I've given up on the dual boot dream on this machine, though this has kinda got me fired up for a nice G4 Tower, maybe one of them mirror drive door but I need to do more research. I love the Apple Cinema CRTs that go with them. Gonna start hunting for one local and maybe make that my OSX...

Just spent the last hour playing TR1 keyboard controls having a BLAST. I did get the Eject Extras app(?) to work, even assigned it to a key stroke. I still don't know where I should be putting things on the HD. I dragged and dropped it into Utilities and it worked. Even added the Eject widget to...

Bro, you are a KING. I have my notepad with my detailed install directions for when I do this all again after I take this machine apart for recap and cleaning plus SSD install. Then it will be ready for final setup in my retro game room. The media keys plus eject on the keyboard still aren't...

I do not think we are on the same page, I might be in another book for how lost I am. I'm looking here "https://macintoshgarden.org/apps/macintosh-system-922-1021-power-macintosh-g4-mirrored-drive-doors-mdd#Custom_Variants_of_Mac_OS_9.2.2", it says OS 9 main page but it doesn't have the term...

So I grabbed ATI RADEON 9200 Mac Edition July 2004 and ATI OS 9 Mac Software Update January 2005 from here. Unzipped them and dropped them in the extensions folder, neither did anything after reboot. I even went back and double clicked them and it would install something but all it added was a...

As it turns out, I'm an idiot. After burning a few discs with none of them booting I finally take a closer look at my eMac. The unit I've been working on is a 1ghz/256/80/Superdrive/56k, its the Combo Drive models that are fully OS9 bootable. So I go burn one of the universal OS9 lives discs and...

More I look into this the more I think OSX is something I should revisit later. I guess my thought was to get as much gaming covered on the wonderful CRT that comes in the eMac as possible. Think I will try and find a G4 tower or even a G5 tower ( i'm assuming anything OSX related that runs on a...

Tomb Raider, Myst and the sequels, Duke3D. Stuff like that

This is the type of information I'm looking for! I want this type of deep knowledge to have this setup the way a Mac superfan would have had it setup. A fan that holds grudges

Some flavor of OSX

Thinking when I get off work I'll have some time since the kids are still occupied with their Christmas gifts. Going to try and install OS9 on my 1ghz Super drive model, can anyone link the ISO I need? Like exactly? As I understand I dont need the hacked up one to do this and I'd prefer as clean...

Thanks for the reply, you don't think the extra ram of the 1.25 version is worth the effort either? As got the gamepads, does anyone make mac adapters for real SNES pads? Or do modern controllers work on macs at all? Those Gravis GamePads have awful dpads

Hello everyone, like the topic says I'm looking to setup a dual boot eMac for my retro computing room. Also like the topic says, I'm a Winbaby and I'm STRUGGLING. Outside of some memories of playing on my uncles clone mac as a child and using whatever classic mac was at my school in the 5th...
