    Badly distorted CD audio on Quadra 650/800

    Download Astarte CD-Copy 2.0.x from Macintosh Garden, and use it to extract the audio from a CD as a test. Play back that audio in software, and it will be completely digital. This would verify that your CD is good, and being read properly, etc. Astarte CD Copy...

    Please help, don't mess around with J16 on a iisi

    I've never messed with J16, so I couldn't tell you what the outcome of shorting something out connecting to it. I think you're going to not get much help on this, as you're probably one of the first people to try something new in that way, and you got unpredictable results. An oscilloscope...

    Please help, don't mess around with J16 on a iisi

    So it looks like it briefly initializes video, then goes black screen. Is it the grey 1 bit pattern seen on a brief stripe or just a solid color? Seems like something is shorted or got shorted out from your experiment.

    Mystic Overclock - A Spicy O'clock Adventure

    If you can boot into System 7.1 and enter the chooser and set AppleTalk to “inactive” it will stay that way until you power off. Then you could boot into a higher Mac OS that is freezing on boot and see if it progresses further.

    Mystic Overclock - A Spicy O'clock Adventure

    The AppleTalk setting in the chooser is independent of the chooser and AppleTalk/OT extensions being loaded. It’s a setting saved in the PRAM and if you don’t have a battery installed, it resets to “active” even if you don’t have the AppleTalk, AppleShare, or chooser active. It gets reset with...

    Tucows Mac Software Collection

    I see that. But it’s all files individually. What if I want the entire archive for my own offline storage ? Found it! https://archive.org/download/info-mac-archive

    What do you like to eat when you don’t want to cook?

    McDonald's. Order delivery while I work from home. Quick. Cheap. And I seem to lose weight eating it a few times a week than not. Which is strange.

    Possibility of complete redesign and modern manufacture of LC-LC475 power supplies

    My guess is, if it fits inside the LC power supply housing, it shouldn't be much of a challenge to make it fit inside a IIci style PSU housing. Or is this unit underpowered for use in a IIci?
