    Macintosh SE mounts floppy 3 times

    Three times “yes”: - I tried with different IWM chip as well, and I cleaned the socket to, each pin-connector one by one; - yes, the external drives working good with other computers (other identical SE 1/20, SE/30 and Macintosh Pluses); - I tried different disks, all have the same situation...

    Macintosh SE mounts floppy 3 times

    Could any of you, who knows the SE board well, let me know what components should I check? Visually everything looks good but I don't know where should I go and what should I check. I attach a picture about the "floppy area".

    2022 PowerPC Challenge!

    Thank you! Yes, it is true, I know, about the Mozilla browsers are generic "slower" than others. HUGE thank you for all of You guys who invest time and energy to make vintage Mac OS versions usable in 2022 - I my honest opinion, this should have been done by Apple at the end of the PPC era...

    2022 PowerPC Challenge!

    It looks like Github doesn't work with Webkit 604.5.6_2 either. You can browse the projects but for example the "commit comment" and the "last modification date" is not visible - just the placeholder animated grayish gif displayed... :cry: --- #PPCChallenge Written on an iBook G4 1.42 with...

    2022 PowerPC Challenge!

    Okay, I'm in. I tested the WebKit with Sorbet Leopard and it is the best browser available for Mac OS 10.5.x The InterWebPPC (G4 version) is much slower, laggier then the Webkit 604.5.6_2. @JDW I don't know if Mac OS 10.5.9 installed on your Cube but maybe you should give it a try. And then try...

    3.5" Hard Drive 50-pin SCSI Reference Design

    Very cool. Thank you very much. It is absolutely useful for me: I'm working on a little project to develop an SCSI cable adapter to be able to connect the Centronics - DB25 cable "directly" to the harddrive. For me the power connector position is not always good, because for example the...

    Macintosh SE mounts floppy 3 times

    I am working on a rescue project of a Mac SE 1/20 (this is the European name of the FDHD). This machine had a hard life - I will write a post about it later (broken CRT neck, broken front bezel, water damage on the metal parts BUT luck: the PRAM battery was popped out early enough to not destroy...

    Compact Mac Flyback alternatives?

    More silly question: isn't it possible to rebuild these flyback transformers? Probably the specifications are available. We have so many excellent expert here, maybe not a completely new design, but to renew old ones would be possible to do, I believe.

    Mention the Administrator groups in a post

    Is it possible to mention "any" Administrator in a text of a post? Actualy we can mention only a direct user, not user group... Something like @Administrator and/or in plural: @Administrators. I mean, not to report some conflict or nonconformities, just simply mention any of the Administrator...
