Cory5412, thanks for the quick reply. I would have posted a comment under the post I originally created, however my UI does not provide me with a reply control (I tried different web browsers just to make sure I did not have a compatibility problem). Concerning the attachment problem, I placed...

Hello All, I am hopeful that someone can assist with the problem that I have encountered. I have scanned several product manuals and made high-resolution low-megabyte PDF files that I want to upload to this site. Two of the files I have completed are the instruction manuals for the FWB NuBus...

Hello, I sent you a private message the other day. Was not sure if you had received it. Let me know. Thanks.

One of the projects I have been working on is getting my vintage hardware up and running. Early documentation (before PDFs) is getting much more difficult to find on-line. I am taking the time to archive some of the documentation I have with my hardware in a high-quality format so that a...

Good to know the delay is normal. I will proceed with the long memory test. I did try running just single pairs of SIMMs to see if I received startup errors. However as the startup error is sporadic, I did not receive any errors when I did this. I do think that I have identified the pair of...

Hello All, I had a rather quick question which will hopefully be simple to answer. I recently purchased some RAM for my PowerMac 8100/80 (6 32MB SIMMS to be precise.) After installing the RAM and occasionally after the System Tune-up INIT loads, I get a message telling me "The built-in memory...

This is excellent! I had also been looking for the old AT&T Viewers and had all but given up. I will test the 68k viewer found here on my Quadra and hopefully this will be my solution. I do remember that the AT&T viewers were somewhat buggy which is why I was looking for the MacVNC...

Hello all, I am looking for a copy of the freeware program "MacVNC 1.2" 68k version. MacVNC 1.2 was a non-carbon freeware VNC viewer program developed by Purple Shark. I have been looking for this program for quite some time but have had no luck finding it on the internet. I have the PPC...

That was pretty much my reaction when I hooked the thing up for the first time. :) Do you feel that a bad crystal would also be responsible for the monochrome display? Also, one time I did actually get to see my mouse pointer move, although the screen looked like the second picture I posted...

It is a color image. Resolution is something other than 640x480. Not sure which resolution however. No documentation and I have tried all NuBus slots in both of my Macs with the same results. The chips that I think are the RAM look like they would be impossible to replace, at least by me. They...

On point 1, Yes it does. On point 2, Yes it does. On point 3, The screen captures in both instances came back displaying the GUI perfectly. On point 4, The VRAM is soldered directly to the card. I can provide a picture of the card, but I am unsure which chips represent the VRAM. 1 other...

I installed the card in a PowerMac 8100/80 and a Quadra 650.

I cannot. I don't have the installation media for OS 7.6.1 or 8. However I doubt it is OS related as the problem occurs before the OS loads into memory. Also I know these cards were compatible with System 7.1.

The version of ROM is 1.2.3. I have also tried taking the card back to factory settings, but this does not solve the problem.

Hi, I just today received a Radius Thunder IV GX 1360 card. I have installed the card and am seeing strange behavior. As I have never used one of these cards before I am not sure if this is normal, if the card requires configuration or if the card is defective. Upon system start-up, my display...
