Very cool thank you! Will test on some of my machines

That's a strange one, the first generation PPCs can be tricky. Have you tried removing the Sonnet and booting without it? I know for sure that a 6100 will give the exact same symptoms without a new/good battery. Did you use an anti-static wrist strap? I killed a machine of the same generation...

Hello! I'm finishing a new application called Conversant, it's a chat room/messenger application for Macintosh. There's some small bugs I'm aware of already but I wanted to get some feedback on pain points and any issues that may occur during use. It's very simple at this stage, and is only...

Wow amazing work!!

Yeah I bought it from MacVidCards years ago. Bootcamp was fantastic and ran all current games well up until around ~5 years ago, maybe an upgraded GPU would have helped.

Nice one!! I've got the same model and love it, it's insanely versatile. Until ~5 years ago I used it as my work from home computer and gaming PC with an NVIDIA GTX 770 (4GB) on Windows 7. I still use it today for work, but there's so many different systems you can run on it with ease. One...

There's at least one on the logic board near the PCMCIA slot, and three on the underside of the power card :confused:

The 500Mhz CPU is nice! They're quite hard to find now. I'm pretty sure the power cards fail on the Pismo often. I had the same issue, no power or signs of life but after replacing the power card from another Pismo (working) it booted normally. It would be worth re-capping the machine as this is...

Thank you @dosdude1, much appreciated!

@treellama where did you source your AM29F040B from? Should I be looking for one that operates at 12v? In the datasheets I've looked at for AM29F040B these models run at 5v and I haven't been able to find anything on eBay that explicitly gives an operating voltage.

@GRudolf94 I got in touch with Diemen Efiter last year and they said they no longer have any stock, I'm unsure if this is the same company.

I tried ordering some from here, I'm not sure how valid this site is though and I couldn't proceed because it looked like you needed a Brazilian ID to finish sign up. Now I can't delete my account and get spammed by them all the time :LOL:

Thank you! I managed to get three new flybacks a while ago but haven't found someone to help me install them yet. If there's a large quantity I'd be interested in one or two, but otherwise I've got enough and I'm sure others would benefit from them

We're currently 33% funded, let's go iMac owners!

Fantastic thank you @maceffects!!

I've been restoring a few of my iPods recently and found that all of them get stuck in boot loops when either the HD is bad or I've installed a new SSD. To fix this I formatted the new drive before putting it in the iPod, and if it still gets stuck I'd restore the drive from an iPod disk image I...

Very interesting! Thanks for the explanation @MrFahrenheit, I have never really looked into termination before and this explains a few things I've come across. Very helpful!

Nice work! I can't wait to try it!!
