    Does the SE Astec PSU have a voltage adjustment?

    Well, I lifted the board which was not as hard as I thought and I do NOT see any trim pot for adjusting the output voltage like the Sony. Bummer. May need a recap or ATX swap. Fun project, different weekend I think. I will try one from another SE now and see if I can find root cause of my issues.

    Does the SE Astec PSU have a voltage adjustment?

    I am troubleshooting BlueSCSI flakiness on an SE and so far it is starting to look like a power issue. I was going to adjust the voltage output but it has the Astec PSU. I took off the top case but there is no visible adjustment pot. Does anyone know if it has a down facing adjustment? Should I...

    Macintosh SE BlueSCSI mount/adapter for external access?

    @AndyDiags I like the security slot suggestion, but I could not think of a way to use it without cutting the case to get the security clips out of the way. Maybe there is a slick way to make a snap-in part that would let you mount one of these slot extensions and be reversable. If you designed...

    Macintosh SE BlueSCSI mount/adapter for external access?

    There are several factors of concern when it comes to design. Print orientation (and resulting surface texture aesthetics) is just one factor, but it is not incorrect to favor stability, avoid supports, and feature overhangs (that grow laterally at printable slopes). It is ultimately up to the...

    Macintosh SE BlueSCSI mount/adapter for external access?

    I just updated my thingiverse item <EDIT: NOW REMOVED—Sorry, I completely misinterpreted the PRUSA footer for object remix on PotatoFi’s item>. This was inspired by Potatofi, and tweaked to put the SD card within reach (or within slightly easier reach). Anyway, there is now <was> a 1.1 version...

    Macintosh SE BlueSCSI mount/adapter for external access?

    It is a good point. If only I had an ethernet card to worry about that! Actually, burning the expansion slot is far from ideal. A security slot mod would probably require cutting the plastic on the inside, so until I have something for the expansion area, I’d like to avoid destructive mods if...

    What may I ask are your “normal Leopard speedups”???!!!

    Macintosh SE BlueSCSI mount/adapter for external access?

    Also, I just ordered a BlueSCSI kit from Joe’s computer museum. I expect I will need to make another version of the mounting bracket above to fit, so if you can wait a few days until after I get my kit, I will no doubt have another version to share.

    Installing Mac OS X Leopard on the Apple TV (1st generation)

    And if I recall, when I installed an image on my internal drive, at the time, hacking the ATV1 did not have a convenient usb patchstick solution yet, so we were pulling off the rubber boot and removing the HDD to set it up on a mac running Tiger.

    This is cool. I like seeing these success stories, especially with a new board! Thanks for posting it.

    Installing Mac OS X Leopard on the Apple TV (1st generation)

    I remember that it ran horribly too, but it may have been unresolved misconfiguration, as I remember there was a process that would start pushing the CPU utilization way high and mine would eventually overheat/hang/crash. Having just booted mine again and finding it on 10.5.8 surprised me, as I...

    Installing Mac OS X Leopard on the Apple TV (1st generation)

    Inspired by your progress, I pulled down my ATV and plugged it in. It looks like I left the replacement HDD in there from years ago as it booted right into OSX. Mine is running 10.5.8, an iDeneb image. I must have installed this over Tiger before I put the project away. It still had the flashing...

    Installing Mac OS X Leopard on the Apple TV (1st generation)

    I had Tiger runing just fine on the internal drive. I had mine functioning as an IOS print server for a while before I setup a Pi to do the same thing. However, I have new interest in getting this running again. I think I still have a drive already setup—just need to swap it back into the case.

    Mac Classic ROM chip - replacement or more troubleshooting? SOLVED

    @max1zzz Much appreciated! It makes a lot more sense for this to move to a marketplace forum—especially since I put WTB in the title. Sorry about that. Still, a little troubleshooting confirmation was worth it here. I am in Portland, OR, but I have not started shopping for EPROMs. I was merely...

    Mac Classic ROM chip - replacement or more troubleshooting? SOLVED

    Good to know I have not been missing a source of these. I suspect anyone reading this who has a spare Classic ROM from a parts LB or battery-bombed unit probably wants to keep theirs which I totally understand. I have a buddy in town with a EEPROM burner. I need to reach out. Also, the recent...

    Installing Mac OS X Leopard on the Apple TV (1st generation)

    Ok, I tried uploading the .dmg file. I figured I could add the boot.efi as an additional like other collections I see on the garden site. Anyway, it it stalls at starting upload. . . with no sign of progress, so I am going to let it sit there a while and come back later to see if it finishes or...

    Installing Mac OS X Leopard on the Apple TV (1st generation)

    I wasn’t sure about policy and ownership etc. on the garden. I could have upped it there I guess. That zip file I made also has the boot.efi. I don’t really remember how it was used at the time, but I remember it was important.

    @scj312 this should probably go somewhere better, but for now you can get that old image here: https://mega.nz/file/1IxTBaKb#ULBYM7QASeFBklMPCqJDQk9p24oL4cKAPvE3Mog-WXo
