If you're looking to use a 500 series without a monitor, you may also want to consider the 580, which uses IDE drives instead of the less common, pricier SCSI. The monitor on the 5…

1. sounds like the battery itself is faulty. Have you tried Battery Reset? 2. sound like the backup battery is long past dead. 3. no idea, but I have never heard of this problem …

...but many of those were green or amber. Click to expand... THAT would be cool to have a green CRT in a compact Mac. Does anyone have pictures to show of this being done?

So do you have to get them from a broken SE or is there some other viable source? Click to expand... The best source is another compact. Luckily CRTs of all compacts are electr…

Don't forget that you can talk to whoever sold it to you and tell them it was damaged in shipping. Click to expand... I have, he has been very helpful and even brought me to th…

So do you have to get them from a broken SE or is there some other viable source?

If anyone needs a replacement SE CRT let me know; I have several SEs I'm parting out right now.

Well, it was like this since I got it. It might be that, I don't know. I don't even know if it's worth saving, as the CD-ROM drive is dead and the floppy drive has a disk stuck in…

Are replacement SE CRTs even attainable? Where on earth would you get one?

the 3400 that somehow blew it's ADB bus, both internally and externally so it's basically useless Click to expand... Quite possibly you have blown an ADB fuse on the logic boar…

The initial surge of current may be too much to power on the AC adapter without a battery installed. The battery can dump a lot more current for short-term things like spinning up…

You could always put a video card in the 575. You'd have to set it up so that it always defaulted to this card but it just might work (I've done this on an LCII with a Radius card …

According to (http://pinouts.ru/HD/scsi25_pinout.shtml), you are correct, there are 40 pins. Very useful website Bunsen, thank you! :b&w:

I apologize for the misleading title, it is indeed a dual core atom board. I chose the atom based on thermal characteristics, the space is really pretty confined, and doesn't allo…

What about a Localtalk-Ethernet adapter, like the Farallon Etherprint?

That board is definitely an Atom. Specifically a 1.66 GHz, dual-core "Atom 330". I have the same board in an ultra-small chassis as my home theater PC. The "D945GCLF" with no '2…

Some info on the Wings card connectors, along with an interesting hack, here. The PCI looking thing is probably the modem slot. It's similar to a Comm slot AFAIK. And yes, the S…

Hey Mars, What vintage is that iMac G5? If it's some of the early models prior to mid-2005, it may be the internal power supply unit. If so, check to see if Apple still covers i…

Ho ... ly ... 8-o Nicely done! I gather you're running VGA into the original CC analogue board and CRT, as you didn't mention any monitor replacement. Some more details about…

Got the Powerbook. I had some very weird problem happen to me though, and now that I think about it I suspect it is due to power loss. The 190 came with a battery that seems to hol…

I've already had the hardware hackintoshed. The problem is only OSX's boot support for such a low resolution.

Nice work, but can you Hackintosh it? But I guess you can keep the Windows load Basilisk II and emulate a Mac and really confuse some people

Windows, auuugh, scary! Nice NetBSD candidate though. Click to expand... She'll run OSX, but osx doesn't nativly support 640 by 480 at boot, so I've got some work to do b…
