I am also interested in this. Have you reached out to BMOW?

My father passed away in May of 2020. My mother has finally started to clean out some of his old things including the PowerMac G4 he used for his business. I now work a career in IT, but this computer was the first one I was ever paid to repair, and being my fathers, it also held an incredible...

That link to the macintoshgarden is useful. It had a detail that the other places I have read did not about updating the firmware and not needing anything in the system folder. I tried to load up TattleTech, but it won't run on anything below system 6. I will take another look at this...

So I was able to get the memory replaced and got to the ? disk. The hard drive on this computer is kaput, so I have my zuluscsi in it now. The Brainstorm ROM appears to load and v1.2 displays, but the old hard drive had the accelerator on it. I was able to rip an image from my Mac Classic to...

I was looking for a replacement Mobius Speedster that was in my Dad's old IICX and found that MicroMac's website is still up. Does anyone know if they are still around or will my order form just go into a black hole of identity theft?

I am definitely interested!

Yes, there is a PDS card that has a motorola 68k chip on it, but I also noticed the crystal oscillator is close to 16Mhz and there is a brainstorm chip in a brown socket as well. I am not sure how reversible it is.

A friend of mine gifted his late father's Macintosh SE FD/HD. I tried power it on and got error codes of 0000000E and 000002FF and was able to determine two issues. One was a bad RAM stick, and the other was a missing jumper on the motherboard. I have now gotten the friendly beep and...

do you have the latest powerlogix software? Mine lets me go higher than that chip is rated for, so I don't see why it wouldn't do that with a 900 too.

I find that whenever trying to force a component into a computer it is better to use a rubber mallot instead of a hammer. These are less likely to break the parts 8D

Booted and working.

I want my dual core dos macihne to be an AIO unit, so I was wondering if this would be possible. As far as I can tell, the connectors are the same and boards are the same size. Any thoughts?

I found this guy in my home town with a bunch of DOS cards, and I picked one up cheap. I have no idea where to get the software for it though!!! Point me in the right direction please?

try booting in verbose mode and you may see that message again. It isn't that your card is too old, it just might be too old for things like quartz extreme or core image. These both will flag this message when trying to boot. I get it every time I boot my Lombard =)

the sonnet aria extreme does not work in os 9. The system recognizes that it is there, but does not see it as a wireless card. The sonnet card has a broadcom chipset too.

I am running OS X on my PB G3 Lombard and it needs a G4. I know there are upgrades for it out there, but I can't find one for the life of me that wouldn't require a government bailout to buy. Anyone got one that they are willing to sell or know where to find one?

is there any way add os 9 permissions after os x is already installed? or can i add a partition after the drive is formatted?

as far as running panther or tiger, you have to have the original system discs. It won't install without help from xpostfacto, but i can guide you along if that is the route you wish to take

i reset the PMU on the other mobo and it was to no avail. I think that the motherboard is dead. I did all of the things in the manual. bummer man.
