    [Help] Bolle Twinspark/MacCon won't connect to network.

    For completeness, have you tried a different ethernet cable, or a known good one, or verified you aren't accidentally using a crossover cable (all things I've done in the past)...

    I Bought 8 x 16MB SIMMs from tindie.

    Also without a customized/updated ROM that skips the RAM check, the time-to-splash screen can be several minutes with a gray screen and a responsive cursor. The RAM check was designed when 8MB was the standard max and the 64MB check can be a lot longer.

    BlueSCSI and System Switcher basic question

    The case cracker is harder to find these days. You WILL need a long shaft Torx T15 screwdriver to remove the screws under the handle (at least 15cm long) And I have found that a set of plastic spudgers is gentle enough to loosen the plastic around the case so you can pull the back half off...
