    Color Classic Mystic Upgrade Help

    You only can run on an untouched Color Classic with a 575 Board System 7.1 with the described System Enabler 65 1.1 or you have to do a 640x480 Mod to run any other System. Look at http://powercc.org/mystic/

    I use this here: http://cdn-reichelt.de/documents/datenblatt/C800/HA80251V4.pdf It fits perfectly and got and 3 times bigger airflow than the original one. That thing costs in Germany only 2,25€.

    ​LC 575 logic board in a Color Classic: ​Mods to the board?

    mraroid -  you really should use a heat sync with a fan... if you put it to 40MHz it gets very warm ;) In my CC I changed the fan in the case too - on the one hand its much more quiet, on the other hand it cools the components better. You got already the components? For the CPU the most...

    Mraroid - Greets to your success ;) Sound really cool what you realized :) About your problem with the 16GB CF Drive... What kind of filesystem do you use on the partitions? What tool do you use to partition? Did you try the Apple HD SC Setup Tool as the patched version to accept non apple...

    ​LC 575 logic board in a Color Classic: ​Mods to the board?

    Now you are on the right way ;) Okay - I would suggest that you first do the http://www.powercc.org/640x480/ Mod with Option One. Take your time and do it carefully... After that, and when you are on 640x480 and you see a picture - in my opinion, you could easily slide in the CD and boot...

    ​LC 575 logic board in a Color Classic: ​Mods to the board?

    Hi Mraroid, I got 8.1 running good - I got an old original OS 8 CD and just did the update to 8.1... For me there was no problem. My recommendation is, that you do an VGA Hack and over this you can install all kind of MacOS Versions. You mentioned http://www.powercc.org/640x480/ - there is...

    Color Classic Cap Replacement - Unknown Cap CP16

    Hi, I checked out the links you gave me - but nowhere a comment or a value about the CP19. I bought the schematics too, but there are only the schematics of the logic board - not of the analog board... Anyone has a Hint?  :beige:
