Hi all, I'm looking at a 350MHz iMac for a friend. It doesn't power on when the button is pressed at all. I can hear the high voltage come up for a second, and then slowly discharge when the button is pressed. The Power LED doesn't come on, or even flash. I don't hear the CRT degauss. I do...
Does anyone have one with a more recent ROM or know where I can find one? I have a card, but it has the original 1.0 rev ROM, and that really limits it's compatibility.
Thanks!
So I recently replaced the cells in my PowerBook 145B battery, and it works great, charges without a problem, and gets decent life. The only issue is the fact that the battery monitor build into the OS is designed for NiCAD Cells, when I recelled with NiMH as you can't get NiCADs anymore. Is...
I'm looking for the best card with OS9 accelleration as well as 10.4 for my 500 MHz Sawtooth. I use a DVI monitor, and it would be best if the card could output 1920x1200. What are my options? Probably not going to play too many games, and I don't have a preference between ATI or nVidia.
Thanks!
Hi, I was recently given a PowerBook 5300c. I resoldered the power connector, but that didn't help. The issue I'm having is that most of the time, when I plug it in, the sleep light comes on, and the power key does nothing. I can't get it to boot. I pulled the PRAM battery, but that didn't...
I just got a beige G3, and It had a bad power supply. I replaced it with the an ATX unit, and after cleaning the board with alcohol, it booted up. However, now it won't boot. It chimes with ram installed, but I don't get any video. If I remove the RAM, I get a crash.
It doesn't seem to...
I am having weird symptoms on my IIci I just recapped. It works just fine except it doesn't seem to detect the NuBus card I am trying to install. I am trying to install a Radius Rocket, which I know works, because I have used it in another system. It doesn't show up in tattletech, and fails...
On my newly recapped SE/30, everything works great, with the exception of the serial ports. Completely dead. I tried a looper cable and it didn't work.
What should I try first.
Thanks!
Help! My new SE/30 is Simisamaced. It has the vertical lines pattern. I have removed all of the caps, and cleaned the board.
My question is, what caps are needed to boot? I want to start checking traces before I fix the caps. I have pulled the video rom and ram and I get the same symptoms...
I just had an idea.
If someone can get the IIsi's NuBus adapter working in the SE/30, you could build a thing that goes on the back and holds the adapter as well as a Radius Rocket. That would be one blisteringly fast SE/30.
Also, you could call it a JetPack for added awesomeness.
If I try to install any version of System 7 on my newly LC520-ified CC, it says it isn't compatible. I have tried custom install, and that just makes a mess by installing everything.
What symptoms are these? Wierd.
I am considering buying @Alex's SE/30 Board, and I am curious as to what the symptoms are.
BTW: How many layers is the SE/30 board?
Thanks
I'm getting a CC, and it needs to be recapped. What part numbers do I need. There are so many options and I want ones that will actually fit, but I don't know much about choosing them.
Thanks
Someone fairly recently gave me a MacBook Pro 2011 15 inch with what was thought to be the dreaded GPU failure. I helped them pull the hard drive, and they took it to get data off of it. I took it home, and with a little testing determined that there was nothing wrong with it and it just...
I just got a Clamshell with a completely dead battery. I decided I wanted it to work, so I took apart a working, but used battery. I transferred the cell pairs into the housing, and connected it all up again. It isn't perfect, and the housing is held together with electrical tape, but boy...
Here goes! I recently traded iBook G4s for an iBook G3 clamshell! It works great, although the cosmetics are not the best!
I also immediately recelled the battery, and so far, it's been running 3 hours on a charge!
Thanks @jack for your time!
I have an iBook G3 clamshell with a pop out cd drive that won't stay closed. It works fine and reads cd's if you hold it or tape it shut, but it won't latch. Can I have some help fixing it?
If not, will anyone sell me a drive for really, really cheap?
