@endsjustify I will test this on my end as well. If it prevents boot up at any rate we can assume the LC comm slot heavily relies on specific timing. @endsjustify it turns out my two cards are actually too tall to clear the internal plastic that holds the scsi cables. So myself am limited to...

@JDW I was able to hop in and quickly do a test build of system 8.1 today during my daughters nap! I removed anything to do with networking just to be safe. On the resistor mod rev. A logic board, Stock analog board: 48.88 MHz - Very stable here from 24.317 hz -> 24.387 hz. Any further and...

I'm trying to accomplish these tests today if my 6 month old permits it 🤣 - 5am Canada, Igloo time

I 100% agree that OS-CON are the ticket! In all my examples I am using the stock LC 68040 (33mhz) and 3 different logic boards as well. I would like to point out the least successful results were with a 1993/1994 revision B which has a different oscillator (Saronix). The other two silkscreened...

This morning I tested my logic board (with LC33) in two configurations of analog boards. Firstly a unit with the "light VGA mod" described here: (https://powercc.org/640x480/). - Oddly the machine would not display further than 47mhz in this configuration, with the typical symptoms of no...

@JDW I tried my best the last 2 days to catch you! I removed the Kemet tantalum capacitors for lower ESR and stability BUT... I think I have a limitation regarding my LC33 that keeps me at 49mhz and no further! Frequency readout displayed here at 24.420mhz. While it is MOST stable at 48mhz the...

Sounds like a great event, even to sit in on and catch some news!

Very nice to have this! Makes it easy for users to follow along :D

I'm about to try this one as well :) It's a race!

I've set mine to 45mhz for the time being, that's already such a big jump! Caveat being the VRAM used

Is your baud matching the previous set speed? It's been ages since I had the IIC out for this stuff :S

I still think a @Kai Robinson swimsuit calendar is in order! here here! all in favor!?

Welcome! Glad to see a fellow rocket scientist! Kidding... I can't even build Ikea furniture. It's great that you held onto your old units, I've had to spend a fair amount getting things back from my early days (looking at you Amiga 500). Forward me a mailing address and I will send you a...

I can honestly say I never once thought an Apple TV could run OSX haha. This seems like a fun project if I ever come across one. Aside from the cost nowadays is this just a novelty or is there a usage for having OSX on Apple TV?

What in the name of convection oven is going on here? Are folks attempting to reflow joints? Should I put my 170 in an airfryer?! They're so HOT right now.

It's an xfx 6200 256mb (Nvidia). I put the card into a Windows machine with AGP and PCI slots as a secondary GPU then used Nvflash in DOS to flash custom ROM found here: http://themacelite.wikidot.com/wikidownloads2 (you'll find a clock lowered version for 6200). The pins 3 and 11 were cut to...

I'm in the same boat as @Alf Torp having used very cheap parts just to experiment with. Just today I successfully flashed a custom ROM onto a 256mb video card I had in storage. Needless to say the cube boots very fast. @JDW if you have a particular benchmark program in mind let me know and I...

This board is the newest revision with headers just for this and resistors. The pins put out about 3v (from what I recall). There are some things I have been experimenting with including small solenoids. Maybe now I will add a bell? Ding ding!

Typically I just search 30 pin Edo on eBay. In regards to se/30 and other 30 pin machines that take more there are options to build and assemble your own. (If you're inclined to journey down that rabbit hole)

@JDW I can't wait to see the video with all the progress you've been making on your Mystic! I feel like soon there shall be a trophy that passes to the user with the fastest Mystic :LOL: So maybe it is a race?! @Action Retro thank you! You must have seen the Jurassic Park desktop icon from a...
