Apple service data
[edit | edit source]Apple's own figures, from the Power Macintosh 6100/WS 6150 Service Source volume hosted on this wiki.[2]
| Item | Apple's figure |
|---|---|
| Processor | PowerPC 601 at 60 MHz (6100/60, 6150) or 66 MHz (6100/66, 6150/66), with built-in MMU and FPU and 32K of on-chip cache. The 60 MHz machines need system software 7.1.2 or later, the 66 MHz machines 7.5 or later |
| RAM | 8 MB soldered on the board; expandable to 72 MB in two SIMM sockets. SIMMs must go in as a pair of the same size and speed, 80 ns or faster, 72-pin, and must be noncomposite. The 16 MB configuration is the 8 MB soldered plus two 4 MB SIMMs |

| VRAM | None. Video on the 6100/60, 6100/66, 6150 and 6150/66 is DRAM-based off the logic board; only the Power Macintosh AV card carries VRAM, 2 MB of it |
| Level 2 cache | Optional 256K on the 6100/60 and 6150; standard 256K on the 6100/66 |
| Video port | One HDI-45 DRAM-based video port for direct connection to Apple AudioVision monitors. With the included HDI-45 to DB-15 adapter it drives 12-, 13-, 14-, 15-inch portrait, 16- and 17-inch monitors.

There is no VRAM in a non-AV 6100, so "replace the VRAM" is not a repair step on this machine. A video fault on a plain 6100 is the logic board, the HDI-45 adapter or the monitor.[2]
On DOS Compatible models, Apple's symptom chart for a black screen at boot or errors in DOS is to remove the DOS Compatibility card and check that the jumper is in the "SX" position, over the two right-most prongs, before replacing anything.[2]
