    Apple II SCSI hard drive questions

    I flashed that firmware, plugged in the CMS SCSI card, and stuck in the SD card I've been using to boot my IIgs with the GGLabs SCSI card...booted right into GS/OS: Interestingly, the drive didn't appear on the desktop until I clicked "About this Apple IIgs" from the Apple menu, and then the...

    Apple II SCSI hard drive questions

    @jokker should be able to provide a more specific answer, but as I understand it, the BlueSCSI firmware changes required for compatibility with the CMS card (and other A2 SCSI cards) exist and are working...they just haven't been merged into an official firmware release yet. I think it maybe...

    Let's fix up these //c's!

    Both machines have been re-capped, de-yuckified, de-yellowed, and are working perfectly: Now to turn my attention to this little guy... Before, the image was unstable. However, it appears that was due to corrosion on the //cs' composite jacks more than anything else. During the resto, I...

    PC Compatibility Card freezing during Win 95 install

    Have you tried the usual stuff, like reseating/replacing/removing the RAM SIMM on the card (if you have one installed)?

    Let's fix up these //c's!

    Ya, I saw that, but I missed out on the kickstarter. Maybe more will be produced for purchase?

    Let's fix up these //c's!

    yummy... All clean and the key switches feel a lot better after following @AndyDiags excellent guide. No ALPS switches for me unfortunately :( Now to clean up the other keyboard...

    VCF East in Wall Township, New Jersey, USA - April 14-16, 2023

    Uggh, I wanna go, but I'd have to drive the 5hrs home Saturday night because I have plans on Sunday...I'm on the fence.

    Let's fix up these //c's!

    I checked both PSUs, and they were outputting good voltages. So, I hooked everything up to see where these things stand. Both machines work and read disks as they are. Keyboards are...in need of attention. The small monochrome monitor shows a clear image, but it's very hard to get stable...

    Let's fix up these //c's!

    About to start getting into this //c stuff I've had sitting here for awhile. I have no idea what condition any of this stuff is in...should be fun :)

    My little guide on RGBTOHDMI installed on Classic, Plus, etc.

    Hey...look at that :) https://tinkerdifferent.com/threads/compact-mac-video-adapter.462/ Ya, didn't mean to hijack your thread. Can't wait to build my own RGB2HDMI.

    My little guide on RGBTOHDMI installed on Classic, Plus, etc.

    I found one of those in my SE, but it's inline with the analog board wiring harness instead of mounted on a PCB with passthrough connectors: Also found this thing in my Classic that serves a similar purpose: I've been wanting to build an RGB2HDMI for awhile now to try these out, but I...

    MacTilt

    I just contacted them through their main customer support email...got a ticket number automatically assigned, etc. If you have any more "direct" contact info, please let me know!

    MacTilt

    Well, I contacted Ergotron...we'll see where that goes. I did set my Classic on the stand, and the foot pattern is the same: So, the "conversion" kit is likely just a different mounting plate or riser that allows the Classic's bottom air vent to breath, along with maybe a different retention...

    Hey, it says "Lifetime Warranty" right here in the instruction manual ;). Wonder what they would say if I needed warranty service? I guess they'd probably point out that I never mailed in the warranty registration card that I have here 😆

    Showed my dad this thread and he was like "I have one of those "$99" Kensington slidaway keyboard stands...no box though, so probably only worth $98.99, lol. You want it?". So he's shipping that to me. Anyone know where I might find the MacTilt conversion for the Mac Classic? Or maybe...

    MacTilt

    Only kinda related to the MacTilt, but I found this with it in the basement too: It's a monitor stand for the IIgs and IIc with space for two 3.5" drives underneath when used with a IIgs. Apparently there were removable angled risers for it to allow putting a IIc under it too...not sure how...

    MacTilt

    So I took this thing out and played with it this morning. It's definitely minty-fresh-unused-new-in-box: Full forward and backward tilt: The verdict? I actually kind of like it, and would definitely want one if I was using a compact mac all day. It feels like you're putting a lot...

    MacTilt

    I'll try to find time to take it out and assemble it. Literally forgot I had it. I do know that it probably makes my SE too tall to fit in its current home, and I'm not going to put it in a more prominent place ontop of that sketchy-looking thing with cats running around 😆 I was wondering the...
