I have checked Mactracker the summer 2001 Snowmac would accept up to
1GB RAM. One could try borrowing 1 stick of 1GB or 512 Ram and see if
that works. Someone may have changed some setting in the bus system
also.

I think that larger is better in the long run. That way you do'nt
have to buy another one in two years. However I have like 4 2GB Flash
dirves (Sandisk). I'll sell for 1 for $7.00 plus $4.00 shipping if
anyone is interested

Mike, what's this 'low profile' requirement about? What does that mean?
I've got a snowmac and was trying to load 2 of the 256MB modules in it but it
will only take one at a time. It doesn't matter which slot I put the module
in. With just one module, I get
I thought that the top limit on RAM had to be spread among the slots, that
if the mac would read/recognize a 1Gig in one slot, then it would read it in
the other slots too, allowing for 'low profile' requirement. The max would
be reached when all slots had the largest recognizable module in each

Suddenly I find myself with two eMacs discarded by other people glad
to get rid of them. One of them has a wrecked power button, and that's
where my questions originate. Do all the different eMac models use the
same power button?

Thanks! I was wondering what that connector was!

I removed a dead drive from an eMac and it's thinner than most- width
and length standard for 3.5 but depth thickness is not. Will a
normal-thickness 3.5 inch drive fit back into that space where the
hard drive sits, and even if a thicker/normal 3.5 inch ATA/IDE drive
technically fits-

By the way is anyone as angry as me that Diskwarrior doesn't let you
try before you buy? DiskWarrior was useless on the eMac disk and we
had to spend $108 to find out that it was NOT going to work! At least

If you get an external hard drive, consider getting one with both

What's wrong with just keeping it simple?
If a disk volume has errors, use Apple's Disk Utility to repair it.
If Disk Utility can't fix it, then repave it from your
