i have found softwindows2 on a 12-year-old cd, and the cd is still readable. but: the installation is in german. if you can't find an english installer, you can use this one. UP…

If it's not booting without a chime (assuming speakers etc are working), it indicates it's failing its startup RAM test. I've a Powerbook 12" 867 which unusually has a failed onbo…

I'll PM you if I find it.

Built in video isn't synced to sound via TBC like dedicated boards have (or use external inputs) so sound tend to go out of sync with longer captures. You also might have issues wi…

Might have to do with your compression, what are you options for compressing? The more compression, the more processor power it will take to finish. But it might have to do with th…

Thankyou for your response! Would I be needing my hardware test CD-Rom for this, or can it be done with regular MacOSX utilities?

Grex, that's just part of Bunsen's signature - it appears in every single one of his posts, so I wouldn't take it too seriously. I was actually thinking the same as Bunsen, it look…

@Bunsen: Sorry, but that's NOT very helpful. Of course I searched the forum before posting, as any decent forum-user would. And naming some internetsites is also quite useless, co…

It ended at AUD $664.32. I sure hope the person who bought knew about this item in-depth, otherwise he's in for some real disappointment!

True, but I would like to use OS 7 (which can't happen on a G3)

If you would like extra speed and battery life, I would recomend the G3. I used to have one, which didn't cost me too much, and the single battery would last a good few hours. As n…

Stick it in ebay saved searches, with email notification set for the next 12 months. That's how I've managed to find a lot of my rarer acquisitions.

I honestly don't know if this is worth it except to hardcore collectors. The IIc lcd is really quite horrible to actually use, almost unusable I'd say. If you must have a nice clas…

As I already said, earlier and later version are quite as common as mud, but from Softwindows 3 on it's PPC only. I 've spent weeks searching for Version 2 in all terms, pronouncia…

As long as people have Stuffit Expander 5.5, they should be fine. There is now approx. 1.31 GB on the server. I might be adding .txt files with descriptions/version numbers/etc f…

I have SoftWindows 1.0.2 and 3: http://www.valleyofthelights.com/jcoventry/machut/files/emulation/ Couldn't find version 2 I'm afraid. :'(

Oh yeah, I noticed that I have two devices on one IDE channel, the CD drive and the Zip drive. I'm thinking about swapping the zip drive for the hard drive and seeing if it recogni…

I compress using DropStuff 5.1.2 on OS 9 and with DropStuff 7.0 on OS X. Haven't had any compatibility issues so far. Click to expand... Stuffit 5 uses a differant format, just…

If you're wanting to do some surfing, watch YouTube, etc., then anything older than a G3 is not for you. Even with OS 9, your browser choices are pretty limited and time will only …
