    Quadra 605 not booting

    I just replaced the PRAM battery today. Cost me $22.59 at The Source. I haven't tried booting from a floppy yet; all of my floppies are at my parents place. I'm going to be visiting my parents this weekend so I'll try a floppy and I'll try the hard drive from my 700.

    Quadra 605 not booting

    I've tried to boot with the hard drive disconnected and I got the floppy icon with the flashing question mark. That's pretty much as expected. I tried pulling the 32MB SIMM that's in it and booting with just the 4MB onboard and the problem remained the same, just a little faster.

    Quadra 605 not booting

    I bought a Quadra 605 a couple of months ago and am just getting around to playing with it now. The problem is that it doesn't seem to want to boot. I get the startup chime and a mouse pointer on a grey screen. I also get a happy Mac icon in the middle of the screen. The hard drive...

    MAC LC475 arrived, discovered it has ethernet...now what

    There's usually two LEDS but some NICs have only one. The LED should light when a connection is established and blink when there is activity. Since your LED does not light up it is due to one of two reasons: 1) Your NIC is not connecting to your router/switch/hub, or 2) Your NIC is not...

    Are you sure about that, uni? My 5200 did 800x600 without any modification. Yep, everymac.com confirms 800x600 and 832x624 in 8-bit (256 colors). http://www.everymac.com/systems/apple/mac_performa/specs/mac_performa_5200cd.html

    Creating video DVDs in Tiger

    I'm looking for software that will let me burn videos to a video DVD that will playback in a DVD player. I can do it using Toast 11 on my MBP, but I want to do it on my Mac Mini G4. Any help appreciated. I'll consult Google as well. Thanks.

    Quadra 605

    Nope. No special plans for it. I was thinking that I'd run Mac OS 8.1 on it. Maybe throw WordPerfect on it.

    Quadra 605

    Got my Quadra 605 in the mail today. It came in the original box and was fully intact -- no broken plastics or anything like that.

    Booting from external DVD drive

    Okay, so I need a cable. I'm pretty sure my Mini is a FW400 port and I'll have to check on my MBP's firewire.

    Booting from external DVD drive

    How would I do that? Put the DVD in one Mac and access it via FireWire? My only other OS X machine is my MacBook Pro, which runs Snow Leopard.

    Booting from external DVD drive

    I have a Mac Mini G4 and a Leopard install DVD. For some reason, my Mac Mini won't read the DVD in the internal drive so I can't boot from it. I also have an external USB drive. I would like to boot from the external drive. Is this possible? If so, how? Thanks p.s. I've tried holding...

    Quadra 605

    Dibs on a Quadra 605. I've always wanted one and now I'm getting one. It doesn't come with a hard drive, but that's okay. It's got a 32MB SIMM that I'll replace with a 128MB SIMM for a total of 132MB. I also have a full '040 kicking around, so I'll swap CPUs too. I love it when a Mac comes...

    Essential Software for a G4 Mac running Tiger
