it might be the GPU, but you stated that trying to move files wasn't working either. i've seen odd stuff happen when batteries go dead. that machine, I would just yank the drives, hook them up with an adapter or put them in exteral cases &am…

sounds like he tried to put windows on it & it blew up. does he have an OS X DVD disc? on boot, hold the option key & select the Mac OS boot drive. for the DVD, put it in & select that drive when it shows on the screen. if it…

does the screen come back to where it was everytime?? this machine sounds like it's one with the bad cooling pumps. check the inside for leakage on the power supply, it lays in the bottom.

I would only install the bare minimum, uncheck everything in the options when you run the installer. then try & run the optional installs from the disc once the OS is up & running the disc might be shot, you would be better off getti…

if you dumped it on the floor & it shut off... either you blew the logic board out or busted the connection to the battery. unless it was writing all kinds of stuff to the hard drive, it can still be ok. if apple still offers that pr…

You are taking standard definition content & playing it back on a high definition screen. It's going to look crappy! Have you tried VLC?

Where can you get 10.4 on ebay? It's cheaper to buy 10.5, both of those machines will run 10.5 just fine. You are better off running 10.5. Disclaimer: you are only suppose to install that on 1 machine at a time. Now, for 10.4, if both ar…

you need to try & recover / move the files to another drive. try a flash card recovery tool if needed.

my system got goofed up when the hard drive got replaced by a apple specialist - got a new unibody out of it! make sure the cables got inserted properly. You have to pull the little brown tab up on the logic board - to remove & install the r…

crucial.com, newegg.com, macsales.com had good luck with all 3.

No idea what the charge would be, never paid for work. Either have applecare or I do it myself. Fans online are going for about $50. http://www.ifixit.com/Categories/MacBook-Pro-15-Inch/85 http://www.powerbookmedic.com/MacBoo...p-1-c-465.html

Target mode doesn't exist on the B&W G3. you'll need xPost Facto if you use an external DVD drive, I think. Unless you do a lot of tinkering around, have a 2nd mac & have access to a 10.5 dev beta, Leopard will not install or run that machin…

you will have to rebuild the library: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1451 & http://www.ilounge.com/index.php/art...itunes-library

the image won't work on the eMac, it's from an Intel Mac, no dice! The partition setup is GUID (need APM) & the OS will likely only boot on an Intel. does the MBP do anything? can you put that in target mode? You can use that to install tige…
