Thanks Elfen! Best saving my files quite often then! ;)

When I have a crash on my system 7, I can notice "Rescued Items" in the trash. I was just wondering if those files represent the state of the RAM before the crash and if they are still usable? I crashed my system while photoshop was open. There is a rescued file called "Photoshop Temp24162" but...

Thanks for the tips Elfen!

Thanks for your help IPalindromel! I have found a way to correctly print with Photoshop 5.5 (which was my main problem). With a print preview I would have changed the scale (%) of the output to fit into my A4 page. It is what I do on OS X but I guess this is not the good way to do it. At least...

A quick question : Is there a way to get a print preview of the page I am about to print on System 7? Just to check if everything fits well on the page. Thanks! :)

Thank you so much Gorgonops! It works perfectly! :)

I have setup an appletalk network between Mac OS X / Linux and System 7.6.1 When opening a shared folder from System 7, is there a way to tell the finder to always open the .txt files created on the Unix systems with something other than SimpleText? (For example BBEdit Lite) SimpleText doesn't...

Thank you for the tip uniserver! I will keep the 60MHz at the moment. I am not very comfortable with motherboard manipulation...

I reinstalled the system and the problem was solved! :)

Thank you for the advise trag! I did notice that the old heat sink grease was dry. I have some new grease so I will replace the old one. Something else : I managed to install system 7.6.1 on this machine. Every time I restart the computer, my changes from the Views control panel (icons size)...

Thank you all for your help! I just removed the motherboard and components, cleaned everything, put everything back and the 6100 has startup! :) I took a picture of the motherboard for you to see if there is anything wrong. I removed the processor Heatsink for the picture but I put it back...

I haven't used my 6100 for a very long time. Today, I tried to boot it up but it didn't want to. The green light goes on and I could hear the hard drive spinning but there was no startup chime and no picture on the screen.  The computer has some RAM and a brand new battery in it. The hard drive...

I would say that the amount of RAM really depends on the apps you use. Tiger was not very heavy and the OS by itself works well with 256MB. It starts to be slow when you open apps that require a lot of RAM. Personally, I have worked with a Powerbook G4 having 1GB of RAM for many years and never...

The GS105 should be fine and the problem is more related to the software side in my opinion. I have never tried to connect a mac running 7.1 but it should work. All the protocols exited at the time of 7.1. You should make sure that you have installed all the network packages of system 7. What...

I have connected my LCIII through a Netgear GS105 switch and it works perfectly. Th LCIII has a PDS 10BaseT ethernet card and runs system 7.5

Virtualbox is a software that emulates the hardware of a computer within your mac. You can install a linux or windows operating system on it. I chose to install linux because it is free and can be very minimalist and use a few amount of RAM. I need to access 10.9 from my older machine because I...

Hi louiscox, I have recently managed to setup an appleshare server between 10.9 and 7.6. It uses a linux machine as a bridge but I use virtualbox for that so I have only 2 computers in this network. I made a post here explaining everything I have done to make it...

Hi Syntho, If you want to tune your finder to make it easier to browse, you could use popup folder => <snip> It adds contextual menus to all the folder to be able to browse without opening many windows. You can define keyboard shortcuts for making copies and aliases when you move your...

Hi Syntho, I have noticed that the PCI slots on my 9500 don't behave the same way. My SATA card would work much better on the 3 lower slots than on the 3 higher slots. Have you tried to move your PCI card to another slot? It may help...

Hi, I am trying to install NetBSD on my 9500 (with a G4 upgrade). In fact, I managed to install the system but I am unable to boot it from open firmware. Right after installing NetBSD on my hard drive, I tried to boot from open firmware but the computer seemed to freeze at this point : 0...
