    Octane video error

    To wrap back around on this thread... Seems the RAM on the card was failed, and no real way (that I could find) to isolate and/or replace. I ended up buying another video card which is working great.

    BlueSCSI on Macintosh Portable

    That seems totally logical to me, but I was hoping there was maybe a lucky exception :)

    BlueSCSI on Macintosh Portable

    I have not been able to pull out my backlit Portable to test; would this same issue happen with the MacEffects card?

    Calling all Duo owners! (Especially those with a 270c)

    I replied on the other forum as well, but I'd love to have a BOM for caps for the 2300c logic board.

    Help restoring a newly acquired Lisa

    The "click and line" seems to be normal on the Lisa I have and others I've been in contact with. Great progress on getting your machine functional!

    Distorted audio with new MacEffects Thunder PDS accelerator in an LC II

    Accelerators and sound don't always play well together. In the old times there was usually a control panel or init that would modify the sound code to get the timing correct. Don't know if such a thing is necessary for this particular accelerator.

    SE/30 floppy format error

    SE/30 floppy format error

    I have an SE/30 that I recapped that appears to be working correctly except for one thing. It will read floppies correctly, and will write floppies some of the time, but the rest of the time, and _always_ when I try to format a floppy, it will crash with a "bus error" in the Finder, or just lock...

    Interest Poll: Macintosh Portable RAM Cards

    If I didn't have the MacEffects card, I'd totally be in. If anyone is on the fence about this, you definitely want the extra RAM in your Portable!

    Octane video error

    I am bringing an Octane back to life... Hinv says it has an EMXI video board. Part number 030-1240-003.

    live auction "the apples" at Julien's live

    I skimmed the list. Prices seem fair from what I've seen lately, maybe even a bit low.

    Applied Engineering TransWarp TW1340 - Information Wanted

    I have one of these guys and a Control Panel I can dig up for you that gives you some tools. There's also a product called "Virtual" that will let the SE see the memory on the AE card, so you can have an SE with a 68030 and 16MB of RAM.
