imac g3

Hello, I have an iMac g3 slot loading 400mhz running OSX Tiger 10.4.11, and I am having trouble visiting any webpages on any browser I put on this thing, I know that modern internet does not work with old computers but is there any web browser or workaround that could be done? The g3 is...

after pulling my G3 to bits and harvesting the analogue board from it I can't visually see anything that has failed. according to someone on YouTube they state if the Flyback is dead it could put a short on the horizontal transistor/circuitry and pull down the power rail, however when I...

Here are some images of an iMac G3 for sale in my local area, the seller is willing to do $60 (USD). The mac works, but it has some nasty looking scratches on the display. No dead pixels however. It's running 9.1, which is exactly the OS I want for it. It's a 500mhz with 128mb of ram (seller...

My friend just got 2 original iMac G3 Bondi Blues, and one works fine and the other doesn't turn on at all. He pulled them both apart to compare the boards and saw the broken one was missing a couple components. Does anyone here know what they are? Ive included both pcitures of the logic boards.

someone on reddit put this image I'm still asking how... how this Is possible? I tried everything on my IMac g3 with no result. the only thing that the creator of this post on reddit say is: can someone replicate this? I will try later for this, but if possible, can someone help me with this...

It's been a while since I've posted but I've lately really gotten into vintage Apple products again and might go on a used PowerPC splurge once again. I really liked my old 400mhz purple iMac G3 with 256mb of ram running Tiger and OS9, but I had to sell it for space reasons a few years back. I...

I love playing Stepmania a lot on my iMac G3 600, but I want something that is more ITG2 themed, but the problem is, the themes I tried were glitchy and barely working because of the mac compatibility with themes. So, Is there someone who can make a stepmania based ITG2 G3 port that works like...

Hey all, I came on here because I saw a video of a guy playing YouTube in a browser (latest version of K Meleon) on Windows 2000 using a Pentium II clocked at 350mhz and 128mb of ram. The thing is, it was just a YouTube front-end site and it was designed in a way to look like YouTube from 2005...

So, my iMac G3 (slot loading summer 2001) is in a not so fun situation, where the SSD is blank, the CD reader is broken, and I don't have any other (working) apple computers that uses firewire. The previous hard drive that was in the iMac G3 is dead. Does anyone know where I could maybe get a...

I have a iMac G3 from summer 2000, dv ruby 450mhz. One day I was testing old cds for games on it and it freaked out. I turned it off and then turned it back on and the screen was slightly pinched inwards. I can’t get photos until I’d say late June since I’m on vacation. How do I fix this?

So I got an iMac g3 dv ruby(can’t get photos since I’m out of town) 450mhz running Mac OS X 10.4.11. I ugraded it and did nothing much to it for a while, I booted it up one day since I got a external cd drive for it and wanted to test it out, I tried some games and most didn’t work, ( all old...

Hi, all. I decided to grab my old iMac G3. Well, it's been around a year since I last used it. I guess the IDE hard drive finally died because the iMac greeted me with the flashing folder icon. I decided to replace the 3.5" IDE drive with a 2.5" 240GB SATA SSD. I partitioned it into 2x 120GB...

Hello, I have a summer 2001 iMac G3 that I have no idea the background of. All I know is that it does not turn on. I have changed the PRAM battery and pushed the reset button on the logic board, and I have checked the trickle power which showed that the PSU isn't supplying enough power. I am...

I'm now working on iMac G3s to make a small collection of the colours I like best. I have a Blue Dalmatian 600MHz and I am looking at others. It will be slow since not so many people post them now. I only really like to run OS X on these, like I do on my other Macs, and I am interested in the...

Hi All, I am trying to locate a iMac G3 Blue Dalmatian for my collection. I’m in Australia but would be willing to ship down here. I know this could be quite difficult but was wondering what they go for these days and of course if someone wanted to sell me theirs. Kind Regards Reece

Hello, So I recently finally got around to buying myself an iMac G3. It was working quite well, however by about the second day every now and then there would be a pop noise, and power fluctuations which sometimes would cause the device to shut down. I put this down to an issue with the PAV...

The idea is simple: make the iMac G3 better but not ridiculous. Here's what I plan to do: Stock motherboard replaced with intel motherboard from later Mac Pro or *hackintosh-able Stock Hard drive replaced with SSD Stock optical drive replaced with SuperDrive You'll notice I didn't add CRT...
