but it's just so bizzare cos the computer will see the cd rom, but not the hard drives... Click to expand... Get "SCSI Probe" onto the case. It will tell you exactly what the c…

I got the 840av working and had two hard drives... a faithfull 4.3 gig and a 1.2 Gb. But the smaller drive kept on being there one time, but then not being seen the next. So I ass…

Looks awesome; one day I'd like to do a project as hefty as that. Also, props for running Mac Hut.

MY COLOR CLASSIC IS MYSTICAL! Thanks for the help. For the record, Sys Enabler 065 version 1.1 can be found here: http://pc.2ch.net/i4004/kako/1014/10144/1014458913.html Apple on…

If it was flood-water, chances are that the water wasn't clean. That means trouble. I would suggest pulling the whole thing apart. Pull out the socketed chips too, just record w…

Good work, looks like fun

Has the QS its original (at release) software? That is, 10.1.2/9.2.2. Is your problem confined to OS 9 environment? Large drive support under OS 9 should be present, but you can…

Nice score, if anything the passive matrix screen in PB150's isn't bad. The "melting plastic" would be what's left of the worn out case feet I've come across a few PBs with th…

Damn this post edit time limit! Anyway. Seems that I should either stick with the Digital Audio or try another SATA card. This kinda sucks.(not that I spent all that much on …

Also, looks like the macgurus.com forum has a few posts on this sort of situation with a few SATA cards and the issue is pinned on either Apple or Silicon Image's chips. :/

Not that I've ever seen a Mac in Calvin and Hobbes.

It sounds like you have a SCSI ID issue (assuming I've interpreted what you said properly). If that's the case, you can usually fix it by changing 3 jumpers on the back of the har…

I'm not sure. But it seemed fitting at the time.

Uh, Christopher, what does that have to do with PowerBooks running in "lid closed" mode?

Another place to ask is on a local Freecycle list. While some people still pay for G3 Macs, they are quite old and you may stumble across someone who has one tucked away in the ba…

This time of year yard sales are nuts Im going to one tomorrow, i showed up too late today but the people were like "oh yea we have 2 tables of old pc and apple stuff"!

Welcome! So now, during the summer season, my plan is to get a mac (powerpc G3 or better), so I would like to ask the people of this forum; where exactly is the best plac…

Some crystal clear closeup photos of this EPROM would be nice (preferrably by a camera mounted on a tripod, set to the lowest possible ISO setting).

There may have bee an early batch of LC II's that were, but all of the ones that I've seen don't have the panel cut out for it. LC II LC

For some reason I was under the impression the LC 2 also could do dual floppies. Anyway in that case I can see a LC 1 being interesting just for dual floppies and you should skip …

Many of the PPC PowerBooks has "lid closed mode" officially supported. The consumer-oriented iBooks did not officially support it; but the entire Intel line of MacBooks does.

Press Command-Option-X-O when you turn it on.

I am decent at soldering, but I would rather keep it original looking, but thanks for that info and I guess the LC III would be a better system to go for looking at them the only c…

Only problem is that in stock form, there was never a dual floppy version of the LCII, only the original LC. However, if you're good with soldering, the LCII does have solder pads …
