    Searching for CUDA button, I found this: http://akserver.dyndns.org/macosx/hw/ Site's in french, but all manuals in PDF are in english. Interesting!

    Performa 6200 does not want to boot (6360 in fact!!)

    Any idea where this could be found in Canada? At that price for a battery, I'm not sure it worths making a case manually.

    Problem booting external HD (silverlining mandatory?)

    Maybe, but when I plugged the thinks on my IIsi, same SCSI id and position in chain, did not boot. Reformatting and trying things a few times, without changing anything physically restored the boot on the disk. I see it more like a software problem, but that could be anything!

    Problem booting external HD (silverlining mandatory?)

    It was blessed, as I removed the Finder from the folder, and put it back then again. Then the System Folder icon changed. I selected the boot disk too.

    Problem booting external HD (silverlining mandatory?)

    Thanks guys for the help and explanation. Finally, the driver may not have been the problem. At first, I plugged the HD to my II (original) that's where I detected it could not boot the HD. But it was the the IIsi, where I knew it was booting before. So on the IIsi I destroyed all partitions...

    Performa 6200 does not want to boot (6360 in fact!!)

    It is written Rayovac (in red) - Computer battery clock (in white) Sounds like fun! How much those battery could cost? If I'm going with your trick, I'll have to find out a battery older (Radio Shack maybe??) and understand the last bit of your explanation! :) One could also buy battery...

    Performa 6200 does not want to boot (6360 in fact!!)

    This is where the problem start for me. This is not a 3.6V half AA battery. It is a large cubic 4.5V battery. First time I ever see that in my life. Even at first, I was searching a round battery and did not find one. Then I realized I had the battery under my nose for all that time, never...

    Performa 6200 does not want to boot (6360 in fact!!)

    May be it. But this model does not have a physical power switch (only the keyboard). So I tried power it on, then dis-re-connecting the cable and power on again, same thing. I removed the MB and disconnected the battery. I'll wait a bit, so the power will be gone, and try again. I do not have...

    Performa 6200 does not want to boot (6360 in fact!!)

    Hi, I've been given a Performa 6200. I remember seeing this computer 4 years ago, and I know it was booting then. I also know it may not have been used since, except for being moved around. When I boot it, I can hear the starting chime but then nothing happen. I plugged it to a 14" display of...

    Problem booting external HD (silverlining mandatory?)

    Hi, I have a 300meg external HD that I wanted to partitions differently. So, I used Apple HD setup to do this. I erased all partitions, then add the Mac driver and the partitions I needed. Now the HD refuses to boot if I put an OS on it. The fact is that, before I did something, the HD was...

    LC III bought from MacG4 not working

    The display is one that came with either a Mac II or IIsi era, since I got this monitor with one of them. The monitor is working well with my PM G3 beige and the IIsi and the Mac II. That display should work with the LC III too.

    LC III bought from MacG4 not working

    Hi, I bought an LCIII from MacG4 here on this forum. He told me the LC should work and has been tested, this can be true. But I have problems with it. It was not booting, no staring sound, but the HD was snipping correctly. I realize that the PRAM battery slot was empty. First, I bought PRAM...

    IIgs Display

    The packaging was OK as far as I'm concern, but the box looked a bit crushed. So far, the display was physically OK. There was a plastic corner on i that is missing, but I do not think it was because of the shipping. The green light on the display does not show up. Does the light goes on when a...

    Cannot install OS 8.0 on a beige G3

    You may be right, but according to my research it came originally with OS 8.0. In the mean time, I did something weird: I copied the OS 8.0 system folder to a partition, then upgraded it with the patch offered free on Apple's site, and it can boot a non-complete version of 8.1. It proves that...

    Cannot install OS 8.0 on a beige G3

    What I have is a generic OS 8.0 disk. It does not specify any computer specific information. And, just for information, why the machine specific CD is required? Thanks
