    Clean install of 7.5.3

    Pressing C doesn't seem to be doing anything.

    Clean install of 7.5.3

    I've looked everywhere and I cannot find a clear and concise instructional for how to do this, so I'm asking here in hopes of somebody being able to direct me to some good instructions, or lay it out for me.  What I want to do is format a HDD on a 575LC and do a fresh install of OS 7.5.3...

    Recapping Macintosh Classic - 1uf 50v Capacitor?

    Anyone know I can get one of these? I looked on Mouser but didn't see any. I did see a .1uf 50v, is that the same? Thanks for your help!

    Using Disks Between My Macintosh Classic and 575

    Hmmm. Odd. I just don't get it. The disks interchange between all my other 575s abd 6115CDs without issue, and the classic and Plus interchange without issue, but interchanging the disks between those two groups doesn't work at all.

    Using Disks Between My Macintosh Classic and 575

    So, if I'm understanding correctly, the Classic can't create floppies that will work on a 575 and vise verse? I got a replacement drive for the classic (no more external drive) and I still can't interchange disks.

    Using Disks Between My Macintosh Classic and 575

    So I was trying to transfer some games from my LC 575 to my Macintosh Classic (internal drive is busted, so I had to use an external drive) and it doesn't seem as though they use a compatible file structure? Does that sound correct or is something amiss here? The external drive is a M0131. Thanks!

    What about Wolfenstein 3d? Runs like crap on my 575s.

    Just wanted to update this. I've now got three successful recaps under my belt and they all went well. I highly recommend giving it a shot if you're thinking about doing it. It's a slight pain in the ass, but well worth it and hardly impossible to do.

    Upgrading to Full 68040 - Heatsink Needed?

    Ok, so it's still a good idea to do the swap then?

    Upgrading to Full 68040 - Heatsink Needed?

    Ok, not sure what anyone is saying. The plan was to swap the stock cpu on my LC 575 with this: http://m.ebay.com/itm/111633589714?euid=53fb61ae6fb34856a8be059ee404075d&_mwBanner=1 But I'm assuming that since my stock runs at 33mhz, and the one I bought runs at 33mhz, there's probably...

    Upgrading to Full 68040 - Heatsink Needed?

    Holy crap, didn't realize this was that complicated. Thought I could just plug and play. Ah well, screw it. Bought the wrong processor anyway. This is all more trouble than it's worth.
