I have been working on my SE/30s and needed to move and install some files to them but this work took an interesting PCI Powermac detour. viewtopic.php?f=7&t=22672&p=225155#p225155 The easiest way to do this was by taking my SE/30 SCSI drives and adding them to the internal SCSI chain...

All of this recent talk of Maxell massacres and other battery explosion induced motherboard desolation prodded me into action over the last 2 days. I have 2 SE/30s. One with an almost pristine outer shell and another that is deeply sunburnt and has a small chunk of the rear case missing. The...

Howdy, I have (2) different 17" iMac G4 systems. One is a 1.25 GHz system that I bought new. The other is a very nice but slightly less capable 1 GHz system from the prior model year that a friend gave to me when she said her system started to not startup when pressing the power button and...

I've been running Mac Systems since 6.0.3 and yet somehow this version escaped me for all of these years. Are there any advantages to running this vs. 7.1? ie. does it being "Pro" mean that it has better performance? I tend to run a lean system so I don't need all of the extra stuff like the...

I am about to replace my old leaky caps on my IIci but before I go ahead and order them from Trag I wanted to see if anyone knew whether or not mylar capacitors might be an option for the big ones, the 470 microfarad and at least one other good sized one on the IIci motherboard. Mylar caps are...

I just enlisted yesterday. I have been on a quest to resurrect my IIci, my first Mac that I bought new in Nov of 1990 hence my user name. I was a lucky one who got the metal SIMM clips and not the brittle plastic ones. I have a long story on this but I appear to have had capacitor bleedout...
