Hi all, Wanted to share that I've archived (on archive.org, I've tried to upload to Macintosh Garden but can't, the uploader just gets stuck) a OS X install disc intended for the Axiotron Modbook. I had one in my care a few years ago and it had one disc with it, there might be another. I am...

Thanks for posting this! I actually have an AIO that's currently pushing up daisies that I need to get off my arse and fix, and the flyback sounds like exactly the thing that's gone off in it.

Upgrading QuickTime and OpenGL might have been the missing link I forgot. I need to roll back and try it again. I was also using the ATI Installer 4.0.1 I believe. Didn’t even know there was a 4.2! Well, I know what I’m working on tonight.

So, in an effort to have a bit of fun I pilfered the Rage 128 out of my G3 B/W to see how ridiculous I could make my 4400. The only problem is...despite some things being "better" (I can do millions of colors at 1024x768 now!) unfortunately...everything else is lackluster. Finder redraws windows...

UPDATED after I took the plunge and ended up buying some RAM on eBay that looked like it should work. Thankfully it did.

This was previously a question thread, however upon experimenting myself I wanted to update with my findings. First, the big one: Does refresh rate matter? Yes, yes it does, but not from a "will it even work" perspective. Refresh rates below 2K are fully addressable by the 4400, but 4K? The...

Weirdly enough, the solution was to stick my Elgato HD60S inline with the DVI to HDMI adapter. Because for some reason the G4 was having a bit of a time reading the EDID of the display, I guess? Having the HD60S present itself as a 1080p capable monitor made it work fine. Not sure why.

This really frosts my cookies too. I actually tried it once and didn't get very far, because I use a password manager for most everything. So of course, when you sign in with an MS account, it wants you to log in with your MS account password. Which...yeah. Good luck. Before that, I think I...

It absolutely wrecked my local music library, which arguably is the most sacred set of data I own considering I've been building it since I started getting into computers (like 2002 or so). Marked a bunch of tracks as unplayable due to region restrictions. Replaced a bunch of original albums...

Ha, I wish. It actually isn’t. They removed the tab entirely, I guess intending you to use Screen Time for restrictions. It isn’t present in Monterey’s Music.app. :(

So it goes, this is inspired by some goings on with my M1 MacBook, but before I launch into that, let me explain what I'm asking: To put it simply, say an update was pushed to an app you use that moves something in a very subtle way. Or a new revision of some hardware you use was released that's...

Wondering if anyone has a fix for this, because I really wanted to keep it on 10.3.9 but I had to upgrade it to 10.4 to escape this issue. I was playing Alice under 10.3.9 with my GeForce 4 Ti 4600 (shouts to Justin Morgan for hooking me up with that, btw) and it worked stupidly great under...

(Excuse the doublepost, mods. Just gotta make sure this is seen, lol.) If that CD you get has the Windows updater definitely do archive it and let me know. I found the Mac version of the 2.0.1 updater and uploaded a copy over here, and it works a treat!

This took a little bit of googling, so I wanted to reupload it here so we have our own copy of it just in case, seeing as there was once a time it looks when the software was harder to find. What is it? This updater allows you to update/restore a third generation iPod (the one with the light...

Put me down as interested. My 3rd gen likes falling over more often than it wants to work so I'm down to experiment with it a bit, heh. Though once I get the new mini battery in, maybe that'll change. I also think /r/iPod might be interested if you're on reddit, I know there are people on there...

First off, the username: It was dreamed up when I was mashing random words together way back in 2008 because I guess someone didn't like my Xbox Live gamertag and I had to change it, and wanted something unique, and exxodium is what I came up with. (And to this day, that's STILL my gamertag.)...

Yep. It'll still charge, but if you plug it into a machine over FW it'll never ever come up despite throwing the Do Not Disconnect screen at you. Though speaking of OS 9 compatibility, my 3G's on 2.3 and it still comes up in 9.2.2, though of course iTunes doesn't know what to do with it...

As someone who owns a B/W G3, I can attest to this. The plastics on them did NOT age well at all, in my case. All the feet and handles broke on mine pretty quick after I pulled it from storage. I actually replaced them with feet/handles from a trashed Quicksilver chassis. Looks a little odd, but...

Figured this would be a good thing to kick this section off, no? Maybe you've watched DankPods, or maybe you've found an old iPod and find yourself wanting to mess around with them more, because even though Apple considers them "obsolete" they're still stupidly useful even today (and still...

Have another one to add now that I think of it: An original/2nd gen iPod. Not that I'd ever daily it like my other iPods, but I've always kinda wanted one, even as far back as the mid 2000s (though back then I wanted one to actually fix up and use since I couldn't afford a new iPod at the time...
