    PowerBook 14x or 170, 180 Battery NiMH recell

    I actually just have 5 cells in series.  I just wanted to give it a shot and not spend the money on a ton of cells.  They are literally just amazonbasics rechargeable AAs

    PowerBook 14x or 170, 180 Battery NiMH recell

    So I recently replaced the cells in my PowerBook 145B battery, and it works great, charges without a problem, and gets decent life.  The only issue is the fact that the battery monitor build into the OS is designed for NiCAD Cells, when I recelled with NiMH as you can't get NiCADs anymore.  Is...

    Maybe, what kind of print engine does it use?  The 2200 is a Canon Bubblejet cartridge

    Best video card for 500 MHz Sawtooth?

    I'm looking for the best card with OS9 accelleration as well as 10.4 for my 500 MHz Sawtooth.  I use a DVI monitor, and it would be best if the card could output 1920x1200.  What are my options?  Probably not going to play too many games, and I don't have a preference between ATI or nVidia. Thanks!

    Discharging a CRT - video

    CRTs make good capacitors, and they will pick up charge from the atmosphere.  I would discharge it if you have to touch the analog board, if you don't, just leave well enough alone. Alex is correct in that they can build up charge.

    IlikeTech's Stuff

    Wow, its been forever since I posted anything here!  I got a PowerMac G4 AGP 500 MHz today, as well as a TiBook 867.  That TiBook is beat to hell, and one of the hinges is nearly broken.  It works, but the screen has a couple lines.  The G4 had a dead PSU, but one ATX swap later, it's working...

    Powerbook 5300c Power Issue

    So I swapped the caps on the power board, and am still having the same issue.  The only one i didn't replace is that tiny electrolytic.  I guess I need to replace that one as well?  The symptoms are strange.  Is there any way to jumper the PMU board to power it on?  I wonder if there is because...

    Powerbook 5300c Power Issue

    Hi, I was recently given a PowerBook 5300c.  I resoldered the power connector, but that didn't help.  The issue I'm having is that most of the time, when I plug it in, the sleep light comes on, and the power key does nothing.  I can't get it to boot.  I pulled the PRAM battery, but that didn't...

    Craving the companionship of a cool Color Classic

    It broke in the same place mine did.  I was able to fix mine with abs cement, which is really a solvent.  It looks pretty decent.  Is that the only break? Those crappy packing jobs really do a number on the systems.  Hopefully it was insured?

    Color Classic doesn't boot off external HD

    It's cause when you do that it has a driver.

    Color Classic doesn't boot off external HD

    Sounds good.  It's created by whatever formatting software you use.  The disk image I sent Evie is made with a Lido driver image, the one linked on the site.

    Color Classic doesn't boot off external HD

    Okay so some important info is that you can't just DD a raw HFS filesystem to the card.  You need a driver as well. http://www.codesrc.com/mediawiki/index.php/HFSFromScratch These are the instructions I used to create the Image after installing 7.6 with BasiliskII. IlikeTech

    The two 27128 EPROMs add up to 32k of storage in addition to the stock Apple ROMs which are installed on it.

    I checked the state of the collection, but ...

    @patatas Um I think you just resurrected a thread from over two years ago and that person hasn't been on in over two years.  I doubt you will get a reply.

    Mac Rom Enhancer - Any idea what it did?

    I doubt that kit has a system on it.  It only adds an additional 32K of ROM!

    3D Print Replica HD 20 SC Enclosure?

    Hmm that would be great.  I wonder, what thickness acrylic do you want?  The laser can do up to 1/4 inch easily.

    3D Print Replica HD 20 SC Enclosure?

    I mean the clip should just stick through the front, so that should be fine.  Hmm.
