Hey guys, I found the aforementioned computer on a local "classifieds" websites. It had the following description: The price was listed as $175. I've wanted to get a G4 for a while now and I was wondering if this was a good price to pick one up at. I'd prefer free, but around here Mac's are a...

Disregard, I was able to locate working disk images =]!

Hey guys I was wondering if anyone knew where I could grab the disk images for GS/OS 5.4. My ROM01 (w/ 1.25Mb RAM total) for some reason won't load 6.0.1 =[ It boots up, gets about 90% through the red load bar, beeps, goes to 100% and then freezes permanently D= I've scoured the net to try...

I just attempted to run MacADT from my LC550, and I got the same results. I still couldn't send out the printer port, which was strange. I'm going to try grabbing an audio cable tomorrow, see if I can't get ADTPro running through my PCs... -Academician

Although I am doing quite a lot today, I'll see if I can't pry it back open later and snap a few shots.

That little tidbit of code you gave me worked fine. I did end up trying the mouse card in my GS and it worked fine, so I know it isn't a hardware problem. The mouse card is in Slot 4 of the //e, for clarification. I may try it in another slot just to see if it makes any difference. When I...

Tried to send a disk back to the Centris but I got the same error that I get when trying to receive. When trying to receive I noticed I get a Testing Disk Format message, and then the garbage begins. Edit: This happens with any disk image I try to send, not just the default. I wish I could try...

Thanks for the quick reply =] I consistently get that "garbage" on my screen after quite a few hard-resets... I haven't yet tried to send a disk back to the Centris, so I'll probably give that a shot before I hit the hay. The config indeed automatically selects the IIgs Modem option. This GS...

Hey David, I was wondering if you could help me. I'm using the MacADT program found in your ADTPro 2007 package, mostly because I can easily hook up my Centris to the modem port of my GS. I can successfully get the program over to the GS and it starts ok, but there is a slight problem. If I...

I typed those in in the Control+Reset console and didn't seem to get anywhere with them. If I'm typing it in the wrong spot, which is more than likely, please point me in the right direction. I had about the same luck with some various programs I found on that google group as well...wish I...

Hey guys, I was wondering if any of you knew a program that utilized the Mouse on the Apple //e. In a recent grab I got a M0100 mouse and I want to test whether or not it is compatible with my Apple. I tried a little googling but I didn't turn up anything reliable. I still have yet to burn...

I did find the HD20 Startup Disk and burned a copy. The drive failed the test within seconds and it doesn't seem to be format-able either :'( Thanks for the link though, it sure helped me put another nail in this things coffin so I don't have to worry about it, for a while anyway. -Academician

Still not entirely sure what I should do with this battery situation. These macs will boot without the battery, so I'll probably hold off until I have a little extra cash to grab them up. MacJunky, interesting and quite a cheaper idea. I was wondering how you configured that up. By that I mean...

I have a Macintosh HD20 that came with my Plus, and it doesn't seem like the drive itself has stood the test of time. When I boot up my Plus with the drive turned on it will attempt to boot from it, and then fail. I eventually gave up on it, used my Centris to burn some System 6.3 images and...

The GS/OS from Apple actually has to be burned on a Mac, then ran on the GS to create the actual GS/OS disks that you can boot from. At least that's what I can gather from the instructions I've read. I have heard that w/o 4Mb+ of RAM GS/OS 6.0.1 is unruly, but don't take my word for it. I'm...
