So "no sound" might be a stretch - there's no sound coming from the internal speaker. Headphones play just fine. I have tested the speaker itself, and even tried installing a different version of Mac OS hoping it was a software issue. What's weird is that there isn't even a startup chime, so I...

I've been trying to source a replacement panel for my 5300ce for around 6 months now. I've tried five (no joke) panels from China, and they all display horizontal lines like I have pictured. No discernable image ever appears. The panels themselves are a little questionable looking, but I find it...

Well, I’m stumped and have spent way too long and tossed way too many CD-Rs in attempt at this. All I want to do is get an OS9 disc bootable (shouldn’t be that hard, right)? I have a 12” PowerBook G4 I’m using as my burner device, running 10.4. For images, I’m using an OEM 9.2.1 install CD, with...

I've been scratching my head on this one. It's a later rev. IIsi logic board (made in Ireland) that I just finished recapping. After an ultrasonic clean, the board looks really quite nice physically. Now, it will power up, but I've noticed the chime is delayed by a second or two compared to...

Hi all, wondering if anyone knows the part number for the 800x600 panel used in the 5300ce? Someone at some point swapped mine for a 640x480 panel and of course it doesn’t work how it should. It’s odd because the rest of the machine is still a ce model. Any tips would be appreciated!

I recently acquired a 40MHz Presto 040 designed for the IIci cache slot. Problem is, with the "Presto" extension loaded in System 7.5, I get a bus error during startup. I have a IIvx, and that machine behaves similarly. I did get it to boot into 7.5 at one point, but the system crashed when...

Yesterday I picked up an extremely clean Mac Classic. It was apparently part of a computer lab, but doesn't look to have been used all that much. Pictures make it look a little yellow, but the case is not darkened hardly at all. Time to see what kind of surprises await inside... I...

I bought this computer a few months ago, and have been gradually working toward a full repair. Unfortunately, this computer was the victim of a Maxell battery explosion (didn't know it was a common issue when I bought it). Regardless, I've made a lot of progress from where things started. Here...
