Thanks for confirmation with your experience. I've since come to realize that those clock frequencies that are shown on pg. 46, are listed with the ROM SIMM inserted and with a fully functional Logic Board; but it's confusing because the 'Walk the Bus' test tells us to remove the ROM SIMM for...

Will definitely try this Macpack for the SE's, I had not seen this before. Thanks!

After fighting with my first simasimac SE/30 for over a year and then finally getting it to work, I miss having that challenge waiting around to be solved, might have to find another simasimac board, or puzzle to solve. :) For the Ultimate BlueSCSI image for an SE/30 with 8Gb of RAM and the...

Ultrasonic bath would be a great idea, I see the flux everywhere too. @Duke09, just to be 100% clear: if you were to only insert 4Mb of RAM total - instead of 8Mb, in to either bank 0, or bank 1, you still get the same results?

Can you provide some high-res pics of your logic board, top and bottom? Curious if there are any signs of corrosion. If you move the RAM from bank 0 to bank 1, is it the same issue still with failing to pass tests, or boot?

Took a while to get the SE's going, both now have 4Mb and have been completely recapped, floppies restored, and all of these have BlueSCSI V2 in the expansion slot. Wasn't expecting the toast to fly faster on the SE/30's than it does on the SE's, the difference between 16Mhz and 8Mhz is twice...

The PSU takes a bit longer than the other boards.

If the pad lifts off the PCB, it will still be connected to the trace that leads to the rest of the circuit, literally hanging by a thread. Which can still be repaired by splicing into that trace. I push the old caps lightly down and twist them back and forth with needle nose pliers, until the...

The only thing the Dead Mac Scrolls says about the SE and checkerboard, which apparently only affects the FDHD model: Maybe the ROM sockets need a cleaning?

It would've taken me forever to find and understand all the different file formats available, thanks for the excellent info, Mark_W!

Would never have figured that out, much thanks! The image I had built from savagetaylor.com and Ron's Computer Videos tutorial, had both versions, Disk Copy v4.2 and 6.3.2 - threw 4.2 in the trash and 6.3.2 instantly installed the After Dark 2.0 image: B&W flying toast ensued. Will have...

Got the games copied over and working, I think I have a handle on the .SIT files now. Really enjoying this! But for the Apps, I'm having a bit of difficulty with .BIN, .HQX, and image files. I was able to get After Dark 3.0 copied over in .SIT form to the SE/30's, and it's working, but Flying...

This is the step I was missing, and is exactly what I was trying to do to be able to move the entire Games folder over to Bailisk II, thanks so much for this! I dragged the the entire Games folder from Windows 'This PC' to Bailisk, then deleted the Games folder in Basilisk - even emptied the...

Thanks! I was trying to drop a folder containing many games and apps in .sit form, all at once. Sounds like I need to go one at a time. Basilisk II does recognize that I'm dragging a file in to the emu, but then tries to make a disk out of it. I'll try this all later tonight when I return...

I have no other Mac's, except (2) SE's that were given to me, and (2) SE/30's that I bought and repaired. Was a Commodore and Windows kid from long ago, so Mac is new to me. I was able to build the OS's with BlueSCSI - 7.5.5 for the SE/30's, and 7.0.1 for the SE's - thanks to this excellent...
