How to overclock emac Videos

I have a 1.24ghz and an 800mhz the 800 works great no issues ever but the other won't boot I've wiped the drive 3 or 4 times and it will start the welcome video and the freeze video but the audio will still keep going and finally it freezes completely after a few more minutes. does anybody have any idea what could be the issue with that if not I am going to strip it for parts for the 1 that does work.

This video is awesome and informative and whats even cooler is that he sounds like Billy Quizboy from venture Bros a bit :3 Helped me install a new ASUS DVD drive in place of the old cd drive. The model was an asus quiet track dvd/cd reader & writer. It is not an apple genuine dvd drive and IOS X can still burn dvds/cds in the disk utility for those curious -Foxi D'elegance

Hello there, I have a question about an eMac, yesterday, we got a free eMac, but when we use either a PC Power Cord or a New iMac power cord, when it's plugged in, the outlet end sparks and pops and we quickly unplug it. Do you know if this could be a serious problem or maybe we're using the wrong cord or maybe even we're too scared to leave it in?

@raymangold22 The original Bondi Blue G3 (Rev. A and B) had fans, and the G4 Luxo Lamp iMac had the same basic fan as the eMac, only without the modified cage design (located at the very top of the dome). The G4 Cube did NOT have a fan; it relied on convection cooling made possible by the design which promoted natural heat-driven airflow.

I love this computer. I bought mine second hand 1.0, cleaned it very well. For 5 years i never had any trouble. Fairly fast when browsing and downloading. I even upclock it to 1.3 something and really no problem. Changed HDD a number of times and still in best shape. I love this PC.

Excuse me. I can't find out: How to Dismantle and Repair Your eMac 2 of 2 My eMac can boot and work normally. (CPU 1.0GHz ; RAM 512 MB x 2 ; OS X) One year ago, the monitor doesn't display anything. I had exchanged a new battery and cleaned dust inside. CRT or capacity died ?

I personally prefer the softer focus of a crt reguqrdless of whether ppl say they're bad for your eyes. BTW Why does this machine require a fan when the iMac G4 Didn't need one or as big a one as this. Cheers

You reminded me I have a old Apple II/GS that I have modded for use 2x AA Batterypack because it was a Solderon Original 3v OrganicLithium, I have never Check the PSU for the Caps and check them.

I am curious if I should get a old emac northern lights model with 384 mb of ram w/o keyboard and mouse and it is free if I drive out and pick it up would it be worth a good 15 min drive

@WinbookXL3 Lucky. Ours are so slow that you need a calendar to time how long it takes for one to boot, log in, and then process any keys you've pressed. And they break all the time.

i have a question: could i take out all the parts & connect an external monitor to these parts? basically i want to make my emac smaller & have a mini monitor hooked up to it.....

When I think of all the stuff that goes into a CRT monitor I struggle to imagine it ever being CHEAPER to manufacture than an LCD! They were nice though and I miss them.

that ending is exactly how work is for me. I just bought a new board for a customer and he brought it back a month later and a cap burst. Why does this have to happen.

6 years is nothing.. I work at a school and we still have IBM ideacentre from 2003-2004 era. They still work beautifully with their original 3.2 P4s and 2 gigs of ram.

Thank you! This video is very helpful to me having the eMac to be my first Apple product, I love it! How do I find the power fuse ? It will no longer turn on.

at my school they still use the emac g4 the best version the 1.42ghz they maxed out everything wifi ram hdd they have an sdd in all the emac g4

Apple a few years ago for certain serial numbered model of Emacs had a apple repair program for the capacitors problems.

can u do link to the various case designs of the emac? u say its a big difference but i cant find any imaqges proving it

+Anton EightBall Nope, because X requires 10.9.5 and the latest eMac can only run up to 10.5.x. However, you can probably run older versions of Logic. The eMac was a beast back in its day. I used to run GarageBand all the time on it with ease.

+ToyFoxy1987 my school literally has at least 30 of these, interesting because you also go to a school with macbook airs

About to upgrade my powermac g4 to Mac OS X 10.4, curious to see if it will run youtube, (1.5gb ram, Dual 876MHz G4)

+ElectrofizzStudiosCo I stand corrected, thought they only went to v10 :D

Yeah, it's called ten four fox

Like there is a browser for PowerPC that supports html5..

Yes but not the newest version you need to search on google

+Commander Erik if you have 4 years to render a 2 minute video

Lol right

+Offical Doolfi 2006-ban fejeződött be a gyártása, nem akkor jött ki! 2002-ben jött ki, nézd meg : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EMac !

Ez a videó 2003-ban készült, mint a videóban is mondta, most, 2015-ben jó hogy jobbat lehet össze rakni 25ezerért. :D

+Computers 101 (Formally DC BOSS Tech)  exactly

That's bad grammar!!!

:D

+Erik Hegedűs nonsense, i think not! ;D

+Fedora The Explorer hülyeség! :D

Agreed!

I agree

+Shahriar Ahmed Well, if PC133, it's not a 2004 model--it's a 2002-2003 model. Those models only take up to 1GB of RAM. The later models took up to 2GB of PC2700 memory. 

+maccollectorZ (Commenting Account) Thanks for your reply... but can not able to find 1GB Ram stick with PC133 BUS.

+Shahriar Ahmed Yeah, beginning in 2004, eMacs were able to support up to 2GB of RAM; that would be 1GB per slot. PC2700 RAM is very common, so it shouldn't be too hard to find.

or in amazon

+Turcios3000 You're talking about the card itself? You could probably find one cheaply on eBay, or you could go with a USB dongle. Not sure about the machine's outdated USB ports, but it may be possible to get better speeds with a modern wireless dongle... except I'm not exactly sure. It's nicer to have the Airport card anyway, I suppose.

cause i am thinking of buying one on ebay

thats better because you dont have to use a modem for that

+Turcios3000 Haha--IDK about GTA, man. The original GTA series would work if you were to get some emulator... and as for San Andreas or something of the like? I'm sure you'd need a better GPU and CPU for that. I'm well aware of the power of this machine, but the only reason why I'm not blatantly either doubting it or saying yes is because I've only played San Andreas on one system before. As for Minecraft, PowerPC Macs cannot run the latest version; they can only run up to 1.5.5 or something. Even then, the eMac would not perform well. Yep--you can fit an eMac with an Airport Extreme card. All Apple desktop have been wireless-ready since about 2000.

Public school systems can be touchy with their computers, as many times they are owned by the district. However, if you know who is in charge of the computers there, it wouldn't hurt to ask. I wouldn't pay more than $30 for one of these--just as a heads-up. (oh, and the best one is the 1.42Ghz model). These things are pretty sturdy and fast. The CRTs on these are pretty crisp as well... I should have lowered the frame-rate on my camera, to compensate for the low refresh rate of a CRT!--sorry about that! In the end, if you cannot get one from school, you could try finding local Craigslist sellers. Try asking if your school is getting rid of it, first of all. You could very-well get it for free, in fact.

And it has, i think(don't quote me) it had 1.56GHz

Metal... and cheese... I KNEW they made it from cheese! No wonder they were so tasty to lick as a kid! Bishop, your videos are always good to satiate my nerd hunger. I don't have the money nor the time to do this crap with computers, I only upgrade my PC anymore. So thanks for doing what you do! At my school, we are finally getting rid of these. The 1.42's are the only ones we are still using.

Although these things run pretty sweetly with Kubuntu PowerPC. So there are modern operating systems that will run nicely on a PowerPC giving it an extended life span. Although I'm guessing that where you work they have no time for Ubuntu computers in the classroom (from the way you were talking about the computers no longer being useful to the school)

I used to service equiptment for a school district, and I remember us trying to buy more of these before they went away, but they were out of stock.... speaking of running equiptment into the ground, we still use a Pentium II at work for the checkout machine, and we are a freaking computer shop, lol.

i have been wanting an emac for a good long while now but most of the ones around where i live people want to much for them or they recycle them. this one computer recycle store where i live just kills them off cause they dont sell :( oh how i have wanted one lol

Ya hard to find a torrented disc image with any seeders. thanks tho and sweet vid. I've been using a 1.25GHz emac as my everyday computer for about 5 months now. Never had any problems and still very useable

Nice job on the upgrade! It's good to see people still using eMacs as they were and still are good machines. I'd love to get another one but sadly I would have no use for it except for it to gather dust.

Wow, if I did that to my 1ghz emac it would out perform my main computer! (1.42ghz Mac mini). I'm planning on doing this upgrade when I can afford the $40 someone is charging for a used motherboard.

I recently bought a PowerBook G4. It is replacing my eMac because of problems with caps. I could order some new ones, but that's another project for another day and I needed another PPC computer.

Do you know where i can find a copy of mac classic? (download legit or not) I want to run 9.2 on my emac which has 10.5 on it now. I can partition the hard drive to make it run 9.2 hopefully.

I always used to use torex screwdrivers on mine and never had issues with them rounding out. The torex drive I had fit perfectly even though it was the wrong tool for the job.

Look at a video on my channel about burning OS 9 to a CD. I have a link to a system folder you can download. Also you can download an OS 9 disk image from winworldpc(dot)com.

I remember back when the eMacs were being sold alongside the iMac G4s - the eMac was such a better value, the same guts, way lower price, if you didn't mind the size!

you could always torrent an image (plenty available), or buy a copy of Leopard online. I have a PPC optimized .dmg restore image of 10.5.8, and it's pretty darn fast.

I still have an iBook G4 12". It's an early model with the 1.07ghz G4. I maxed out the ram, and I swapped out the HDD for an 80gb one. Great little machine.

Scrap piles of hell, lol, I know what you mean. I have a stack of Power Mac 6100s and a couple 8500s with extra parts that need sorting out, among others.

I have both a iBook G3 and a iMac G3, with a blank hard drive, how can I transfer the OS from the iBook to the iMac via Ethernet, with no extra software?

whats sad is they went from the old processor/arch to the newer archs but whats nice is they started using the really fast intel core series processors

i bought and installed a SuperDrive into mine and i unplugged the power button but internally it still broke so i wired in a PC power switch

OMG How Wierd , My name is also Tom , i am a fan of alot of stuff on ur wall , i am looking out for emac's . G3's etc. And My Mum Created one of the freecycle groups (Melksham) and more u sound welsh and my favourite country in the world is WALES!

Not everyone is blessed with amazing looks. What matters is if their nice people and obviously this guy is. He doesn't deserve bad comments like this or to be made fun of, so take your jealous self somewhere else.

@MrJake0604 Well, My Mac Pro is my main Mac, PowerBook is my main portable, PowerMac G3 is my server and the iMac and eMac are little projects :) Any other Mac that you've seen in my videos have been sold...

I'm very excited about this video tomorrow! I have not got a clue what its about aside from the gaming bit you said in your gameboy colour video which gets me REALLY excited being an avid gamer myself.

You actually can use dual displays via the video port without mirroring, but you have download a firmware patch (a hack actually) that extends the desktop instead of mirroring.

Nowp. This is an eMac. It's like an iMac G3 but it was for education purposes. 17" screen and a G4 Processor. They're the main differences between the 2 :)

eMac 1.42ghz are quite good, they run youtube a web browser and word documents, considering you can pick one up for around £30, there great!

@Madt001 I'm glad your really excited man! So am I!!! Can't wait to start filming :) I'll do my very best to get it up as soon as I can...

I'm going to be ordering this same model off of ebay for $74.95 , it has a 80gb hard drive, 512mb's ram and a 142ghz G4 running Leopard

i have just got the macbook pro 13 inch 2011 that is a amazing machine got it with i7 can't get any more happy.

@dontwalkhand Thanks man! I don't keep all the Mac's I show in the videos... That sounds like a good price! :)

do you plan to upgrade the emac soon? i would like to see do that becasue i have never seen emac in action!!!

sweet man, i got an imac g4 1ghz 17 inch with isight aluminium keyboard and mouse off freecycle..

What do you do with all these macs? I got a spare powermac G5 and no idea what to do with it.

I think i know what it is, there was a small 1 minutes clip a few months back?

when do you plan to upgrade the emac it would be a great video if you did

I know what your big project is. You're planning to take over the world!

I have the same hair color as you, and it's natural as well. I hate it!
