Was that 6100 a 7100 before you set that monitor on it? :p

And to you as well!

Ya I'm not sure either. Here are some photos of the drive (all caps and components are original AFAIK): I also found this thread where two other people claim to have OA-D34V-22 drives that work with -A ROMs, but only when adequately shielded...

Starting working on the 128k today. The logic board looks like it previously had a RAM upgrade installed (pin sockets installed at E3 above the CPU, something previously soldered to a few CPU pins, and sockets installed for the DRAM chips themselves). Also...no RAM :): So, I installed...

I'll have to give that a try...I have a bunch of that Remington dry lube. Only used small amounts of white lithium grease on floppy drives before. I also have Hornady One-Shot that I use to clean and lube my reloader. It dries to a slick, non-tacky finish too, so it might work well.

Looks like I will be :) I recently discovered that another forum member lives less than an hour away and needed to downsize their collection. After making a carefully prepared and well researched presentation to my wife, she gave me the green light to go pick these up: There's a 128k, 512k...

FWIW, I've seen versions of this card with the 020 instead of the 030. There's one on ebay right now: There are some noteable differences between that card and the card in the first post: U4 is populated resistor at JP1 instead of JP2 20Mhz 020 vs 33Mhz 020 (though maybe running the 20Mhz...

Upgraded my 6100 with a GUIDED MISSILE :ROFLMAO:. Grabbed this (hilariously marketed) slot blower fan for $2 at VCFMW to see if it fit under the 6100's HD bay. After removing the slot bracket, it's snug, but it fits perfectly: It's quiet and blowing a steady stream of cool air from...

Looking at the blurry image of the top of the 2-slot card from the manual, it looks like there *might* be an IC or two next to the slots. I think I see some legs on the edge of the image that aren't part of the LC board: Here's the full page from the manual...

So I actually got my hands on the 25yr old invoice from when my dad bought this thing: It confirms that he bought it without the accelerator (he likely already had it), which is probably why it didn't include the dual-slot PDS adaptor. People smarter than me...how hard would it be to create...

Got the MacEffects keyboard installed. For anyone wondering if it's compatible with the BMOW drive switcher, the answer is yes. If you have the drives swapped so the internal drive is drive 2, you just need to switch to slot 6 drive 2 in the keyboard software when reprogramming the keyboard...

Hope this doesn't derail the thread, but I love the signed and graded comics on-display! Here's some of mine...no desk picture because my desk is currently a disaster 😬

I just ordered the MacEffects keyboard...no more mushy hairpin switches!

Love those old cocktail cabinets! Here's mine that I built back in 2007ish...it's a MAME cabinet, so not really a "restoration". I bought a Midway cabinet from a local arcade and kept the original art for simplicity. Just built a custom control panel and made a matching overlay for it...

I had a great time at VCFMW! I was hoping to come back with less stuff than I brought...that did *not* happen :LOL: Finally got my hands on the A2 RGB monitor I've always wanted but would never risk shipping:

Not sure mine was "broken", but I took it apart to retrobrite anyways, so I recapped it and gave it a once-over while I had it apart since I'd prefer to never take it apart again. It sounds dumb, but first thing to check would be the composite jacks on both the A2 and the monitor. They're often...

I'm just curious if the attached image works for either of your Classics with a BlueSCSI connected internally. I had similar issues about a year ago with my Classic and it turned out to be the SCSI driver that was being used. I never tried connecting my BlueSCSI externally at the time though...

I'm going for my first time this year.

I recently got an Old Net WIFI modem and just got it working with one of the Executives using myterm. Most of the work was getting the downloaded myterm binary copied over serial to the Osborne (getting the serial port configured right, converting to hex, converting back to a binary on the...
