    Mac Classic stuck on boot

    Yes, I'm getting the chime. The floppy makes no movement, no sound. I can't hear any "chatter" from the HDD heads either. I haven't scoped out the bus and looked for activity. I would be inclined to guess that there's no corrosion underneath the SWIM, as it is far away from the area affected by...

    Mac Classic stuck on boot

    I'm working on a Mac Classic that suffered the usual battery damage in the top right corner of the board. I recapped the mainboard and fixed broken traces and vias.

    How to adjust monitor in iMac G3?

    Sound device disappeared Sorbet Leopard on G4 Cube

    I had a working installation of Sorbet Leopard on my G4 Cube. When I ran the script to enable the HK iSub 2000 speakers, the sound device was gone entirely. Running the uninstall script didn't bring sound back. The boot chime has disappeared and the sound device on all other partitiones (OS 9.2...

    G4 Cube with no picture

    Here I have a Cube, which turns on and boots into MacOS alright (confirmed by getting sound, sleep, ecject CDs etc) but shows no picture whatsover.

    How to install software on Macintosh Plus?

    Yes, but that is my question: whether I can put such files on an SD card and into a BlueSCSI or similar, or if those files will also become corrupted.
