@Kai Robinson Nobody else so far who has been using WarpSE has had the same result as me, so that IWM chip you shipped me could very well be unique in the world! Later today, I will remove that “IWM” chip from my SE Reloaded motherboard and install it in the stock SE board to see what happens.

I cannot answer that question until I receive the SWIM replacement from Kay Koba. Right now, I don’t have a SWIM chip to test.

@Zane Kaminski Very impressive little oscillator based on my brief look at the Datasheet. This article presents a nice overview of the company, which seems to have been a spin-off from Bosch: This article talks about the trade-offs between MEMS and Crystal Oscillators. And this article takes...

@Opualuan Thank you for your suggestion. Hidden Finder Features does indeed enable CMD-DEL, but only for System 7.5.2 through 7.6.1. The aim set forth in this thread is to find the best way to gain that CMD-DEL functionality in System 7.1.

I've known about this Nested Volume Manager article (by Mike Schuster of Adobe, April 1986) since 2007. I've always thought it was a neat concept, which I will summarize thusly: Format a HDD like the Apple HD20 (serial interface) and then use the special Desk Accessory (DA) and driver...

Darn! I will be in Riverside, CA to attend my daughter's university graduation in the Spring. Have family in Santa Ana too. Just a few months too early!

As shown in my video here, it was @Kai Robinson who shipped me the original bad motherboard which had the IWM chip socketed on it. I moved that to the SE Reloaded board.

Holy cow, Zane! That test produced an unexpectedly great result for me, using my Model B FloppyEMU: I booted from my BlueSCSI with WarpSE enabled (SE Reloaded motherboard). My FloppyEMU was connected externally. I have a 1.44MB virtual floppy on my FEMU which has a bootable System 6 System...

I wish to humbly thank you for all your hard work on both of those topics! By the way, this is the 1.44MB drive I've been using (pulled from one of my SE/30 machines) in conjunction with my SE Reloaded motherboard and IWM chip: This evening, I booted into System 7.1 and launched MacTest SE...

@JTRetro You said you cannot read 1.44MB disks, but it's important to keep in mind that I cannot read them either in the Stock 8MHz state (WarpSE disabled). I must enable WarpSE (firmware 0.7d-fastscc), and then 1.44MB floppy access worked (a really 1.44MB floppy drive mounted internally and...

Here's how I de-rusted the Metal Bar on my water damaged SE motherboard (kindly sent to me by @Kai Robinson ). Note my use of Steel Wool part way through the de-rusting process. If you continue watching that part of my video and see the part after my de-rusting was finished, you will see I...

Check this out... What you're looking at is my Mac SE with WarpSE enabled, booted from my BlueSCSI v1 (7.3.5 driver) into System 1.1 & Finder 1.1g. That's pretty exciting. But here's the kicker. It's a 20MB "MFS" drive image. :cool: No HFS here! It's incredible that WarpSE can be enabled...

Thank you, Eric. So as not to further mucky up this thread, I will send those two pieces of info to you by PM.

In the context of this WarpSE thread, I was merely saying that 7.3.5 is the best BluseSCSIv1 driver for the Mac SE, especially when when booting very old operating systems like System 6 and below. It’s critically important to bear in mind that I’ve said that WarpSE can be fully enabled in your...

No. On my BlueSCSI v1, I am using the Eric Helgeson recommended Apple HD SC Setup 7.3.5 driver. I spotted that being talked about on FaceBook today. My opinion is that it doesn't really compete because an 030 is a very different beast than a 68000. It probably requires some kind of extension...

I retested with the SCSI Director Pro 4.0 disk test using firmware 0.7d-fastscc flashed to WarpSE and using the newest v1.1-20231116 firmware flashed to my BlueSCSI v1. However, this time I disabled WarpSE via INTERRUPT switch and then booted into System 7.1 and tested. No problems... I...

@Zane Kaminski So as to update my SE Reloaded BOM, I was searching today for your recommended 74FCT & 74AHCT parts. I cannot find 74AHCT in a DIP package, so that poses a problem for use on an SE motherboard. I was, however, able to find part number IDT74FCT257TP on DigiKey (not on Mouser)...

@ppuskari Can you run the SCSI Director Pro 4.0 disk test with firmware 0.7d-fastscc flashed to WarpSE? The reason I ask is because I am getting the error shown below after all the Seek tests finish, just as the Graph tests are beginning. And boosting the Preferred size for the app in the Get...

@eric I made time to test. Boots just fine after updating firmware The only one issue though, and is why I flashed the newest firmware in the first place, is that ISO images don't work. I thought they were supported on BlueSCSI v1. I have a known good ISO tested in Basilisk II on my SD...
