Extreme Systems - Impact 030 Accelerator (LC, LCII)

[Drake]

I recently purchased an LCII with a nice surprise inside:

But so far it's just a pretty hood ornament without the proper extension/control panel files. My searches online for the original installation files have lead me to 1 or 2 links **BUT** those .sit files are corrupt!

I'm hoping that by pure magic someone may have a disk, backup or sneaky link to something that will work.

An update for posterity, the Impact accelerator is compatible with the Micromac Thunder control panel!

You can also use this:

Total Systems Enterprise 030 Driver - Macintosh Garden

This driver enables all features of the Total Systems/Applied Engineering Enterprise 030 Accelerator Board for the Macintosh LC. The correct way to install this is to put the control panel into the extensions folder, make an alias and put that alias into the control panels folder.

That's what came on the hard drive of an LC I got with that accelerator in it.

There's probably a very limited number of ways to tell a CPU to roll over and play dead.
