Hello,Nice to meet you. Are you referring to the discussions on the 68kMLA forum about installing the Total Systems Gemini Ultra accelerator into a Mac 512k? I’ve been following the community threads with great interest—it's a fascinating topic! I noticed your name came up when I searched here, so I couldn’t help but reach out. I’ve also tried installing it on a Mac Plus before.Best regards,

Right off the bat, my adapter is malfunctioning.
When I switch my Carrera 040 to F mode,
the screen remains gray except for the Finder menu.
It still worked in M mode, but now it no longer works in M mode either. The SE30 works fine in S mode.
I've reinstalled System 7.1 several times, but the problem persists. Has anyone else had the same issue?
I'm wondering whether sending it to Germany and having it checked for symptoms is the best way to do this.
I'd appreciate your feedback if you read this.
I suspected a problem with my Carrera 040 and replaced it with my old DayStar adapter.
The S, M, and F modes switched properly, and the benchmark software ran, so I knew the Carrera 040 was still working. Of course, the screen is terrible, with a grid pattern.

Dear Bolle,Greetings. I am contacting you upon the recommendation regarding the adapter for using the Carrera040 with an SE/30. I reside in Japan and would like to inquire whether it is possible to proceed with a transaction. I look forward to your kind response.Sincerely, ID nekogahora280
