    BlueSCSI v2 - DaynaPORT WiFi!

    Awesome! Confirmed working for me on the latest build. On an SE/30 it takes me about a minute and a half to pull down a 1.4 MB floppy image from a share. Not sure if it is just me, but one thing I did notice is that the Pico no longer flashes the LED 5 times to indicate no SD card present. I...

    BlueSCSI v2 - DaynaPORT WiFi!

    Doh! I somehow missed that step in the documentation. Touched a NE4.hda file and now I am up and running!

    BlueSCSI v2 - DaynaPORT WiFi!

    Tried this out on my SE/30. I socketed the Pico on my Desktop BlueSCSI v2 in anticipation for this feature and put the new firmware on a PicoW. I wasn't able to get it working for some reason. After installing the drivers, the DaynaPort isn't seen by any SCSI utilities or the diagnostics...

    SE/30 Power issues

    Thanks @retr01. I ran a good 40+ minutes putting it through it's paces with benchmarks and everything seems stable.

    SE/30 Power issues

    So interesting update on my SE/30. I was doing some more troubleshooting and it seemed that when I moved things around, it changed from working to non-working. I was testing voltages at the bottom of the logic board (at the J12 connector) with the whole machine face down and getting the same...

    SE/30 Power issues

    From the wiring harness coming out of the power supply, I get the following as measured from the back of the analog board while in a failure state: Yellow +12v = 12.25v Red +12v sweep = 12.10v Orange +5v = 5.06v Green -12v: -11.85v So, while it is the original power supply (Aztec), it seems to...

    SE/30 Power issues

    I have an SE/30 that seems to not be getting the 12v it needs to the logic board. It is somewhat intermittent in that I can occasionally get it to boot and read 12v out the external floppy connector but most of the time it fails to boot and I just read around 3.6v instead of 12v (as a side note...

    Macintosh SE Motherboard Photos wanted

    This is my 820-0176-B board. I reversed a couple things for the photo to look more stock: I had clipped R35 on one side for a 4MB upgrade so I scooted it back over so it would look connected. I also pulled the Varta battery out previously so I just set it back on the board (I keep all my old...

    Reliability of safety filter caps: RIFA vs. WIMA

    I recently acquired an Apple IIe manufactured in 1985. Expecting to need replace the RIFA caps in the power supply as to prevent the notorious puff of smoke, I opened up the DynaComp (606-5001) power supply and found WIMA MKS-4 caps instead of RIFA caps. These capacitors are encapsulated in...

    PowerBook G4 (15" FW800) Trackpad issues

    Has anyone ever revived a dead trackpad on an Aluminum PowerBook G4? My 15 inch trackpad is completely unresponsive with no cursor movements and the button does not work. I have to use an external mouse for everything. I have tried several times reseating and cleaning with IPA the trackpad flex...

    PowerBook G4 12in not updating to 10.4.11

    Have any other RAM to try? I had all sorts of problems with installing/updating to 10.4.11 on my 15 inch G4 until I narrowed it down to a bad Crucial memory stick. I think the 12's only have one memory slot along with built-in memory. So if you have a stick installed it may be worth trying...
