For owners of 2400c's, I've been having an issue with my 2400c. I had GLOD but I figured out how to get out of it, which works for my 2400c. Now, whenever I shut down, and leave for ~24 hours, it won't boot unless I plug the PB into power adapter, and keep the PRAM-Reset Button pressed for some...

I am just inquiring right now, but I was wondering what this forum's thoughts are concerning the pros and cons of G5 versus Intel. I don't necessarily need the latest and the greatest hardware (not hardcore Mac Pro with quad cores or anything) I see the following pros for G5: PPC which means...

Just wondering what websites do you guys know of where I can buy used vintage mac software? I know of retrosoftware.com and welovemacs.com but any others? Just trying to see what old software piques my interest from the good old days. Thanks!

How the devil do folks here get epic hauls like that? I'd love to just get boxes that I can rummage in at my leisure =) That would be awesome! Congrats on a great haul like that!!! You'll have months and months of fun, until your next haul!

I have a newer printer but I want to use these in OS8/9, sorry for the confusion. Alternatively, should I just setup some sort of print server? That might be a neat project but before we jump on that, how can I use newer printers on older macs? PS: my subject line is absolutely misleading! My...

I am curious about finding drivers or shareware drivers that can let me use the newer printers (like Canon's Pixma printers) in OS9 or even 8? I haven't used those OS's in awhile, but I have older OS8/9 compatible macs that I'd like to print from to my newer printers. Any help?

I stand corrected. WPC54GS, not WRT54GS. My bad. I guess I was wrong about assuming OS9 compatiblity. Good luck!

The best one that I know will work is the Linksys WRT54GS (the S is for Speedboost). Also the Linksys WRT54G v1 will work. I do not know about version two. Both of these Wireless G cards use the Broadcom chipset that is in all of Apple's Airport Cards (not Airport Extreme now, that is a Wireless...

2400c is by far my most favorite...I actually like it better than my PB G4 12". I like the PBG4 but the brushed aluminum just irritates me when it overheats. Now, onto 2400c accessories...

2400c 180/80 1400c/166 Free 9600/300 (500+ MB of Ram, but forgot the #) Free ATI Rage 128 PCI, Geforce4 AGP Card, Random SCSI PCI Card Techtool Pro 4 ($10!) Free WGS 8150 (it's just sitting there...) Free ANS 700/132 (needs a new power supply) w00t! While I paid a pretty penny for the...

How amazing! I got a Quadra 800 a few months back and it was just abysmal what I got (upside, it was free). The case was duct taped together NO A/V type ports, the Nubus slots were all empty so obviously the previous owner knew what the goodies were. I have hope that I can rehabilitate though!!

This may be obvious but maybe I missed something... When you added the RAM, did you take out the processor daughter card (it's got that funky heatsink appendage thing with it) to access the bottom RAM slot? If so, you have to be very *firm* when reslotting the processor. You may feel like you...

Problem solved. I just installed Panther on the system and it boots past the upset screen I saw when on Jaguar. Very odd behavior as the last time I used Jaguar was on my Pismo (didn't get a chance to use Panther since my Pismo got stolen from me). It's been a few years but finally got this one...

I think you guys may be right about a dud disk (THANKS Apple... actually I got it as a promo so it was technically free). But with the RAM, I still need RAM chips, I know I need to get 144-pin PC100 SO DIMMs, but what of the quality? I don't want Bad RAM chips and I'm not made of gold since...

This is absolutely weird! I think maybe it IS the RAM because I just tried installing Jaguar 10.2.4 on ANOTHER Pismo this time with less RAM (64 MB) and it still does the video thing. It could be that the install disks are bad...happened on two separate occasions with the same Jaguar install...

I've no idea the quality of the RAM but I removed the RAM chip and to my dismay it wouldn't even boot the Jaguar installer disc.... The HD is 10GB not that big, ever hear of this Jaguar issue? Also, I notice that it's just sluggish to boot OSX in general although system is responsive (due to...

Yea actually, 384 MB to be exact...any ideas on what's going on? Reason is I want to update to Jaguar so I can use a USB Wireless (have one lying around) thought it'd be neat, nifty, clever without resorting to Airport. Is there a workaround to use a D-Link USB Wireless G adaptor without having...

These forums are so great for help so here's a dilly of a pickle: I have a Pismo that I just got and initialized the HD and zeroed all data. I have a retail copy of Jaguar which I attempted to install on it. After installation (base install, no localized languages etc..) I reboot and it gets...

I was poking around eBay and noticed that there were some 8xxx series cards too, do those work? Is the 9200 too powerful? Also, what about Voodoo 5 cards? Can I flash those and have it work on my mac or is there simply no software that could flash it on such an old machine? Thanks for the...

Is the Radeon 7000 series the last cards to work with the 9600 (OS8/9)? I'd like to take it to the limit! what about display cards? Stock it came with an ixMicro Twin Turbo type card, other cards out there that fit the 9600?
