It does take DDR RAM, but just with any other machine
I've done a lot of googling, and I can't find anything related to this
problem with an eMac:
When you turn it on, it beeps 5 times, then flashes the power LED 5
times, pause, 5 times. The fan comes on, but the display never does. I
tried a different RAM module, in both RAM slots with the same

However, it's also possible that the self-test itself failed (iow,
false beepage; I've seen that on two diff eMacs). So it might be
worth while opening up the eMac, replacing the PRAM battery, cleaning
it out a bit, then retrying...

I have the original 700mhz eMac G4 with a DVD Superdrive (installed it myself)
and 1GB of RAM. I have added an airport card. I was wondering if anyone has
attempted to overclock one, and if anyone knows how paint will turn out on one,
as the one I bought was from a smoking home so the front
Hi,
I've never attempted OCing either of my eMacs. I have the '04 and '05
models. The 1.25 GHz has been slow with iPhoto and later heavy web
browsing. I would maybe try the OC on your model with some supervision
by a computer pro.
As for painting, flat black would look really nice on an eMac

Indeed! I've seen a SE FD/HD going for 250 euros, and a LCIII with
monitor going up to 100 euros. (of course they're listed in the
auction site for ages, no-one takes them :P)

I'd love to get my hands on one or two of those. Unfortunately, the
shipping costs are totally insane for a machine like that. Recently my
mother got a 700 MHz G4 eMac for about 125 euros, and it was the

the best I've found was a 1st gen mini with monitor for about 250 euros,
and a G3 graphite iMac for about 80 euros. Crazy prices, if we compare
them with the ones you have there in the US :p. But Macs are indeed rare
around here...
Those prices are in line with Spanish prices. Macs are a bit
Here in Wales I have 5 working eMacs, bought over the last three years.and
they are still fetching reasonable prices on ebay. Obviously the 1.42 GHz
is the desirable one - fairly recent, adequately fast, USB 2, big hard
drives, good optical drives - people are asking (and sometimes getting)

Ill ask here first.
We've got about 25 G4 eMacs, in relatively iffy condition, most have
atleast some damage to the speakers, and the keyboards and mice are
hopeless.
a complete 1.25 GHz eMac in perfect working condition with
a bigger hard drive, Combo drive and 1 GB RAM for $75. Comparable prices on
eBay range from $75 to $150, plus shipping (big $$$). Damaged, iffy machines
are worth whatever someone wants to pay for them (i.e., little to nothing). If

Mike,
I am not sure which eMacs you have. I have the 1.25Ghz model, with
1.5GB of RAM, and it has proven a rock solid workhorse. I saved myself
the trouble of taking it apart, though; I just use an external
Firewire drive, which is a much easier upgrade. It runs Leopard like a
champ.
Best,
Just got a 2005 eMac! (Nice machine) :-)
Currently have a USB 2.0 eMac with the 2005's Tiger install on it.
The only thing that I could not get to work right on the USB eMac w/
the 2005's Tiger install was the fast user switching, which is not
much of a problem as my wife uses it mainly, only I
