604e thanks a million for the schematic. I've been so busy I haven't yet tried to apply your suggestion, I will as soon as I have a little free time. Cory, thanks for the experiential note, you may be right. What I can say is that tabbed folders (those that rest at the bottom of the screen)...

The internet archive is one of the internet's most important sites. Happy that you found some info!

Go to archive.org and search text contents for Creative Solutions Inc. They appear to have had the same phone number and CSI might be Creative Solutions Inc.

Check the service manual, I believe this machine may have an internal battery. I know that my iMac G3 333Mhz model had a blown battery, it had a similar symptom, checking it I discovered a leaked battery. In my case I had to replace the logic board (the daughter card was ok)

Is there a link to the said guide?

Hello Excellent of you to share your findings. I do indeed know about this page, it is a terrific page actually. Thanks for participating in the conversation with the link and experience! Aha! Yes I thought I did read this somewhere, slot order does matter, it is mentioned in the link you...

Thanks 360 but no one has 4.1.4. The macrepo only has 4.1.1 as does the garden. Thanks for the reply.

I just love the historical bits that some of you are adding to the discussion. Really fascinating!

I was unable to find it on the internet, who owns the copyright, has ownership been transferred. Does anyone know the status of this product?

That's correct, mine is the Apple OEM. Interesting tidbit on swapping ROMs between cards.

Something interesting happened, after removing the  /SystemFolder/Preferences/Display Preferences the display really slowed down. This was especially noticeable with tabbed folders. So I added "9600 Graphics Accelerator" Extension back, restarted and things are back to normal. I think I can't...

On driver concerns/mentions for the Twin Turbo 128 - According to http://oldcomputer.info/apple/Power9600/index.htm the upgrades section mentions that Mac OS 9.1 has the video driver built-in for the stock card which is the same as the one he has a photo of in the following link...

Hi Thanks for the reply. Currently the Power Mac 9600 has the video that card that came original for this machine. I just powered the machine on to gather the card details. According to the Apple System Profiler, the display card is in Slot B1. It's a Twin Turbo 128. The only problem I have...

Hello forum members I am enjoying my 9600/300 but the stock GPU card is something of a snail. I understand the ATI Radeon 9200 is an option that I can consider. Are there any special requirements? Does the card have to be specific to Mac and if not can the hardware for a PC model be modified...

Hi, just an update, I settled with an Eizo FlexScan L768, works well but it's a tad old a slightly blurry but I think it's the age of the monitor. Then again it was VERY cheap. Earlier I said I went with a L568 but I must have typed that by mistake. Thanks!

I went for this very affordable EIZO L568 in white. I like it because it also does swivel and will provide native support for the 9600 which I plan to use with much more regularity than the Quadra 950. Thanks LaPorta! There is even Mac OS 9.2.2 support, which I can't run on the Power Macintosh...

Wonderful, thank you for taking the time to write back LaPorta!

Hello I have a few vintage macs and there are two that I would particularly like to connect to a more modern (likely a used 10 year old) LCD. So I have about 5 different adapters on hand and that help get XGA+ or something else out of these machines. I have a Quadra 950 (built in video) with...

@pcamen I did rebuild the internal battery for a powerbook 2400c only. It is not difficult to do. Unfortunately it did nothing for the powerbook 2400c, it remains in GLOD mode. 

Hello I need everyone here who is passionate about software preservation to read this. The purpose here is not to break any rules but as an archivist and I can't really help myself. So here is the deal, we all know that these shiny discs that we all love and the bits that are sitting there are...
