    Powerbook Kanga G3 CD drive not spinning

    I cleaned it out with a q-tip and found a tiny piece of sheet metal or something, the size of a match head. This could have been blocking it. Haven't used this laptop much, it came with a 3400 box that it sits inside like a vampire. The previous owner could have switched drives rather violently...

    Powerbook Kanga G3 CD drive not spinning

    Ok, I was digging around and found a third 3400 CD module. I popped it in, and it READS the CD. :D But how is my old module and "new" module both unresponsive? Bad luck? I will do some more switching and seeing if I can get the first two going again. I am happy with at least one working...

    Powerbook Kanga G3 CD drive not spinning

    Hello! I haven't used my Kanga G3 in a while and thought I would play some starcraft on it today. Any CD I put in doesn't spin up. I see the little green LED light up, sometimes blink but no sound coming from the drive. I have a brand new CD module I put in to rule out the old one being dead...

    SE/30, Installing Battery Packs, *Crazy Idea*

    I had a power outage a few years ago, got bored and took the batteries out of an old scooter to power a tv and nintendo. The junk batteries lasted 30 minutes of playing. I used an auto power inverter. With a lunchbox or something full of new batteries, it would be really enjoyable to see a se/30...

    Alps Glidepoint Keypad

    I haven't done much testing besides on the Classic. I am guessing it is a whole lot better with a bigger screen and the correct OS for the control panel. Haven't had time to try it on that but otherwise it's the same as you'd imagine a trackpad on a 9inch black and white screen. It is on a speed...

    Alps Glidepoint Keypad

    This thing is pretty neat. It could be good for a numeric keypad game. Right now it's hooked up to my Classic drawing stupid pictures in paint. There is another on eBay still if anyone is interested. I like it so far and recommend it as a mouse replacement if you like touch-pads. I haven't got...

    Getting my Compact Mac online with local talk

    Hey everyone, I'm looking for some advice on how to get my Classic or SE/30 online through a local talk connection. Right now I have a Powerbook 190 with an Orinoco wireless card and localtalk bridge connecting my Classic to my XP machine using software called PC MACLAN. That's the closest to...

    a Power Macintosh x200 Ever drove you Crazy? Trying to use?

    I have a 5200 LC 75 that is yellowed but still functions properly. I responded to a local ad for a mac classic and this was a freebie being tossed in. It is missing the stand but still sits upright just fine. If anyone is around the Chicagoland area and wants it (60190), it is free to pick up...
