    2009 iMac slot load CD into a Cube

    Yes. You may have to make some adapters to align the mount holes. I have mounted a SATA slot load thin drive from an aluminum iMac into my cube with a SATA to IDE adapter. if you have a 3D printer, see attachment for slimline/laptop style slot load drive.

    Card Retainer Baffle - PM 7600 / G3 - photo request

    I am still working on the files, but I have printed the 7600 (should be the same as 7300?). And if you need the internal kickstand (Chassis Stand), I have that too!

    Card Retainer Baffle - PM 7600 / G3 - photo request

    Thanks so much! I will update my G3 files to add that hook on the rear corner (where mine was missing).

    Card Retainer Baffle - PM 7600 / G3 - photo request

    My 3D printer is an Ender 3 Pro, so limited to 8x8x8 inches. I had to split this in two and add a seam. I was pondering gluing them together, but after printing I remembered that I have some threaded inserts, or I could use nuts. I may just soldering iron in some knurled inserts. I printed...

    iMac G4 doesn't chime once I took the HDD out.

    The iMac G4s use a regular Desktop DIMM internal on the logic board, and a SODIMM that is "User Accessible" by removing the bottom base plate cover.

    Managing your collections

    Just trying this out now... Some suggestions: 1. Optional interface colors. When in light mode in system preferences, I get black text on dark gray which is very hard to read. To get the version I see in the screen shots here, I have to go to Dark Mode in system preferences. Personally, I am...

    Important question, Can I use a single pump if one LCS pump is broken!!!!!

    I did find some other threads in google of other people using alternate pumps (other part numbers), but I have not seen anyone convert a dual pump to single pump. In theory it should work as long as the pump can keep going. @HrutkayMods has several G5 videos on Youtube about converting LCS to...

    Card Retainer Baffle - PM 7600 / G3 - photo request

    I recently acquired both a PM7600 and Beige G3 desktop with very brittle plastics. Both internal Card Retainer Baffles were damaged and missing pieces. I know they don't really do much, but I would like to have the part for completeness sake. I am generating a 3D model that I will share...

    MFM Floppy Drives?

    Sounds interesting... let us know how it goes and I may try to duplicate. My G3 DT currently has a 450MHz G4 in it, overclocked to 533MHz.

    Cpu0 and cpu1 help needed.

    Here is a detailed log of someone's LCS 1 (single pump) repair. I know there are at least 3 different versions of the LCS. Some single pump, some dual.

    Cpu0 and cpu1 help needed.

    The link I provided is a DMG, as well as this one... but if you have PowerISO, it can burn a mac DMG file on Windows. It does not need to be a CD, it could be a DVD, but it needs to be a format the that internal drive can read. Not all drives can read all media types.

    Cpu0 and cpu1 help needed.

    Look for Apple Service Diagnostics. There are different versions, some work on G5, some do not. May be more info in this thread. Otherwise try the Macintosh Repository here. I don't recall if the G5 can boot it from USB or not, I think I burned the CD.
