Hello Guest! We're hosting a challenge to welcome vintage Intel macs to the MLA during the month of July! See this thread for more information.
OrangePC Card on IIfx

got an orange386 and still trying to figure out where to put it since ISA extenders i havent come across as of yet
iici and into its digidesign expansion chassis. dedicated a macintosh ii/x to it?

The ISA slots are a nice inclusion but fitting anything in there is quite the design flaw! I'd look out for a ISA riser card from a 386, 486 slimline case (with 90 degree slots) that allows you to fit a card in upside down, so to speak. Other option would be a really low profile network or sound card.
386DX (32 bit memory) and above need 4 of the exact same SIMMs, you cannot install them in uneven pairs. 3 and 9 chip SIMMs work best (parity) unlike macs which don't care.

The isa cards i want is a soundblaster 1.5 and a mpu clone. Best method is to make a ribbon extender into a breakout chassis.

the inception idea is a good one but the isa extender needs to be created precisely to fit.

I was able to get my hands on a Quantum 1.2gb SCSI drive (hopefully it works - I have one in my external Apple drive and my other IIfx).
The plan is to dedicate 300MB for System 7.1, and 900MB for the OrangePC side (currently have a 250MB Quantum in the IIfx and I’m maxing out on storage lol).
My question is - will my particular 25mhz 486 OrangePC card be able to handle Windows 95? I have the upgrade version on floppies. I don’t really want to deal with DOS 6/Win 3.1 again, but if I must I must.

Sorry, I’m just jumping into this thread, how much ram does this orange PC Card have?
Currently 10MB. Plan to upgrade to 16MB, which I think is the max for this card
I'd do the upgrade then install Win 95. With 10MB, it will probably be a painful experience.
