I have a dead IIcx and a working IIci. I found a Centris 650 online, but the case is destroyed. The pictures show the power light on - is that enough to determine if it has been battery bombed or not?

My father passed away in May of 2020. My mother has finally started to clean out some of his old things including the PowerMac G4 he used for his business. I now work a career in IT, but this computer was the first one I was ever paid to repair, and being my fathers, it also held an incredible...

I was looking for a replacement Mobius Speedster that was in my Dad's old IICX and found that MicroMac's website is still up. Does anyone know if they are still around or will my order form just go into a black hole of identity theft?

A friend of mine gifted his late father's Macintosh SE FD/HD. I tried power it on and got error codes of 0000000E and 000002FF and was able to determine two issues. One was a bad RAM stick, and the other was a missing jumper on the motherboard. I have now gotten the friendly beep and...

I have a powerlogix powerforce g3 and my computer wont boot with it installed. It still boots with the orignal processor. The powerlogix was previously installed into a beige g3 and another B&W, but running bus speeds of 67mhz. Mine is running at the full 100 which is why I want to use...

I just got a blue and white g3 to replace my beige. I want to put my sonnet accelerator into the b&w, but whenever I clock the bus down, it will not boot. I would just keep the beige as my main machine, but the video is wayyyy to slow and the b&w doubles almost all of the video...

Can I just put any old scsi hard drive in here? the 20Mb one is dead and I am forced to boot from floppies.

I have a beige G3 (check signature) that I want to be able to play DVD's on. VLC kinds sucks for that because you can't do anything else while using it and even still it has a slow frame rate when running independently. I tried doing the hack where you delete the "Install Check" file inside...

I was reading about how you can change the pop up images in os x for the volume and eject and such. The files are in System>Library>CoreServices>BezelUI>Images I replaced the volume one and rebooted, but the image is still stock. I checked the file, and it remained the one I put...

I loved my Newton Message Pad 130 and used it everyday, but one day the batteries died. I didn't get around to replacing them for a couple of weeks, but when I did get around to replacing them, the stupid thing wouldn't turn on! [:(!] !]'> I tried more than one set of batteries with no...
