I found this thread that confirms it's not supported: https://github.com/markadev/AppleII-VGA/discussions/22 Someone replied about a similar project but it doesn't seem to support the 2GS either: https://github.com/jtflanagan/AppleTini/tree/main

Very interesting, thank you for the link. I wonder if the VGA card (https://en.infinityproducts.co.jp/product-page/a-vga-mini-card) is compatible with the 2GS.

I'm tempted to get the Floppy Emu. About the color monitor support I looked at this link: https://www.apple2faq.com/apple2faq/apple-iigs-modern-video-options/ and the cheapest + available option seems to be an RGB to SCART cable (+ SCART to VGA converter): https://www.ebay.fr/itm/375804659870

I have an Amstrad CPC 6128. Is there a way to connect it to an apple ii gs as its colour monitor ?

Thanks, I found a tutorial to dissassemble it

Thanks for the link

Thanks for the link but it doesn't support the analog boards.

Interesting thread as I'm about to get an apple ii gs with no HD or floppy drive. What is the most cost efficient board to run floppy and hard disks (or HD only) from an SD (or other card) ? The SmartPortSD looks very interesting, and I saw I can buy the PCS online. However links to the...

Hi, I purchased a Mac SE 5011 as I needed to replace the floppy drive in my Mac SE/30. I'm trying to figure out if this Mac SE can be restored. The motherboard (820-0250) is in a fairly bad state since the battery leaked. I removed it and cleaned the board. It seems to be ok now overall. When I...

Hi, I found a replacement floppy drive for my Mac SE 30. It's a Sony MP-F51W-23 (MFD-51W-03) on the side that I took from a dead Mac. Using the cable with the red stripe, the drive loads and ejects disks ok but all disks are unreadable. I noticed the upper head didn't touch the floppy disk...

Hi, I just bought a Mac SE M5011 to restore which has a Radius Full Page Display 64KHz with a 9 pins port at the back: I found this software for Mac SE: https://macintoshgarden.org/apps/radius-system-software-v25, and DB9 to VGA converters online but I wonder if this will work on a new screen...

Thanks, I will try it ! :D

When I tried the shortcuts, I did use separate SCSI IDs.

I installed System Picker and I use a single partition HD0 on which I copied the System Folder from 7.0.1 and 6.0.5 partitions using VMac. Running System Picker, it scans all System folders and let me reboot with a different Mac OS. It works well except 2 issues: 1. The desktop content from HD0...

Thanks for the information. I will try the System Picker. Should I install the 3 OSes on the same disk image e.g. HD0 using VMac, or use separate disk images (all named HDO....hda ?)

Thanks for the link, I managed to download the patch. What are the risks of running OS8 on an SE/30 ? Performance issues, crashes even with 20, 32 or more RAM ? I will give it a go as it sounds fun, yet hoping it could be a stable replacement of 7.5 to use the Mac.

I'm very pleased with my BlueSCSI v2. As a feature enhancement for BlueSCSI team, would it be possible & feasible to support a multi boot like Linux GRUB so a user can choose to boot with alternative HD0 partitions e.g. to switch between Mac OS 6, 7... ?

I bought new purple 4 * 4MB RAM which work well on my Mac SE 30. I found an interesting article to install Mac OS 8 on a Mac SE 30 from MetalBabble blog. However the links to download the os8 patch no longer works. Has anyone try it and has a copy of the required files, especially the patch ?

I installed 16MB RAM to have a total of 20MB RAM. It works well and most games run now without any error. The only exception is Star Wars which also crashed in miniVMac on a PC so I assume it doesn't work well with 7 Mac OS as suggested.

Ok thanks for the info. So I understand that I need to disable the 32 bit mode and increase my RAM to avoid games crashing if I keep Mac OS 7.5.
