Hi, i have a mac with OSX 10.3.9 on it. I want to sell it and thus i want to remove everything personal from it. The thing is, i lost my origional install CD's, so formatting & re-installing is unfortionally not an option. I already found where office 2004 puts it's user files and removed them...

I have an old tray-loading mac G3 (the first one) that i use for college work. I use it every day for at least 4 hours, so it's really a work horse. It works like a charm and i love it, but when i got back from vacation today, I noticed something strange. I always un-plug all electronic...

I was just wondering... What software should i have to keep my Mac OSX 10.3.9 installation clean and fast? I have a ton of software for my PC like ccleaner, diskeeper, hitman pro etc.... Cost doesn't matter cause my company will pay for it :cool:

Just wanted to let you guys know that it is very well possible to replace the main fan in your tray loading mac. The origional fan was getting noisy and annoying so i decided to replace it. I choose the Arctic Cooling AF9225 Fan because of the liquid bearing system that makes them extremely...

Hi, I recently put a new hard drive in my Imac trayloader. I did the OSX install disk and formatted it and the install went fine. But after install it reboots and the screen shows the two faces logo and a question mark blinking. It does not "see" the installation, while i rebooted from the...

Ok, i put a new hard drive in my old trayloading G3. I put in the OS 10.3 cd and ran the setup. It was a 30GB drive that i've used for a bunch of months in a PC. I formatted it and made one partition of 7GB to put OSX on (i did some research first and it learned me that it can't be too big). Ok...

The main fan in my G3 is getting a little noisy (the big one that blows air out of the top), i guess it's just it's age. I'm thinking of replacing it with another one. Standard case fans are only around 10 bucks average and it will get rid of this annoyance cause i work at my good ol imac every...

Hi, I have an old G3 which i use for my college work only. The only software i run Microsoft Word and Firefox. I did put Mac OSX on it though cause it;s just kickass software. It's slow, but it works good enough for what i use it for. The origional hard drive (5 gb) recently began to make...

Ok, i currently have OSX 10.3.9 installed on my rather old G3. It has 233mhz and 286mb ram. It runs MS word ok, so i'm happy. However the dashboard thingy in 10.4 looks really awesome. Is this version heavier on my system? Also, what about compatibility, i heard there are some problems on that...

Yo i'm running Mac OSX 10.3.9 on a G3 233mhz with 286Mb Ram. For some reason, some apps won't run while others do it perfect. When i open an app, it appears in the dock for a sec and the dissappears right away. It's really frustrating. I found out that it's not the size of the app or something...

I got this mac that has OSX 10.3 installed on it. I recently wanted to install good ol' Starcraft again (an OS9 game), but found out that Classic wasn't installed. When i pop in the OSX install CD's i can't choose 'upgrade' in the installation menu because i ran a couple of updates and the...

Just a question. I got a G3 now with 233Mhz and 96MB Ram. Installed Mac OSX 10.3.9 on it. When i try to play a DivX movie, it runs at 1 frame per 5 seconds or something. Simply unwatchable. I installed the DivX codec from the official website, but no luck. It plays fine on my PC, but that's a...

I bought a new keyboard and mouse today. The mouse works perfectly but the keyboard doesn't. The guy at the store assured me it would work perfectly fine on OSX. It has a bunch of special function keys for office, the media player etc... Only the volume buttons work however. I looked on...

Ok, i recently got a mac with OS 10.3.9 on it. I'm a complete noob to this, so how do i look in the shared folders on my Windows XP computer?

Ok. I have a router with an ADSL modem built in. Currently 2 computers are connected with it with LAN cables, and one laptop is wireless connected to it with WiFi. The laptop and one computer run Windows XP home, and the other computer runs Windows 2000. Now, i recently got an old Mac for my...
