    Mid-2011 Mac Mini CPU Upgrade?

    it should be possible as long as you go for a same-generation chip, which might give you the same performance as a mid 2011 Server Mac Mini, like I have

    C7 capacitor blew in my LC. What does it affect?

    Tantalum capacitors are good for longevity, the Quadra 700 used them for all its capacitors, and lots of them are still going strong today. I may be biased because that's what my LC III was recapped with, but as I said, longevity and in some cases they may never need to be replaced again unless...

    MCL68+ A Motorola 68000 drop-in emulator

    I wonder if it's possible to optimize that enough to make the 68000 emulation into 68010 emulation or have it emulate an 020 or 030 (probably at 16MHz or lower)

    7100 72 pin RAM

    I'm pretty sure macs only accept EDO memory, they might not like FPM, and parity doesn't matter

    SE/30 AB making a clicking sound

    that's an indication that the power supply is being short-circuited, so I'd say check the board for shorts and try recapping it

    Mac SE 2 FD - patterns

    try reseating the ROM, or try putting deoxit on the RAM and ROM sockets and see if the behavior changes

    LC III Dyna Corp PSU not playing ball even after a recap

    This might only apply to the Macintosh Classic analog boards, but there might be a potentiometer to fix these voltages, but I'd also recommend checking the resistors and seeing if their resistance matches their markings

    MODE32/System compatability

    I'm pretty sure MODE32 can only be run on system 7.1 and never, as older versions don't have support for 32-bit addressing, afaik

    Testing Needed: Apple CD/DVD Driver 1.4.8 Universal For 7.1 - 9.2.2 (SCSI Drives)

    It might just be pickyness with my LC III, I did overclock it from 25MHz to 33MHz, though that might not be the case

    LCII freezing when my printer cable is plugged in

    if you have a multimeter with a continuity or diode check mode, use that to check to see if you have any shorts, comparing the pinouts to the pinout of the cable

    Testing Needed: Apple CD/DVD Driver 1.4.8 Universal For 7.1 - 9.2.2 (SCSI Drives)

    Ok, with the standard driver, it loaded flawlessly, so I have no idea what is causing the address error on the universal extension
