    Came across a card today that I believe is out of a PowerMac G3. It is labeled with 14943 Vincent 601. What exactly is this card used for?

    BlueSCSI Plugged into AppleCD 300 Adpater

    Well a Bluescsi V2 does not work on the IIfx when daisy-chained behind the CD drive. Could this be because of the odd way things need terminated on the IIfx?

    I have ordered a db25 gender changer. Found an additional db25m to cn50m to use with that. Will see if this works.

    BlueSCSI Plugged into AppleCD 300 Adpater

    I am looking for a CN50 male to DB25 female adapter so that I could plug my BlueSCSI, with external DB25 plug, into the back of my AppleCD300 which has CN50 connectors. I cant seem to find anything when Googling. Does anyone have any idea where I might find one?

    My IIfx came with a 3rd part SCSI HDD that no longer works. I am going to be using a BlueSCSI externally once it comes in. Doing some research though I have found that an internal filter and SCSI terminator should be installed into the internal SCSI port when no HDD is used. Is this...

    I am using a FloppyEmu with my Mac IIfx internally but was hoping to find a way to maybe port the internal floppy conntector to a back mounted external floppy connector port. Is this possible or has it been done before?

    IIfx Momentary Power Switch? (Power Circuit Bypass)

    I have offically given up on repairing my power circuit on a Mac IIfx. Brand new batteries and all I just cant figure out what is preventing the power circuit from working. Everything works fine otherwise but I am left having to pop the case lid and jump start with a coin battery. Is there a...

    Announcing broadATX for Mac II, IIx, and IIfx

    I am interested in one of these but it shows sold out on the site. Will these be back in stock anytime soon? I am not far from St Louis. I could either pick up in person or have it shipped.

    Connecting old Macintosh to the net using serial

    Thanks!  That was it.  It was in the Apple Extras folder.  But unfortunately,  following the tutorial from retroadventures.net step by step I was not able to get it working in the end.  Keep getting a Link Dead error.

    Connecting old Macintosh to the net using serial

    I installed open transport which removed MacTcp.  I would like to put Mactcp back on but when I try to place it into the control panel folder it says there is an invisible file with the same name already there.  Is there any way I can get a Mactcp reinstalled?
