    ROM-inator Resurrections

    A friend of mine told me about this video. I am COMPLETELY STOKED for this. One thing I didn't like about previous ROMs because the memory space was too short to accommodate the cooler longer startup sounds. Recently purchased several 8Mb Rims and a programmer, so I will be looking forward to...

    Mystic PPC WITH Apple IIe card

    I believe 36 is max, 32 from the SIMM and 4 from the logic board.

    Mystic PPC WITH Apple IIe card

    Also, apparently because of the 601 rom limitations, it doesn’t see all of your installed RAM, which is crummy. The 040 recognizes the full 128 Mb, but it takes a while to count it when cold booting.

    Mystic PPC WITH Apple IIe card

    Yes, that card allows you to boot into 601 mode OR 040 mode. I’m guessing the PPC card will NOT run the IIe card if it requires 32 bit addressing turned on. I actually haven’t installed the Power Macintosh Card control panel yet, so I haven’t actually booted into PPC.

    Mystic PPC WITH Apple IIe card

    Hello all! I was reading on This Old Mac that the Apple Power Macintosh Upgrade Card for the 575 precludes one from using the LC PDS slot. BUT…. I thought, what if you used a PDS extension to “raise it up” overtop of the Power Mac card? Would the IIe card be recognized? Would it work? The...

    PowerMac 8100 Booting issues

    Just following up on this TWO YEARS LATER. I had my friend @ComputerCompulsive take a look at this over the past few weeks, and he figured out that the L2 Cache was bad, and it wouldn't post if it was installed. He removed it, and then got it to boot. I was over there this morning and we did...

    BlueSCSI v2 - DaynaPORT WiFi!

    Hi James, I also had the BlueSCSI v2 with Wifi working on my Portable (I have video and photos), but since my last video testing the sound issues, I’m struggling to boot my machine. I think I’m going to have to get that Androda battery replacer as you suggested.

    Macintosh Portable: "pop" noise every 10s from Speaker & Headphones

    Hi James. I did some testing today, and was able to verify some of your findings. I’ve posted a YouTube video here: Please have a look at it, although it’s not nearly as technical as everything listed here. It seems to me that the posting about the audio circuitry going to sleep does have...

    580 Logic Board in Color Classic

    Hello everyone, Someone in my area is selling an LC630, but it has been modded with a 580 Logic board. There's also a Color Classic for sale, and I was thinking of picking it up as well. I've read that the 575 board fits in the CC for the Mystic (I have one), but the 580 Logic Board is a...

    Macintosh Portable: "pop" noise every 10s from Speaker & Headphones

    Another thought, a friend of mine has built a small circuit board that reduces the "hum" from older pinball games. As a musician, I often deal with speakers and "ground loops" where a 60hz hum is anywhere from barely noticeable to extremely obnoxious. Sometimes, by changing the location of the...
