Hi everyone
Grateful to have 68KMLA going strong. Jeremy from Australia
Am doing a comprehensive service of my colour classics, re-capping the power supplies and enjoying it.
I have put together my own cap list, resistor upgrades and taken notes.
One thing I can't work out is where I can...
No idea but cool story. Honestly I'm glad to hear people still finding stuff like this. I do have repair manuals for this on my public repo https://jbretro.wordpress.com/the-latest-google-drive-link/
Open the Gdrive link and search laserwriter
Well I've just bought a Quadra 950 that turns on for a second and then each second it drops power and fans spin down, next second up, then down. Poor PSU must be suffering in there so I killed power quickly and started searching online. And here we are! Reading your journey from the first...
Subject: Power Macintosh 7300 stops working after tantalum recap

Looks like it's time to learn Basilisk as...
Hi everyone

The ever fast in replying Steve from BMOW suggets compatibility is only raw (.dsk) and disk copy 4.2 (.img) files, and if I'd like to use DiskCopy 6...
I too am interested in this. The CF solution is great and I wonder if better performance would come of MSATA drives. Both my PB1400's have CF IDE solutions now

The latest addition to my personal Macintosh collection is the Colour Classic. The only description the younger seller gave was it didn’t turn on. Not being one to gamble I was...
