After long tests, replacement of RAM sticks, reinstallation of the OS, and other attempts to do something, I start to think that this processor is faulty. The system begins to behave strangely immediately after installing this processor. Previously, working memory sticks suddenly do not work...

There was a similar theme on macos9lives, and it seems to have ended badly. 😵

Maybe it's Focus / API Engineering: https://vintageapple.org/macdrivers/network.shtml I installed the driver, the card seems to have been determined, but maybe this driver is not suitable for Mac OS 8.6 or 9.1, which is now available. I'll check it again on SSW 7.1.2, 7..5.5, Mac OS 7.6.1 I...

Hi, I got such a NuBus network card, installed in the Power Macintosh 8100/80. System Profiler cannot determine that it is a network card. Most likely, you need a driver. Who will be able to determine something by appearance and "Card ID: 1531" so that you can find the driver.

And so, time went by and I finally received a parcel with a different motherboard, as I understand a newer revision than it was. This board was stored under normal conditions because I don't see any obvious signs of corrosion. I installed this board, and everything seems to be working properly...

@eric, 3 SD-cards 2 pieces -- Transcend, SDXC, 128 GB 1 piece -- Transcend, SDHC, 32 GB All these cards work fine in another BlueSCSI (2022.12a). Within a few days, I performed many checks, replacement of SD cards, formatting, connections to different Macs, and the result was always the same...

@eric, Thanks for the advice. I used the "SD Card Formatter Utility", executed the "Owerwrite format", also almost emptied bluescsi.ini from the parameters, leaving only what is really needed. But it didn't help. It is noteworthy that the problem begins to reproduce only at ~3,5 minutes (202148...

Hi! Faced with a strange problem with BlueSCSIv2 with Pico W (2023.10a) on the Power Macintosh 8100/80. Occasionally, the machine completely freezes when performing file operations: copying, archiving, archiving, etc. Messages are recorded in the log: WARNING: Host used command 0x1A which is...

You're right, with bluescsi.ini, which only has the network SSID -- works. I found a problem in the config: I commented on the standard description of the device and everything started working. # Settings that can be specified either per-device or for all devices. # 0: Fixed, 1: Removable, 2...

Of course, here's the full version of config I didn't try to specify a blank password because I thought it wasn't required. I'll check your guess now.

Hey! Today I got BlueSCSIv2 with Pico W (2023.10a) and I immediately wanted to try it on the PM8100. Created a NE6.hda file, Installed SSW7.5.5, MacTCP, Dyana SCSI/Link Driver, I rebooted my Mac, set up MacTCP, but I'm apparently missing something. MacTCP Ping Doesn't work. Wi-Fi DA doesn't...

Hey!! The parcel from China arrived faster than planned. I got it yesterday and soldered the capacitors. I've never soldered such capacitors before, it took a lot of patience to figure out how to do it. The textolite in two places has darkened a little due to many unsuccessful attempts. However...

Checked the remaining capacitors. Only 13 pieces: 7 --show knowingly incorrect values; 2 -- completely not working, because the tester could not determine them; 2 -- the values are close to marking, but I consider them defective; 2 -- looks completely working.

@Kai Robinson, You're right! Today several capacitors fell out and tested them on the resistor tester, the results surprised me. According to the marking, it is 16V 47μF, And in fact, μF has changed in 30 years. I've always believed that the value can decrease, and here it increases.

@ClassicHasClass, Yes, it's interesting. 😅 Today I replaced the motherboard, and got the same OS frosts and sometimes Kernel Panic. When it freezes, the processor heatsink gets very hot. And yes, every time the envious could be ~almost~ guaranteed to reproduce -- if you open a browser and try...

Not so long ago, I received a 1.42 Ghz dual-processor daughtercard from FW800, which I immediately installed in the FW400. At the beginning, I didn't notice any problems, but later I began to notice oddities that had never happened before: The machine can freeze tightly at any time: installing...

@Genjoke, @trag, That's interesting. I didn't know about such an opportunity, it would be interesting to try.

@trag, I once used debug mode to boot Mac OS 9 to MDD. But for this you need to get the image output on the monitor dev / 13fff encode-int " AAPL,debug" property mac-boot or nanokernel debug log dev / 2000000 encode-int " AAPL,debug" property mac-boot

@trag, The board says "Power Macintosh 8100/80" /100 and /110 and AV options are other. The /80 has an HDI-45 connector, and I also paid attention to this so that I would not have problems with installation and because of the possible differences in the case.
