If you do get a new OS weather it be Snow Leopard or better do a total clean of the HD by erasing it first and if it takes the new OS without a problem you should be good to go!!! Also I would max out the memory too. I think this computer is maxed at 4G??? Not sure if it will take more???

Tiger on a Clamshell is not going to be too good, unless it's a 466mhz with 576mb (maxed out) and a 7200rpm HD will make it the best it can be, this will make it usable but it will be right on the line. Reading email and maybe some websites will be the only thing good. It will work though

Check the rpm of the HD, if it's not a 7200rpm, putting in one of these will increase the speed of the computer a lot, if the one in there is a 5400rpm or slower. Better video card and max the ram. Or buy another newer computer with a faster processor speed like what was said here on this

Are you asking when the last computer came out with ONLY OS 9 without OS 10??? Or when they stopped putting OS 9 in them??? If it is the last with only OS 9 I would have to say maybe the end of 2000, because this is when I got it for my Clamshell when it first came out it was OS 10 and the

Re: What was the last Mac to natively run OS 9?

I made a mistake it was the end of 2001 I got that OS 10 disc... So I would have to say the G3 iBooks and iMacs were the last to just come with OS 9 (or somewhere in the middle of the G3's before the G4's) then I think they started to come dual boot 9 and 10 with Classic after that but I

Re: But Mini, I don't HAVE a Bluetooth Mouse!

Hey Yersinia, I'm wondering if you ran a software update right before this happened??? If so they always bring up those blue tooth updates and I always delete them and what ever I do not use or need... If something does slip through I open up the HD and go to applications folder and delete

Re: place to sell my old G4

If it is a laptop ebay is not a bad choice... But a desktop would be too much for shipping charges and craiglists is probably a better choice... -Original Message- From: InSaNeBoY s...@macomber.com Sent: May 7, 2010 3:15 PM To: G-Group g3-5-list@googlegroups.com Subject: place to

Hey Stewie, Thanks for doing that!!! That g-book group when ever I try to post there it won't let me, it tells me I have to register and I already am... So when I try to register it tells me that user name is already taken, I say yes I know it is me??? Anyway talking about quieter, I think it

I don't think Apple will care about this at all, they are old OS's... If it was Leopard or Snow Leopard that would be different... I'm only living on S.S. Disability, I do not own anything or have any large amount of money saved and my car is 21yrs old... I wasn't selling the disc's I copied nor

I have to say I got this old Clamshell running and that 7200rpm HD really woke this machine up!!! It runs faster and smoother then my Ti Powerbook which has more then2 X's the proc speed and almost 2X's the memory!!! I must say I'm going to get 2 more HD's one for my other Clamshell and one for

Question about Tiger DVD Install Disc???

I am wondering if these retail install disc's are licensed like Window's are??? Is there a limit to how many times you can use them??? I'm asking this question because a while back I had a Jaguar disc go bad and I wasn't sure how many times I used it, so when I got a new one I made about 6

Re: OFF-LIST: I can't format this new hard drive???

Hey Mark, All the HD's were used ones out of the Clamshells I bought to fix (I just cleaned them and did reinstall) I only bought one new one but I just found out it was a reconditioned HD and it has an Apple logo down in the left corner (this one didn't have the logo)... I did forget about the

Re: Open MDD DVD tray

Just for curiosity try holding down the F12 key and the return/enter key at the same time and see if it opens that way, that's what I have to do on one of my Clamshells to open the CD drawer it's the only one without a DVD drive... I don't know why this is??? It won't open with just the
