Just a reminder - TD is not a place for people to start petty, childish arguments. You know who you are - behave like a grown-ass adult.

Wasn't planning on doing dual monitor - Kinda want to pair it with the Dell Trinitron display i pulled out of the skip all those years ago, but finding CRT's in the 2020's is like searching for gold dust. I remember the nForce 2 RAM bank shenanigans - i literally just need a PSU and to...

Just before the primary gifting period of 2023, I ordered a TinkerDifferent Mug, a TinkerDifferent mouse mat (Classic PCB - woo!) and a TinkerDifferent hoodie for @boopbox123 Other than the slightly fuzzy print on the mouse mat, i'm overall impressed with the price and quality of all of the...

Tattletech should tell you if you have the cache or not.

Oh shit! Time to stock up on them, especially if you want to build amiga accelerators.

I think these are still available from applemacparts.co.uk

Be warned, MO drives aren't cheap although the sweet spot is 1.3GB - usually Fujitsu GIGAMO drives.

Thanks to @max1zzz I now have a period correct 2004 Sony MFP920 - I think i'm now nearly complete, just got to get a cheap ATX power supply and actually re-cap the motherboard now!

Hello all - as @Androda mentioned, I'd like to put a longer explanation across to you all. This topic is not something we'd think would be raised, or in this case, seemingly needed. TinkerDifferent was founded to be run by the tinkering/retro/hackerspace community that it served, to be...

This is more of a heads up - if you're building any Reloaded boards, please now be aware that TI have been curtailing their product lines, so things like the SN75150 (replaces the MC3488 in the SE Reloaded) & SN75175 RS-422/RS-485 serial interface IC's used in the SE/30 Reloaded and more, are...

Very cool indeed!

Myself and Phil Cranmer made some open source ones you can make yourself - no need for PALs either as the logic is discrete instead: https://tinkerdifferent.com/threads/4mb-macintosh-ii-iix-30-pin-simms.27/

What system software are you using, and are there many extensions loaded?

Can you get a photo of the errors that are being thrown up? Would help for diagnostics 😊

Long sleeve or short sleeve?

I presume this would be merely adapting the 16-bit bus to an 8-bit device?

Probably best to break these posts out into their own diagnostic thread rather than clutter this one.

One more addition to the project: A Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS! Period correct addition and what's even better? Yep, a fully working and intact front panel in black!
