power mac g3

Hello, some time ago I posted about my Power Mac G3 (B&W), which appeared to have a broken motherboard. I unfortunately wasn't able to repair it. That leaves me with a non-functional G3 and not a lot of options. I could buy a replacement board or another G3, but those are getting more rare and...

Hi, I just recently got a beige G3 desktop, but the power supply seems to be dying. I heard that these support ATX PSUs but I'm still not entirely sure. I read on one site that you need to change some wires, but on another it says it'll work fine without any mods. Checking the pinouts, pin 18...

I bought an in-box ATI Radeon 9200 Mac Edition graphics card on eBay to use with my Power Macintosh G3 (Minitower 266 MHz) and got it in the mail today, so I decided to install it.

I've recently acquired a B&W Rev.B Power Mac G3. I used to have one back in the day, and wanted to relive some memories. I know these machines can sometimes behave in wired ways, but after going through many troubleshooting procedures I'm honestly out of ideas. I bought it, but due to covid...

Hello, I've got a floppy drive taken out of Beige G3 and I'd like to connect it somehow to my Power Mac G3 B&W (best option would be installing it into the zip drive bay). I did some research, but I found no informations that could help me connecting this floppy drive to B&W G3. So my question...

Hi, I recently got a B&W tower PowerMac G3 (don't know exactly which model) without DVD reader and HDD. I powered it and saw a grey screen with a folder and a question mark followed by the finder logo. Probably couldn't find OS X (duh). At least it booted. I powered it off, got a OS X Tiger...
