    DOS on Mac

    Everything became clear. I tore off the sticker on the marking and found out that "FV80503200" refers to embedded systems. Some sellers on eBay indicate it. Well, I didn't know that and found another Pentium MMX 200 Mhz (SL2RY) in a ceramic case that should definitely work here. I was...

    DOS on Mac

    Yesterday I finally received NEC 424210-60-G memory chips from China. I installed it, now there are 4 MB of video memory! :cool: I also wanted to change the processor to Pentium MMX 200 Mhz, but something went wrong. After replacing the processor and changing the position of the Mac jumpers...

    NuBus mount for BlueSCSI v2

    @jimfrob Yes, exactly, you're right. If you put it at an angle, everything works out. I still have to order BlueSCSIv2 to finally connect it to ATTO ExpressSilicon IV.

    NuBus mount for BlueSCSI v2

    As far as I understand, the Q650 and Q950 cases are not much different. I printed it out and tried it on my Q950 -- it doesn't fit. I'll try to make the frame not much thinner so that it can move deeper, beyond the petals. In this case, it should be better.

    sit - Create StuffIt archives on Unix systems

    @JDW And the attack of cloned messages? 🤪 @eric I didn't know about such a utility, thank you, I'll try it. My passion for vintage machines began not so long ago, and at the very beginning of the journey in the garden or repository I read that you need to use only BIN so that metadata does...

    Best monitor for vintage Macintosh

    @phunguss This cable has shielding, but it may be of really low quality. On the other hand, I returned to the description of this product in the store, it says that it is suitable for cash registers, modems, barcode scanners, etc. If you connect such a cable directly using adapters from both...

    Best monitor for vintage Macintosh

    Hmm... I don't have any other Mac VGA cables. When connecting directly using the cable and adapter, there is an effect, but it is not so pronounced.

    Best monitor for vintage Macintosh

    Hey! I have an old 19" Acer AL1917 monitor that I connect to different beige Macintosh. As far as I understand, this monitor should work at 1280x1024@75. However, I've always noticed that the VGA connection is strange, the text seems to be doubled or smeared. Recently, I received a KVM switch...

    Documentation for DB15 to VGA adapters

    I got a VGA -> MacVGA adapter This allowed me to connect the DOS Card to the ATi Radeon 7000. I didn't know it existed.

    sit - Create StuffIt archives on Unix systems

    @thecloud I have some similar solutions for shortcuts on AppleScript, so I adapted them quickly enough. tell application "Finder" --Creating an array for selected files set SelectedItems to {} -- Create an array for the POSIX list of paths set POSIXList to {} -- We transfer...

    Someone Installed MacOS On An iPad

    UTM on iPhone 16 Pro Max after the latest updates copes with the launch of Mac OS 9.2.2. It takes longer to boot than on Mac, but in general, the OS works well. Network connections are also available, the screenshot shows how I connected the netatalk network directory. :)

    DB15 to DB15 Apple VGA cable pin-out

    Finally, I received all the orders, DB15 cables, S-Video (ADB) and this KVM switch. Everything works! I connected PM G3MT and Quadra 950 + DOS Card and I can switch with KVM. You were right, the BD15 cable has straight lines: 1-1, 2-2, 3-3, etc.

    Macintosh Server G3

    I have ZIF G4 350, I tried to install it on my Mac, but I didn't like how the system works. For normal operation, you need to install the driver (XLR8), otherwise the L2 cache does not connect and the machine runs slowly. This is especially noticeable in Mac OS launched in BluBox in Rhapsody...

    Flashing the Silicon Image Sil3112 to work in Macs (2025 Edition)

    When I first started modifying these cards, I made a few for some time, 6-8 pieces. I had a couple of cards that worked in about the same way -- the disks were not visible, or connected, the file system was not available, formatting never worked. Replacing the capacitors solved these problems.

    Help With TL866 ii Plus on a MAC

    When you are too lazy to mess with the terminal window, you can install Windows 7 on a UTM virtual machine and pass the USB. It works fast even on AppleSilicon-based Mac. At first I tried to use Windows 10/11, but the performance was terrible, even if you allocate 12 cores.

    Macintosh Server G3

    I've encountered problems on G3 MiniTower, not Server, but I think it doesn't matter. I had a lot of problems with switching on, on motherboards with different revisions. Symptom: turn on, no bong, no image, only the sound of the cooler. Turn it off, turn it on, normal booting. The solution...

    Modern MacBinary Tool for MacOS 26

    I use StuffIt Delux in Sheepshaver. It's not always convenient, but you can always run the application and understand whether you need it on a vintage Macintosh machine or not. :)

    DOS on Mac

    Try to add it to STARTNET.BAT C:\Windows\LSL.EXE C:\Apple\MACODI.COM But please note that NET.CFG should be located in the same place as MACODI.COM. Most likely, the path to the file can be passed as an argument, but these experiments can be left for later. Try it, maybe it will work.

    DOS on Mac

    @Byte Knight Do you have LSL.EXE and MACODI.COM files in C:\NWCLIENT? In the same directory where MACODI.COM is located, you need to create NET.CFG with the content that is in the instructions. Also need to create C:\STARTNET.BAT This should bind ODI to a remote network card, as far as I understand.
