    iMac G3 Rev A-D FSB bus overclock

    Hi, after finding a compatible SSD, I tried overclocking the bus. IT WORKS! Although the system profile still indicates 233MHz, Gauge Pro tells us that we have a 290MHz CPU and an 83MHz bus. It works with two PC100 RAM modules.

    iMac G4 700 display issue

    I don't know if the inverter pinout will be the same as for a 17", but it seems that to install an LED kit I must use the 4 upper cables.

    iMac G4 700 display issue

    I'm bringing you some news. I was investigating how LCD screens work and I consulted a friend who has repaired one. I verified that once the image is turned off, focusing with a flashlight you can still see video, so the problem is in the lighting, either the inverter or the tubes that...

    Designing Firewire card for Mezzanine??

    You're right about that. I was counting on being able to use a generic card. I have a couple of generic ones that I made work with a Lombard, the problem is that they do not allow target or boot. Custom firmware would be required if it is designed completely.

    Designing Firewire card for Mezzanine??

    Seeing that each of us would use it differently, perhaps the best option is a mezzanine to PCMCIA adapter, perhaps double PCMCIA as in the old powerbooks. This adapter would be easier to make: mezzanine connector to flat cable, and in the case, from flat cable to PCMCIA (adding necessary...

    Designing Firewire card for Mezzanine??

    Hi, I'm starting a lot of posts these days, I hope I'm not bothering you. I was reading about the Mezzanine port on the iMac G3 tray loading, and I see it was a "normal" PCI port under a non-standard connector, the mezzanine. Is this true? If so, would someone with circuit design skills be...

    iMac G3 Rev A-D FSB bus overclock

    Thank you so much for recovering the link!! Now I know how to do it. I'm going to write it down and save it so I don't lose it again. We've preserved other information!! When I have changed the HDD for SSD I will try it.

    iMac G4 700 display issue

    Thanks for your reply. Can you find me a photo of those two components that may fail? so I can identify them, I'm not used to working with screens. The symptom repeats itself every time I start it, I don't really know how to diagnose it. In my question about the wiring, I was wondering what...

    iMac G3 Rev A-D FSB bus overclock

    Well, I don't remember, I only keep this link that doesn't work and a note that I should move two "0ohm" resistors. bus overclock Good find, those three resistors on the motherboard, although they should not be in use, because for 66MHz there should be 2 resistors there. The schematic...

    iMac G3 Rev A-D FSB bus overclock

    thanks for the information. Then I must add R140 to reach 83MHz. I can't locate R139. About 15 years ago I already did this FSB overclock and it was stable at 83MHz, with PC100 RAM.

    iMac G3 Rev A-D FSB bus overclock

    Hello, I am writing to you because the information on the Internet is getting lost. Many years ago I overclocked the FSB on one of these iMacs from 66MHz to 83MHz, but I don't have the documentation and I can't find anything on the Internet. Does anyone remember how to do it? Any photos and...

    iMac G4 700 display issue

    Hello everyone. I recently found a very cheap iMac G4 700MHz because it wasn't working. When I checked, I saw that it was the PSU. The optocouplers were failing. I changed them and the power supply has come back to life. Now it turns on and makes a "chime" sound but the screen always does the...

    Modern display into Powerbook 190

    It seems that the Aliexpress seller is unable to activate shipping to Europe. I am insisting that he ask Aliexpress, but I am afraid that I will not be able to purchase the film. And now I would need two, because I have received a PB1400cs with the same problem.

    overclock ibook g4

    Hi, I recently purchased an iBook G4 1.33GHz, 133MHz bus, if I'm not mistaken, it's an "early-2004". I wanted to try overclocking but my motherboard doesn't have the PLLs where this link indicates: overclock iBook G4 Does anyone have the location and configuration of the PLLs for my version...

    Modern display into Powerbook 190

    Thanks for your reply. I just saw that all FSTN sellers don't ship to Europe!!! I've contacted them to see if it's possible. I'm unlucky. It has to be exactly FSTN, right? Because he has several options, he also has TN, STN...
