1.5, 1.6, and 2.0. Works fine in Basilisk (I'm using a 030 rom because it doesn't have a 68000 one) but when I move the disk image over the SE it gives me the message every time.

Thanks for chiming in folks. I put a fresh and lean version of 7.1 on the SE leaving plenty of ram left. As memory serves me, lots of computers had 4mb and could use quicktime to some degree, at least at fuzzy postage stamp levels so I don't think it's ram. I can't find anything excluding the SE...

I recently put my @MacEffects Performer PDS 68030 Accelerator and am really digging the speed bump (if you haven't gotten one for your SE, go get one!). One challenge I came across was Quicktime support. Since the system now sports an 030 processor I was hopping to run some software that...

Here's the newly retrobrited Apple IIc case and monitor with the MacEffects back-lit keyboard and upgraded ROM. (1983 rev with the terrible keyboard before). Really happy how this turned out.

Updated the firmware on the Floppy EMU and tried some different files. Working as expected now. Thanks!

Hi folks, probably a noob question but here goes: My modified IIc with ROM4 is pulling an image from a FloppyEMU using smartport slot. However every time it tries to load it say GS/OS requires Apple II GS hardware. I'm pretty sure the images aren't IIGS specific. Anything obvious I might be...

The are now available for order on the MacEffects site. Just ordered mine!

Any update on this? Did backers get theirs yet?

They gave these away for free at Macworld 2000 in NY at the opening keynote. I worked on the keynote crew for Steve's presentation where they unveiled the G4 cube. It was a long couple of days.

My original setup in 1995 at college. I scraped together as much cash as I could, sold my Centris 650 (that machine was the true OG for me, where it all began) and got my girlfriend to charge the rest for me. It was a discounted 6100/66 from the school's bookstore. It was a real workhorse and I...

Thanks for the suggestions, I have been trying to boot it with no components connected and getting the same result. Gonna try and replace some of the normal culprits first and see what happens from there.

I have vowed to put this project away for a bit so it doesn't drive me insane but it keeps pulling me back in. Do you have links or part numbers where you source these from @Branchus ?

A really good idea @3lectr1c Couple of steps I would identify (just from research) off the bat after a recap and solder joint inspection is to look at the following components: DP3 diode DP4 diode QP1 optocoupler RF2 2 KOHM 1W A place to source the parts would be a good idea too.

So an update, kind of at an impasse with this project. I was able to get it to boot up properly one more time and when I metered it as advised in the @Branchus video on the correct pins of the disk port, I did get the proper voltages. However it went right back into "purr mode" and the voltages...

Thanks for the advice Steve. It is indeed not getting enough voltage when I metered those pins, looked about half of what it should be on both 12v and 5v pins. I find it odd that it did indeed work fine when I installed it today and then after I closed up the case (of course) it decided to fail...
