Today I connected BlueSCSI v2 (Pico2) to SEIV in Quadra 950.

@jimfrob Thank you very much!! That's what I got. BSv2 is connected to ATTO SiliconExpress IV with an Ultra SCSI cable.

But this Socket 7, and the manual doesn't anything extra, it's written simply P133 P166 MXX P200 MMX I didn't see any other reservations about it.

In general, bad news. I bought another 200 Mhz and 166 Mhz processor, and exactly the same behavior. Jumpers are definitely installed correctly. I started looking for the reasons, including conveying the symptoms of GPT -- I don't know how true it is, but GPT talks about VRM problems. The reason...

There shouldn't be any problems. Out of the box, Mac OS 8.1 should work normally with the network, no additional actions should be required. If there is no DHCP, then configure the address manually. What doesn't work out specifically?

And what's the problem? What OS, what are you doing and what doesn't work? And what is meant by "Internet"? Using public/local FTP, NTP, or, for example, an application from Macintosh Repository to access the application archive will not be a problem. Some people still use BBS. Internet pages...

I have a station with 10.5 Server with NetBoot to boot other Macs. And of course games, Max Payne runs here, the fished Radeon X1900 is great for this game in FullHD. After the last reconfiguration of the disks, it is now without an OS and is waiting for me to finish with other Macs. I'm also...

Everything became clear. I tore off the sticker on the marking and found out that "FV80503200" refers to embedded systems. Some sellers on eBay indicate it. Well, I didn't know that and found another Pentium MMX 200 Mhz (SL2RY) in a ceramic case that should definitely work here. I was...

Yesterday I finally received NEC 424210-60-G memory chips from China. I installed it, now there are 4 MB of video memory! :cool: I also wanted to change the processor to Pentium MMX 200 Mhz, but something went wrong. After replacing the processor and changing the position of the Mac jumpers...

@jimfrob Yes, exactly, you're right. If you put it at an angle, everything works out. I still have to order BlueSCSIv2 to finally connect it to ATTO ExpressSilicon IV.

As far as I understand, the Q650 and Q950 cases are not much different. I printed it out and tried it on my Q950 -- it doesn't fit. I'll try to make the frame not much thinner so that it can move deeper, beyond the petals. In this case, it should be better.

@JDW And the attack of cloned messages? 🤪 @eric I didn't know about such a utility, thank you, I'll try it. My passion for vintage machines began not so long ago, and at the very beginning of the journey in the garden or repository I read that you need to use only BIN so that metadata does...

@phunguss This cable has shielding, but it may be of really low quality. On the other hand, I returned to the description of this product in the store, it says that it is suitable for cash registers, modems, barcode scanners, etc. If you connect such a cable directly using adapters from both...

Hmm... I don't have any other Mac VGA cables. When connecting directly using the cable and adapter, there is an effect, but it is not so pronounced.

Hey! I have an old 19" Acer AL1917 monitor that I connect to different beige Macintosh. As far as I understand, this monitor should work at 1280x1024@75. However, I've always noticed that the VGA connection is strange, the text seems to be doubled or smeared. Recently, I received a KVM switch...
