    1400c - mouse button not working & new PRAM battery

    I did not look at dates, but my 1400c has dual batts while the 1400cs only has one. Am I reading correctly that you are seeing the same thing?

    Making an OS 9 install as up to date as possible

    With a 9.0 CD you *should* be able to install the 9.1 update. The exceptions being specific language related IIRC. Try it.

    Making an OS 9 install as up to date as possible

    A 1400 should take 9.1 by default. If the installer is not working you might need to check what the localization is, etc. You might do a bit of googling about this if you want 9.2.2: http://eshop.macsales.com/OSXCenter/OS9Helper/Framework.cfm?topic=32 *Edit Oh, looks like it might be a bit...

    Booting Mac Plus right from ROM + some games!

    Tossing some spare sockets on the free ends of the headers to hold them straight during soldering should help.

    63x series ram slots

    I might be remembering incorrectly, but I was under the impression from some random website that the dual slot boards were the ones that took DOS cards or something. YMMV I do know that my Performa 580 board has two RAM slots and my LC 630 has only one.

    One board/chip for ROM, one for hotflashable RAMdisk?

    Booting Mac Plus right from ROM + some games!

    This is a board you could just saw in half for compatibility, is it not? As someone with a plus I am interested in seeing this project develop.

    PB G3 Wallstreet - holy fan noise, Batman!

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_spreader "A heat spreader is a heat exchanger that moves heat between a heat source, and a secondary heat exchanger whose surface area and geometry are more favorable than the source." http://www.thermacore.com/products/heat-spreaders.aspx "Heat spreaders let...

    PB G3 Wallstreet - holy fan noise, Batman!

    Just so we are on the same page, you are talking about removing the black disc, right? Black disk being the heat spreader held against the CPU die by a square plastic piece around the whole CPU package. Then the big metal plate under the keyboard is the heatsink. On the underside of the black...

    PB G3 Wallstreet - holy fan noise, Batman!

    A few years ago I pulled my PDQ out and the fan had started running constantly. I unplugged it. Perhaps because I live in Canada or not, I have never heard the fan come on under any load and I had actually tried using it on soft surfaces at some point in the past. The fan in my Lombard also ran...

    Mac mini PPC/Intel Power Supply

    Internet says 18.5v for 2009 models and earlier, is that right?If both PSUs put out the same voltage but one is lower wattage, then you are talking less current. As long as you do not trip the PSU's overcurrent protection it should work for testing purposes. If anything is going to die it would...

    Solar Powered Mac/PC Laptop?

    That is really sad. I used to push four hours with my (very cheap low end model from 2009 keep in mind) HP DV4-1225DX while internetting on a new high capacity battery, and that had a terribly wasteful AMD CPU. IDK what my Thinkpad T510(from 2010 or something mind you) would do with a new...

    Fixed my Powerbook G4 After Death

    Well, about the thermal compound, I personally have a preference for IC Diamond. Even more so when it is going to be in use for a long time since it resists pump-out. However ICD is likely overkill for a PB. For anything like old notebooks that I care less about or something I am likely to take...

    G4 MDD idles at 136 F / 58 C

    I am not sure how hot MDDs normally run but have you made sure the fan you installed was pointing in the correct direction for the MDD case?(and not just the same direction as the previous aftermarket fan was installed) Also, have you checked any other fans to ensure someone did not screw around...

    Can my SE/30 play doom?

    According to a quick google, DOOM II requires 256 colours and 68LC040 above your setup. http://www.allgame.com/game.php?id=532&tab=sysreqs But you can always try the Shareware MacDoom in the non-DOS section: http://www.doomworld.com/classicdoom/info/shareware.php Apparently Ultimate DOOM...

    Apple Older Software Downloads

    Because it is from the mid 90s, and they are paying to host something that has had no bearing on anything they have sold in pretty much two decades at the least. It is nice when you get this sort of resource hanging around for decades but honestly, a _lot_ of the people using it these days never...

    Radeon X1900XT reliable?

    All the information you need for flashing the 7800GS or X1900XT is all online. Make sure to backup the original ROMs first! I have not looked at info for either of these cards in a long while but I would bet flashing them in a PC would be easiest.
