    68k Angry Robots! by Criminal Caterpillar Games

    I just wanted to shout out a great game from a cool developer. Love seeing new released and fun games for the 68K and PPC MAC's we all know and love. Here is what you get when you order the Physical copy: I would definitely recommend this game to anyone looking for a fun time even with the...

    Ram 30-pin SIMM socket where to buy?

    Colin is still having nightmares from his SE/30 reloaded project (Which came out beautiful BTW) but lucky us we get to enjoy the plethora of information he gathered along the way!

    Two AppleColor RGB Monitors with issues

    Rotation can normally be adjusted by loosening the clamp securing the deflection coil on the neck of the CRT with the monitor powered off. Once loose, power on the monitor, avoiding touching the metal wires on the deflection coil, rotating it via the outer plastic ring until the image is...

    iMac G3 speaker replacement success

    I know this was a bit ago but I just did this speaker replacement last night on my DV SE. I used some JBL replacements from Amazon and they also fit perfectly. The rear housing of the old speakers are meant to shield the CRT from the magnetism of the speakers. They are glued to the old speakers...

    Macintosh IIci - Chimed after recap and then stopped

    Then the only other thing that would stop a IIci from booting would be the soft power circuit by the power button. They are these three chips around the SMD caps: (UB13, UE13 and the other escapes me) You might need to remove them and clean up any cap juice underneath, clean up the pads and...

    Macintosh IIci - Chimed after recap and then stopped

    Y2krecall, So odd that it chimed when you last tired and nothing now. I know you mentioned voltages were good but have you tried with an external PSU? My PSU has not failed yet but I have heard nightmares on the recap process so it might be easier to just test with an ATX PSU like described...

    My Performa boots to gray screen

    I think it would be a good start to remove the battery no matter what and at the same time get us some photos. It is a ticking time bomb and will destroy the computer. As redundant as it may sound, step one on all of these old Macs is to replace the capacitors. Console5 is a great place to buy...

    My Performa boots to gray screen

    Hello, Some questions for you. But first, the Performa 200 is the same as the Classic II so you might also find more info searching for that model. Have you opened the case to see the condition of the main logic board? This era of Mac is well knows for leaking caps and even worse, the...

    Didn’t read directions and appear to have corrupted my 6115CD’s HD by hot plugging BlueSCSI drive

    SCSI Termination is not too hard to understand, but I agree, in the beginning it can be quite daunting. In essence the first and last SCSI device on the chain need to be terminated. With that said, adding a termination that is not needed will not damage anything in my experience. It will just...

    BlueSCSI v2 DB25 on 486 Always In-2000 SCSI ISA card

    @Stinkerton18 never too late to these types of threads. I have not had a chance to try the toolbox with my card, I promise the moment I have a bit of free time, i will give it a try. The funny thing about my card is that I never loaded and drivers, and if I am being honest, I wouldn't know...

    BlueSCSI v2 DB25 on 486 Always In-2000 SCSI ISA card

    You my friend are a genius. PicoGUS is working like a charm. I backed up my working image in case I messed anything up then used WinImage to create the folders and transfer the files needed to get it working. From there it was a piece of cake. Now I need to make some time to test out the...

    BlueSCSI v2 DB25 on 486 Always In-2000 SCSI ISA card

    My next challenge is to get my PicoGUS working and after reading the documentation, I was stumped at how they wanted me to "extract" the install files over to the 486 being that the sum of the zip file does not fit on a single floppy. This is definitely going to help! Will try the DOS APP and...

    BlueSCSI v2 DB25 on 486 Always In-2000 SCSI ISA card

    Got it working!!! So here is what I learned. I sat and read the manual for my SCSI controller and it states that you can't skip SCSI ID's, on this controller, you just set the first device to ID0 and the second to ID1, etc. So trying ID3 and ID4 was the reason it was seeing the HD .img files...
