    PowerBook Maintenance Checklist and advice?

    The 68000 PB screen capacitors are bad all over the place and if there are any artifacts on the screen its a pretty sure bet that they need to be replaced. Remove or replace  the battery and replace the capacitors on the screen inverter board while you are in there. If the hinges are intact...

    Bernoulli Drive fixes, ?any experiences anyone

    I've tried Lido and Blue disk manager on a plus  and G3...same results, finds the drive, but does not acknowledge the presence of a disk (no media inserted).  He stops when he got down to the part that exposes the heads....I thought if you could clean the heads after 35 years it would be a good...

    Bernoulli Drive fixes, ?any experiences anyone

    The one that started to format was recognized by system 9.1 with "This disk in unrecognizable, do you want to format?", then stopped during the process. I've tried Lido, PLI formatter, SCSI director, Bluedisk manager and Silver lining. The switch is set to SCSI.

    Bernoulli Drive fixes, ?any experiences anyone

    I had a great experince  with a SCSI Sony magneto optical drive and decided to keep checking out older scsi removable media devices. Found a Jaz drive and it is, thus far, infinitely better than the zip. I found a couple of bernoulli 150 MB external SCSI drives and they both turn on, the scsi...

    Enjoy the CRT acrylic monitor...its really a nice one. That was one of two I had and the one I grabbed to meet you. When I found that one it had been in storage for years and the antireflective coating was like a spider web, but it came off completely with glass cleaner and elbow grease. The one...

    Installaing MacOS 7.6.1 from CD on PowerBook 180

    Have you tried holding down shift-option-command-del and the external drive SCSI ID number? i think they will recognize some external CD drives but no others, be sure to try a few times.

    DVD ROM

    These guys were't kidding. This is an old SCSI drive from Club Mac (pioneer inside). It reads single layer DVD ROM and that is ALL.

    Studio Display m7613

    Ditto...take it apart and get the number....I have have taken a few apart several of the ADC LCD monitors, expecting to find the same part number, but haven't. Did replace the beat up  LCD in a 17 inch with good results but probably got lucky with located that exact part number at a cost less...

    Help identifying a generic (Apple II?) external floppy drive

    Perfect..thank you. I googled searched but couldn't narrow it down. It spins but no LED. I have ROM version 0, so I cannot boot. I did use Apple Utilities disk to format and duplicate a disk....it all the commands went through and it thought it duplicated but the duplicate didn't work. Will...

    Help identifying a generic (Apple II?) external floppy drive

    I picked this up locally planning to use it with a IIc. It looks the part, it even came from the local school system. The last 2 characters on the model number are even "GS". There is a disk inside it...Wheel of Fortune" form 1988 that says on the label "Boot DOS disk (version 2.11 or greater)...

    I have  PB 160 and 520c  that, aside from the hinges, have been good. found one non-working Duo about 2 years ago...now have gone down the rabbit hole and have a bin full of parts for duo's without a single working unit. Not recommended.

    Apple DVI to ADC adapter does NOT work on CRT with ADC connector

    Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone. This one has one minimal scratch lower left that is almost impossible to see when it is on. It looks great...the guy who put it on Craigs list didn't know anything about it except that it had been in storage. The screen looked awful at first with a grey...
