Hi guys, I've got this Mac Classic which I've finally got a new CRT for and have recapped the capacitor-plagued board. It looks good now and is working mostly, aside from this issue where (no matter the brightness) I can see the raster on the screen. I believe it's the equivalent of the U1 chip...

Were the late analog boards in the Mac Classic noticeably different to the early models? Are late style yokes compatible with the early boards (with adapting)? I ended up with the wrong type CRT and would love it if somebody could help me out figuring this out.

I bought a Macintosh Classic CRT, and the yoke is the wrong type (early yoke, late board). Is the pinout the same and is it possible to just adapt the pins somehow? Not sure if this is possible. Thanks, 68kPlus

I bought a new flyback for my iMac G3 grape (rev c), and was just wondering if there's anything I should know about before replacing the flyback. I have left it off for about 2 weeks (although I'll discharge it anyway), and I've already taken it apart several times, so anything I should...

1. Recently I had been in the Mac collecting mood, so I was looking around and found a 12" iBook G4 (Mid 2005) on the Japanese proxy service Buyee. I ended up winning the auction for $12AUD (About $8USD), and also paid shipping afterwards. At the end of it all I ended up with a 1.33GHz iBook G4...

I got a Mid-2007 iMac from my grandmother recently, and was wondering what kind of upgrades are possible for it. It's already got an SSD, 4GB RAM and the top-spec 2.8GHz Intel Core 2 Extreme, so I was just wondering if there's any other kind of upgrade possible. Can't think of anything though...

Hi everyone, If anyone has a G3 AirPort card for the iMac G3 I'm interested, send me a PM Also looking for 512MB PC133 RAM. Thanks!

Hi everyone, Just wondering if anyone has a capacitor list for the Apple 661-2466 iMac G3 analogue board (early 2001, LG CRT and board). Thank you in advance.

I have a 320GB drive in my 600MHz Graphite and would like to make perhaps 4x 80GB partitions on it. How could I achieve this? My theory: Partition the 320GB drive on my Indigo iMac to be 4x 80GB Put the drive back in the Graphite and restore the two 64GB partitions I currently have (making up...

Yesterday I found a stray 512MB PC133 RAM stick, so I installed it in my iMac G3 and it worked first try. EveryMac says they only support PC100 RAM, but I guess the iMac slows it down so it supports it. Just thought I'd let you guys know as it might work for you too.

Hi, Just wondering if anyone has a known working Mac OS X 10.4.11 PPC Update for my iMac G3 600MHz? I tried two, but the first one broke my Tiger install (10.4) and the other said it didn't support my Tiger install (despite being a PPC version). Any help would be much appreciated! 68kPlus

This happened earlier this month, but I got the following from a friend of my grandmother's: 3x Working SCSI Zip 100 drives 4x Zip 100 disks 1x iMac G3 SE (Early 2001, Graphite, 600MHz 384MB RAM (Upgraded), 16MB ATi Rage 128 Ultra, CD-RW). - OS X Tiger + OS 9 1x iMac G3 (Early 2001, Indigo...

I'm out for most of the day, but once I get home I'll do another post about these beauties. The blue one (Blueberry or Indigo) apparently works, and the graphite has power button issues but is functional.

Hi, Just wondering if it's possible to convert audio files for my Mac Plus so I can listen to music with it. I've heard of some people doing it succesfully, but with a PowerPC Mac which I no longer have. Thanks!

My grandma knows a guy who she is friends with has two iMac G3s, and also tons of software. I've already been given some software, which I'm trying to sell. He doesn't want any money for any of it, so it looks like I could be getting two graphite iMac G3s for free. Now for context, I've been...

Just wondering it it's possible to play an audio CD using the BlueSCSI's CD support? Perhaps there's a way to play full length sound files on a Plus? If anyone has knowledge on this topic I'd love to know it!

I hope someone can, because I do not understand why it's there and what it does.

Hi, My SE is making this high pitched noise, and I think it's the flyback transformer. I believe they are supposed to make this noise, but I'm not sure it's normal.

Hi everyone, the fan in my SE is quite loud, and I am currently doing some fixups on it (recapping), and I was wondering what a suitable fan is for it. I have the Elina fan in mine. I'm not against soldering a new one in, although I'd prefer not to. Any ideas? Thanks, 68kPlus

Hi everyone, I was looking to make a thread for all those who want to recap their Apple mouse, keyboard, floppy drive (external), etc. I've looked inside my stuff to see what caps are in them, so here's the first lot of info: ===================== ADB Mouse G5431 (USA) -0.47uF, 50V, Axial...
