A while ago I had purchased an SE/30 from eBay. A very nice system with tons of programs and interesting extensions. I fired it up and started to explore the hard drive. Then the screen flickered and I got a system bomb. From then on, whenever the SE/30 was tapped or moved, it crashed and the...

well does the daystar xlr8 upgrade for 12" powrbooks also increse the graphical capabilities, or just the processor?

Would it be possible to up the graphics of a 12" powerbook 1.5 to 128mb? Any ideas?

Hi I recently bought a 12" Powerbook G4 on ebay. Everything works great, but there is a problem with the cd drive. The felt that is on the opening of the drive is missing. When a cd is inserted or ejected, it gets a few scratches. Does anybody know how to replace the felt lining?

In the auctions, he posted that the reserve price was over $300. That probably set bidders off. Why would they bid if they couldn't buy it?

The schools here are oblivious to macs. The kids thought what you could do in windows movie maker was amazing. They should see Ilife.

When I was in school, the floppy drives would be jammed with pencils.

MYST!!!!!!!!!!

I tried that but because I did the VGA upgrade, I get no video with the original color classic mobo.

I did clean the mobo and wiring harness contacts with windex. Do you think windex is not powerful enough? Should I use rubbing alcohol?

Yeah, I looked at the FAQ and tried the video board repairs. I resoldered the only dull joint and it changed nothing. Also, I replaced the VRAM chips on the MOBO but that didn't help either.

The Color Classic MOBO is really an LC, so it can support 640x480. Depending on how much vram you have, you may be stuck with 16 colors.

1. The HD is plugged in properly and getting power. 2. How would i get it to become un-jammed so it can spin?

Well, if the video sense lines are the same, then it should work

what did they do?! Burn it or something?! :O

I tried everything you said. Now the LED starts flashing every few seconds. I think this means it is dead. My next idea is to leave it on for around 20 minutes and then try it again.

Hi I recently pulled my Mac IIci from storage and tried to boot it up. The internal HD didn't start (it is a quantum). Is there any way I can fix the HD, or should I just pitch it? :?:

OK I cleaned the wiring harness that connects the motherboard, HD, floppy drive, and analog board together. I think the frequency of the red flickering has slowed down but it hasn't stopped altogether. Would the wiring harness from a 575 work with the color classic? Or should I try to clean the...
