air conditioning, or a dehumidifier.

That I have not. I was wary since the loud pops the iMac could make scared me too much. I'm just a little too jumpy for that! :O I'll leave it on in the back of the office and tr…

WOW! he went from 150 to 25?

did you let it sit on for a couple hours?

And an FPU! Bonus!

I gave the CRT, Analogue, and Power Board a good dusting, hooked it all up, and powered it back on. The screen still pops, though not as violently or loudly. This one is a head scr…

OK, I'll pay the extra US$30 to get the floppy module. My PowerBook 1400cs/166 has the CD module already in it. I'll also get a HDI-30 to 25-pin SCSI adaptor so I can Use SCSI D…
