    Important question, Can I use a single pump if one LCS pump is broken!!!!!

    I don't know anything about that. The PCBs from DIYINHK are not mentioned in the air cooling links I posted. They are mentioned here: Past summer project - G5 Quad LCS rebuild LCS Issues Late 2005 Quad

    I have no info regarding G5 air cooler compatibility with G5 liquid cooled CPUs. I linked some air cooling threads at #9

    There's a couple Quad G5 air cooling threads on MacRumors. They use third party air coolers - 92 mm.

    SOLVED Apple //e with PAL composite video displaying issue

    The point of setting all the bytes in the text to all the same value is so that you can find that byte value on the bus. You're saying the VIDEO ROM is getting all the bits of the value correctly? That doesn't seem possible. Did you compare VID6 to the IOU with A9 to the VIDEO ROM? Do they match...

    Here's another test program. Change the value in line 5 to any bit pattern or character you think might be helpful. 5 TEST = 255-64 10 FOR Y = 0 TO 23 20 AB = INT(Y / 8) 30 CDE = Y - AB * 8 40 OFFSET = CDE * 128 + AB * 40 50 FOR X = 0 to 39 : POKE 1024+OFFSET+X,TEST : NEXT 60 NEXT 70 POKE...

    SOLVED Apple //e with PAL composite video displaying issue

    I think so. Do you mean the IOU at E5? I guess if you're done looking at all the traces to the Video ROM at F4 then sure, try the IOU chip. You said all the traces had variable signals. Did you check the voltage levels to make sure that low is low enough and high is high enough?

    This is a better test: 10 HTAB 1:VTAB 1: PRINT " `Aa": PRINT PEEK(1024) " " PEEK(1025) " " PEEK(1026) " " PEEK(1027) I tested it at https://www.scullinsteel.com/apple//e The result is 160 224 193 225 which are 0xA0 0xE0 0xC1 0xE1 The problem you're trying to track down is why character 0xA0...

    SOLVED Apple //e with PAL composite video displaying issue

    You can try AppleSoft Basic using the PEEK command. Something like this: 10 HTAB 1: VTAB 1:PRINT " ": PRINT PEEK(1024) 20 HTAB 1: VTAB 1:PRINT "A": PRINT PEEK(1024) https://www.calormen.com/jsbasic/reference.html

    SOLVED Apple //e with PAL composite video displaying issue

    I believe the problem occurs before the PAL circuit. What does "chip base" mean? I hopes it's just a problem with a trace. Correct. You should be looking at these: Figure 8.8: Apple IIe Video ROM Text Patterns To convert blank =0xA0 to `=0xE0, bit 6 (0x40) must be stuck high. You should...

    Hurdles Setting Up Dream G5; Experiences?

    What version of Open Firmware do you have? Apple disabled automatic USB booting between April and August 2004. I think you can use a command in Open Firmware to boot USB non-automatically. https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/guide-new-method-booting-from-usb-on-powerpc-macs.2403368...

    SOLVED Apple //e with PAL composite video displaying issue

    Does the VGA card actually read from RAM or does it mirror the RAM by capturing writes? Probably the latter since it would be competing with both the 6502 and the video circuitry otherwise.

    SOLVED Apple //e with PAL composite video displaying issue

    The Video ROM is where the Apple II keeps the character bitmap data - the Character ROM? Which screen shot is from the VGA card and which is from the composite output? You said the VGA was OK so the screenshot on the right must be from composite. The built-in video is not getting the correct...
