maybe a power problem, have you checked the power supply?

this is the Orinoco version with complete installer that worked most of the time on my machines with 8/ 9 and my Orinoco Gold/Silver or equivalents..other WaveLan versions didnt, it correctly recognizes the chip version.. And under OsX I just use a common, cheap Gigaset Siemens 54 PcCard that...

I had to open my revived 190 after the hinge cracked last time I opened it two days ago.. I disassembled it completely, opened the display and removed the two metal hinges. They were almost completely stuck due to its age, then I pulled the two pieces apart and cleaned the stuff spring/ shim...

have you checked if the powerboard is ok, eg replaced/compared it with a known working one?

interesting sticker..is that original?

yeah, I find that any early i5/i7 iMacs with 27" display ( which are cheap and plenty) are very useful at home still..a good industrial design, only plug in keyboard/w mouse and off you go, perfect for elderly and kids..even supports Windows in Bootcamp.

yeah those Intel Core 2 Duo Macs are quite common, but I prefer the early i5/i7 , they a bit more useable today. I recently found one of those 2006 black MacBooks but couldnt find a use for it actually, sold it..

I thought you were supposed to do the 10.4.11 updates before even installing shuriken, a necessary requirement to do Shuriken over it? your 'black box' looks just like the black background window for a kernel panic, just without the text over it.

I can remember having some probs after doing Shuriken, went back to Sorbet. maybe an error occured because something was not intstalled in strictly chronological order. https://www.macintoshrepository.org/48943-shuriken

there should be a @MacTravel pics thread

I didnt have floppy hinges on my Pismo but the ones in my Titanium are quite stiff..they get better when I work on the machine for a while, which means when the metal heats up a bit. I applied lighter fluid from the outside and sprayed a little silicone spray but didnt help much. did anyone...

oh I also had this 220Mhz G3 version on one of my 1400c.. I felt quite slow though to my surprise, the 1400 is just a single bottleneck

a good method of glueing cracks or broken off standoffs is using superglue and then sprinkle some baking soda on it, can be repeated to build two or more layers ( a model maker method).. this creates a much stronger bond, standoffs will not break there again. When you use that on the inner side...

nice find.. your G3 740 reads 67Mhz, it needs the G3 installer software I guess https://macintoshgarden.org/apps/newer-technology-nupowr-g3-v103-installer-powerbook-1400-2400

the logo is on the back side of the display, did you damage it by laying it on the logo side?
