Torn on which OS to put onto a 5300ce. While 8.6 can run on it, are any features over 8.1 worth the performance trade off?  It’s too slow for Classilla to be significantly usable. Current specs are near stock, including 1.2 (?) GB hard drive and 800*600 LCD. However, it does have the RAM at...

Not sure if anyone is still following this thread. The pages here seem to match up to some of the pages visible in that eBay listing, as well as the Micron Xceed ROM.sit file containing a folder called Rob is Barts Friend, looks interesting but I haven't had a chance to actually look through...

Unfortunately, it bombs out (type 10) while loading :/  It made it just far enough to show off the splash screen, so definitely farther along than normal (an outright error about requiring a floating point unit). Definitely check it out.  I grew up playing it on Windows computers.  Had no idea...

I haven’t! Never heard of it before, but I’ll give it a go tomorrow :)  thank you!

Definitely an edge case, but Space Cadet Pinball (aka Windows 95-XP pinball, Mac version) requires an FPU. (IIRC it requires a 33mhz 030 + fpu, any 040 + fpu, or any ppc). Was quite sad when it wouldn’t open on my PowerBook 540c. Maybe one day I’ll get a donor 550c full 040 cpu card. That...

Despite passing hardware diagnostics, I wouldn’t rule out faulty RAM too soon. If you have enough (such as 8 sticks), try running with just 4 sticks. If one batch happens to be 256k then you will be knocked back to system 6 with that 1MB of RAM but just for testing purposes. Try different...

If you have others working just fine, I’d try taking one of their SD cards, put it in the problematic unit, and see if that rules out the issue. If yes, formatting issue. If issue persists, firmware configuration issue on the SCSI2SD itself. If that’s the case, I’d download the firmware from the...

I generally just stick to 1.99gb partitions (except for my pm6100 that I let utilize the whole sd card), just to be safe.

@techknight if I’m not mistaken (though I may be), the SCSI2SD v5.x boards have on board termination and I want to say it is enabled out of the box (physically on older red boards, via firmware on newer green boards) I’ve had great luck setting up ~5 of these (SE/30, SE FDHD, CC, LC520/50, and...

Thank you @Juror22 and @OleLila for the advice. I usually try to avoid taking things apart until I have all the replacement pieces on hand so I can complete the project in one go, but it’s looking like that won’t be possible in this case. I’ll probably open it up next weekend and see if I can’t...

Bump, anyone?

Hi all, I bought a 15” Apple Studio Display, model M7613. It’s one of the early flat panel displays that matches the early PowerMac G4 plastics (think 350mhz G4, AGP graphics model, and maybe the digital audio model?), with a DVI and USB connector, and 1024*768 resolution. At any rate, the LCD...

+1 for Lido :)

@ants Thank you for all your help on this. Do you remember which retailer you got your 16M version at? Both Amazon and Newegg only carry the 16M version with internal antennas.

@ants I was actually just typing up an update when I saw your reply. I found that same OpenWRT page too (https://openwrt.org/unsupported/nand_flash).  No worries, now we know so we can document this so that anyone else that attempts this setup knows which version to purchase. :) Did some...

@ants Gave that image a try, but still the same error. Basic Interface (non-advanced settings): Listed at bottom of screen: Model ar300m NAND (so I think you are right on the nand version, I'll give a few more nand options a try) Luci Interface: Here are some details from the system...

@ants I'm trying to get this set up, however I seem to be hitting a roadblock.  While trying to upgrade my GL-AR300m mini router to a current (18.x) version of OpenWRT (using image openwrt-18.06.4-ar71xx-generic-gl-ar300m-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin) from within the Luci interface, I get the message...

Try using Lido to format your card into 2gb partitions.

Congratulations! That monitor needs some adjustment. The Macintosh TV service manual will have the instructions(it will specify cutoffs, how much black border, etc), and I think you will need Apple display service program to show the patterns. overall though, looks good! Startup chime loud and...

A different type of conquest today. I managed to successfully pack and ship a Macintosh TV from Arizona to New York and it arrived safe and sound, in one piece. With everyone’s experiences shipping LC 5xx based systems, I was extremely hesitant. In the end, I went with the following: Heavy...
