I see 3 options in PC Setup CP: Apple 14, Apple 16 and VGA. Tried all of them, but same result: black screen...
I have 2 MAC video adapters. One with 10 DIP switches (http://myoldmac.net/FAQ/RGB-VGA-DIP-switchconfiguration.htm) and an other one UnimacFly with 8 switches...
Good news!! A fresh install of Mac OS 7.6.1 and PC Setup 1.0.3 solved one half of my problem :) The PC is booting with the "TinyBootDisk", and PC Setup says: "PC running"! Still I am not able to get picture of the PC, seems like the monitor receives a signal which it cannot take. Do you think...
I use the default 4 ended cable that came with the card. One end goes to the card, one end to the MAC video out, and one goes to the monitor (adapter with dip switches)
Just installed Mac OS 7.5.5, with the same PC Setup 1.6.4, and same results... Removed the SIMM RAM from the card, and it caused the whole machine to freeze once I hit "Start PC" in PC Setup, so it is even worse.
Regarding cables: I use the 4 ended cable, which came with the card. There is only...
Yes, I tried. Same result... Booting forever, and if switching to PC mode, only blank screen after the fade out... Now I am installing Mac OS 8.1, and give a try there... Maybe a fresh install helps. Maybe...
Which Mac OS do you recommend for this DOS card on the Quadra 950?
After putting it back and restarting, this is what I see at the start screen. First a lot of icons are coming, then all those are disappearing, and only the C> icon comes... What does this mean? :)
This is how it looks like while booting:
Reseating and repasting didn't help :(
Some people told me it can be an issue with the monitor. I have an Apple M1212 CRT, and a Samsung TFT with an adapter (with those DIP switches). Can it be a problem that the DOS card is not recognizing the...
The card is in a Quadra 950 (it has 486SX on board), PC Setup 1.6.4 is installed on both Mac OS 7.6.1 and 8.0. When I start the PC in PC Setup, it only says “PC is booting”… and hangs in the booting stage. Switching to PC mode fades the screen to black and it remains black until I switch back...
Thanks for the quick answer! I also thought running the cables through the back, but the card itself is so heavy, that the PDS slot alone will not keep it at its place if the tower is standing vertically as it supposed to stand. What frame should be used there? Any links to a 3D printed frame?
Hi All! How do you fix the Houdini II card to a Quadra 950? The card is significantly shorter than it supposed to be in order to fix it to the back of the machine. The PDS is almost in the middle of the logic board, behind the NuBus slot. Any good solutions to fix it with some 3rd party tool...
