10.3 doesn't need XPostFacto - it's the last system that's officially supported. I was able to mostly solve the issue - I repartitioned the drive with Drive Setup (and not Disk utility from the OSX install disc) and situated the OSX and OS9 partitions within the first 8GB of the drive. I think...

I have here a Powerbook G3 Lombard/Bronze keyboard that I can't for the life of me get to hold an OSX install. I can install 10.3 just fine, but after one or two reboots or cold boots, it refuses to start up - I get the "prohibited" icon screen no matter what. I can't even boot to OS9 on the...

What Is The Apple IIGS? and it's contributors managed to find the driver and put it on one of their compilations. I haven't tested it as I managed to find a better SCSI card, solving the problem. However, anyone else who wants to try and boot from this combination of Rev. C SCSI card and PCMCIA...

I was trying to see if there was any way around the problems I've been having with removable drives and this bit from the Apple II FAQ came up: Searches for this driver come up empty. Does anyone have a copy of it?

Forgot to mention - my SCSI card is a Rev. C Apple II SCSI Card.

I have an Apple IIGS booting from a CompactFlash card in a PCMCIA-SCSI adaptor (Microtech PCD-25BH). Most of the time, It works OK. Every few minutes or so, however, it ejects the boot disk and all other cards in the adaptor! I have to manually eject and reinsert them to get them to show up...

Nice to know that someone finally found that goddamn pinout. The way old-world mac monitor port sense lines work can make that sort of thing really difficult to beep out.

Fixed! I went and bought the iisi PDS version of the card, dumped it's ROM, and it turns out they are cross compatible! Pivoting works perfectly now, even under 7.5.5. Here's my dump of the ROM: http://www.sendspace.com/file/8r41g8

Holding down the Shift key doesn't change anything. The Mac in question is a IIci running System 7.5.5. The card DOES work correctly if I connect a regular monitor to it, which is strange. It's as if the Pivot's weird sense codes are confusing it. I really think I need the later ROM at this...

Is there a version of this hack for the LC520 board, which is supposed to be exactly the same except rearranged to fit the all-in-one case?

It looks like you'll need to find someone with a working specimen of that display and the cable it came with, and ask him to beep it out for you. No idea if there's anyone here with the original B&W Pivot, but at least the card you have should be able to drive not only any Pivot display, but...

Some time ago I got a Radius Pivot Color NuBus card in the hopes of getting something working with the Pivot monitor I have. The card has the part number 632-0070, and the following is written on the EPROM: ©1991 RADIUS INC PIVOT/COLOR V 2.2 256K U5 295-0014-A Other than what's written on...

5.2 is supposed to be the last 68K version, and I can't find evidence of it anywhere. Surely it must exist on some disk somewhere?

Someone should make a Mockingbird GS that combines a stereo card with a Mockingboard. I'd buy it.

Possible RAM issues. Also, replace all SMT motherboard capacitors, as cap rot can cause all sorts of weirdness.
