The only difference is my ROM chip has a different number than yours but pretty much every thing else looks the same. Does yours have the thin green wire on the back of it? The chip is LC ROM 438D. I just happen to have another ethernet card I can not use either because it has a weird...

Hey, I have this exact card and it does NOT work in any of my machines either. The Macintoshes see it but always gives an error. Did you by chance get this card to ever work?

Greetings. Hope you are all well. I have a rather odd question. I have a power Macintosh 7200/90 and it works and all but when I use Tech Tool pro to check its specs; tech tool reports the processor as running at 75 mhz and it says the system reports the speed as 90 mhz. According to Apple its...

Lol...its not all that bad, what I dont like is the arrows and that is because alot of Macintosh games make use of the arrows......Them being in a row I constantly press wrong keys. Other than that, keyboard is awesome. I barley used the function keys on the extended ones so don't really miss...

ya! I would be interested as well. I bet they have at least two platters though. Those ELS drives seem to be the most popular of the bunch as that is what I see mostly inside the 80 meg option machines.

Woah...That computer is sweet! Never seen a monitor like that before....Like the arcade games back when I was a kid.

Techknight, thanx for the tip on the head thing with the paper/ toothpick. I did not know that and its great information. And Awesome about your drive... I never looked inside one of the LPS drives but would assume they would be similar; as what you described with the bumper and post is how the...

Yes...this repair is rather quick, can be done in 5 mins or less. Its super easy too. :) Right, it is just preventing it from returning to home position, though it seems to be working out so far. However, on my drives the bumper was on the other side of where I was putting the foam at. Yes...

So I might have found a possible soloution as I have now reapried all three of my broken 80 meg Quantum ELS Prodrives; to fully working condition again. This is by no means a professional repair but more of a jimmy rig which you have to do to fix lol. But I figured I was not taking a loss since...

I still am tinkering with this LC and still no luck. I no longer get the popping sound from the speaker with the head phone jack but, with powered speakers and the Mac's volume on max, I get faint, very faint sound. Its either the head phone jack is messed up or the sound chip is shot. I have no...

Yes! I can definatly see what you mean about the screen. Its a good change to look back at the old style monitors... If your using the keyboard I think you are using, I also dis-like it. Its layout is horrible...I get the whole space thing but still, what was apple thinking lol. Do you use...

Thats awesome! I love seeing suped-up Macs. I even more love seeing these Macintoshes being used still! Still such an awesome machine and great little runners.

Ok. Thank you all for your help! So I got my Quadra 605 to finally go online I had to use the open transport extension from my power mac 5500 using OS 9. I just coppied it to a floppy and put in my Quadra. I am unable to get to use internet explorer 4.0 on any of my other pizza box macs. None...

Hello. Its great to hear you got your Mac LC 475 online. I too have an LC 475 and a Quadre 605 and am unable to get both online. I have microsoft IE browser for 68k macs; I believe its IE 4.5. It installs fine and will open up and attempt to load a page, but no page will load. Keeps giving me an...

Those poor Macintoshes...I went through all my Macintoshes and pulled all the batterys out, Even the square ones that were in my Performa 631cd and Power Mac 5500/225. Both seemed ok but the one in the Power Mac seemed to be buldging. Seems I pulled it in the nic of time thanx to these posts and...

Evening! Thank you all for your reply as well as the warm greeting; it is greatly appreciated. :) I have checked over the board numerous times; even using a flashlight to see if I could see any break in the traces. I never see any but that would make sence. Is there anything in particular I...

Greetings! I am a long time reader, new member and first post. I think its fantastic that there is people who are into these awesome machines and there is a site totally devoted to this. Awesome! I can remember my first taste of a Macintosh Computer it was when I was in fifth grade. I first saw...
