well you can run Leopard on a G3 system that has a G4 upgrade on it, but its not the same as running it on a G3 t…

Installed Mac OS X Leopard. So far i'm pleased with it, it's not a bad operating system on this CPU and Graphics Card. Speed isn't sacrificed too much for the functionality... it's…
I still have the source file for the diagram (OmniGraffle Pro) so I'll make some minor changes later. May make up a wiring diagram for the mains power passthrough connector as well…
You will probably need to use a newer version of the Orinoco drivers with OS 8.6. Version 7.2 of the drivers is available here (at the bottom of the page): http://www.alksoft.com/p…
That guy's diagrams are pointlessly confusing. The one on outofspec is much clearer.
But in the end it was someone in IRC who sent us the pinout from the Apple service manual who…

I remade some of the wiring tonight to a much neater design. Still needs to be tied together but it's otherwise working fine. Used a 20 to 24 pin extension cable this time as well.…
I have an Imation USB floppy drive, for 1.44 MB disks, that I used on an iMac G3 with no problems. It will read, write, and format floppies in either Mac or PC 1.44 format and in …

The imation super disks read and write 1.44MB disks and their 120MB superdisks. Then USB ones have drivers for the Mac. I have a PCMCIA unit that is PC only, plus an internal drive…
Yep, after much headbanging on IRC with iMac600 and others, this was the conclusion we settled on. I have a box of 24V Powerbook supplies with dodgy cases I picked up at auction. …
That's where this next component comes in. Instead a connection of 5vSB, it will use a secondary internal 24v PSU from a PowerBook! The connections of the PowerBook PSU will be con…
Bunsen, I was using 5VSB of my Antec NeoPower 650 Blue for my Digital Audio mobo but eventually after time it started loosing power under extreme load and right after power button …

What?
That's right. After spending a good $65 on a Gigabit Ethernet logic board, i've just gone and repaired my broke…
I see that the Gigabit and Digital Audio power pinouts are exactly the same. I succeeded in booting my DA from an ATX PS with an extension cable made for P4 logic boards. It had …
