Hey guys, I found the aforementioned computer on a local "classifieds" websites. It had the following description: The price was listed as $175. I've wanted to get a G4 for a while now and I was wondering if this was a good price to pick one up at. I'd prefer free, but around here Mac's are a...

Disregard, I was able to locate working disk images =]!

Hey guys I was wondering if anyone knew where I could grab the disk images for GS/OS 5.4. My ROM01 (w/ 1.25Mb RAM total) for some reason won't load 6.0.1 =[ It boots up, gets about 90% through the red load bar, beeps, goes to 100% and then freezes permanently D= I've scoured the net to try...

I just attempted to run MacADT from my LC550, and I got the same results. I still couldn't send out the printer port, which was strange. I'm going to try grabbing an audio cable tomorrow, see if I can't get ADTPro running through my PCs... -Academician

Although I am doing quite a lot today, I'll see if I can't pry it back open later and snap a few shots.

That little tidbit of code you gave me worked fine. I did end up trying the mouse card in my GS and it worked fine, so I know it isn't a hardware problem. The mouse card is in Slot 4 of the //e, for clarification. I may try it in another slot just to see if it makes any difference. When I...

Tried to send a disk back to the Centris but I got the same error that I get when trying to receive. When trying to receive I noticed I get a Testing Disk Format message, and then the garbage begins. Edit: This happens with any disk image I try to send, not just the default. I wish I could try...

Thanks for the quick reply =] I consistently get that "garbage" on my screen after quite a few hard-resets... I haven't yet tried to send a disk back to the Centris, so I'll probably give that a shot before I hit the hay. The config indeed automatically selects the IIgs Modem option. This GS...

Hey David, I was wondering if you could help me. I'm using the MacADT program found in your ADTPro 2007 package, mostly because I can easily hook up my Centris to the modem port of my GS. I can successfully get the program over to the GS and it starts ok, but there is a slight problem. If I...

I typed those in in the Control+Reset console and didn't seem to get anywhere with them. If I'm typing it in the wrong spot, which is more than likely, please point me in the right direction. I had about the same luck with some various programs I found on that google group as well...wish I...

Hey guys, I was wondering if any of you knew a program that utilized the Mouse on the Apple //e. In a recent grab I got a M0100 mouse and I want to test whether or not it is compatible with my Apple. I tried a little googling but I didn't turn up anything reliable. I still have yet to burn...

I did find the HD20 Startup Disk and burned a copy. The drive failed the test within seconds and it doesn't seem to be format-able either :'( Thanks for the link though, it sure helped me put another nail in this things coffin so I don't have to worry about it, for a while anyway. -Academician

Still not entirely sure what I should do with this battery situation. These macs will boot without the battery, so I'll probably hold off until I have a little extra cash to grab them up. MacJunky, interesting and quite a cheaper idea. I was wondering how you configured that up. By that I mean...

I have a Macintosh HD20 that came with my Plus, and it doesn't seem like the drive itself has stood the test of time. When I boot up my Plus with the drive turned on it will attempt to boot from it, and then fail. I eventually gave up on it, used my Centris to burn some System 6.3 images and...

The GS/OS from Apple actually has to be burned on a Mac, then ran on the GS to create the actual GS/OS disks that you can boot from. At least that's what I can gather from the instructions I've read. I have heard that w/o 4Mb+ of RAM GS/OS 6.0.1 is unruly, but don't take my word for it. I'm...

Thanks for the advice on the 8600, I might just pick that up as well when I get the call to pick up the other hard drives and missing cables, etc. The owner stated that all the machines worked except one of the LCs, so I'd imagine it works just fine. Considering the price, it's probably a good...

Hey guys, I've been trying to locate a nice cheap source to buy up some batteries for a recent haul of 2x Mac Plus and 2x LC550, all of which have dead or half-dead batteries that no longer allow the systems to boot. I have contacted local stores but found that even though they carry the 3.6v...

Well all initial tests are that these things simply won't boot. The Mac HDD 20 seems to be working ok, the drive spins up, etc. (found out by removing the case cover and feeling the vibrations). I do know that all four of them have dead PRAM batteries (one LC 550 didn't even have one, now I...

Just got back from the town across the river (Mandan, ND for those interested) and got a nice deal. For a nice clean $20 I got: 2xLC 550, all-in-one systems. Both really yellowed but seem to be all there minus keyboards and mice (well, working ones). One was apparently used as a parts machine...

I did a small test based on your advice Dan, and I'm starting to wonder exactly what is going on here :?: I turned on the Centris, and let it go for about 10 minutes without the monitor on. I then turned on the monitor, and about 10 seconds later it flashed on to a boot screen, yes, the...
