Picture Looks pretty much like a tube tv.. it is very clear .. no flickering (flickering you see is caused by the video recording) but nothing like the newer lcd/plasma/4k
You went through the usual to try getting it going?,, if the power supply is good, if i remember right, if the internal battery is dead, it will have problems to start... BUT if plugged in say overnight, it might power up.. once it does, if you regularly run it (just have it on) it will always restart after.
@@tigger5 yes I get a disc and a question mark, I really hope your on to something I’d love to revisit it, that amazing startup sound in my opinion which the best still works to
@@sxymike12 I will assume it is the original CD...To try- Repair first- Insert the disk, then start/restart the comp holding the "C" key (do not let go)...listen for the disk whirling..if it is, keep holding the C key until the comp starts..this could take time.. once started, click disk utilities and then repair disk, select the mac hard rive and start the repairs...once done restart...IF it still does not go, then again restart the comp as above, and in disc utilities, reformat the drive ...keep in mind, all info will be erased from it.
@@sxymike12 i think i know where the confusion is... you said "i get a disc and a question mark"..to be clear...you have a CD (disc) icon AND a HD icon or folder icon with a flashing question mark ?.... or just a HD icon or folder icon with a flashing question mark ???..As for an original CD, check if you have the cd that came with the comp, or if you have an OS 7 or 8 install disc
I can not remember what i installed... but i usually try to install the most up to date os that the computer can run.. I will say it is probably os 7.x(?)
I actually owned by dad's parents old Performa 6200CD. He used to use it when he was my age. Mine ran System 7.5.1. Sadly, about a year ago, the hard drive died. I now own a Grape iMac G3 Rev. C.
I have 100 max and a lot of them consist of what you have there’s some that I don’t have that monitor that monitor was the worst monitor they made they failed very badly other than that I have a lot of those max that you have for cheap
Thank you...not shown (keeping) 17in Macbook Pro (my main work horse), PPC 2.3 Ghz G5 Tower, and a G4 533 Mhz Tower... it is all going to be up for sale (not including the above mentioned) along with a lot of other stuff (drives, printers, etc etc)....
Well, I made 2 partitions and it should boot into the disk and allow you to choose what partition you want to install it to. I’m going to try it again later.
