    Macintosh Plus 1mb - Using files from the SCSI device?

    I apologize then. I came off as a bit of a dickhead. I ended up Using your image on Basilisk II and copied it over to the 5.1 image. DSK images still can't be mounted so i ended up opening them in 7.5.5 and copying the contents of the actual image over to the 5.1 image which seems to work...

    Macintosh Plus 1mb - Using files from the SCSI device?

    I'm running the REAL hardware off of a sillytinySCSI that i bought from ZigZag. With a 5.1 image from Reality’s website since I don’t own any Macintosh floppies. I have a means of emulating 6.0.8 on mini vmac however none of the images that Realitystorm has on his websites work. with mini Vmac...

    Macintosh Plus 1mb - Using files from the SCSI device?

    So issue is your images don't work on mini vmac. or at least the one i downloaded does not. I downloaded quite a few of them but they all come up with the dreaded X mac icon when trying to load. Perhaps i did somethign wrong though but i've read over your guide a few times >.< i'll try again...

    Macintosh Plus 1mb - Using files from the SCSI device?

    Sooo i did get an image working for Vmac that is 6.0.8 which i'm happy with. However none of the images i can find come with a way to mount disks on the desktop.. So even if i trasnfer over the DSK files to the 6.0.8 desktop. i can't use them on real hardware since the 6.0.8 image can't mount them.

    Macintosh Plus 1mb - Using files from the SCSI device?

    Hiya Folks. thought it was just easier to make a new post since the issue is different.. At the moment i've gotten my Macintosh plus to boot on system 5.1. using the image on https://www.savagetaylor.com/downloads/downloads-macintosh/#3_contents_of_my_images However i can't seem to do anything...

    Ended up figuring it out but it appears the keyboard is toast... doesn't type or anything..

    Anyone have a guide for setting up ZuluSCSI on the SillyTinySCSI? I"m finding very little info online ^^;;

    Macintosh Plus 1MB Won't boot Help/Guidance?

    Huzzah. the new one works. It had a broken floppy drive and a broken back cover that was cracked to crap (Made worse by shipping i'm positive). Unfortunately i probably only caused more damage to the cover taking it off. but i replaced it with the old one. replaced the drive. cleaned it up a bit...

    Loud buzzing noise coming from Mac Classic

    Perhaps my track-record with macintosh currently doesn't validate me to offer some assurance but as someone who works on CRT's in arcade monitors. That just sounds like regular monitor noise/flyback. If you were to adjust the voltage (i'm assuming the classic has one like the plus) or the...

    Macintosh Plus 1MB Won't boot Help/Guidance?

    i believe our boards are slightly different as our boards are different colours and i can't actually seem to find a C24 *unless it's been obstructed by the amount of glue they put around the capacitors* However i did find a C25 capacitor in the EXACT (based on photos) position of the one you're...

    Unlikely it's the harness as i tested continuity with it unplugged on both sides. I know it's on Analog PCB because with the analog/power PCB connected to absolutely nothing. it still persists on pins 7 9 10.(Pin 7 and 9 are both continuity together since they're both ground and on the same...

    Macintosh Plus 1MB Won't boot Help/Guidance?

    So i went out on a adventure today albeit a snow stormy one and bought some Solder wick. A Solder Sucker that sucks. and a new soldering iron with a sharper tip. I removed all the previous work i had done and redid it to look better.. Between pins 9 and 10 on J4 it's not beeping for continuity...

    These two wires have continuity between eachother. i believe the yellow one is 12volts and the orange one is ground based on this post.. https://tinkerdifferent.com/resources/mac-128k-512k-plus-logic-board-cable-to-atx-video-audio.3/

    Macintosh Plus 1MB Won't boot Help/Guidance?

    Welp. I'm out of ideas. I cleaned the hell out of logic board with Q-tips and alcohol. everything looks fine on the logic. I redid the wires and put more appropriate shielded wires on as opposed to the cloth ones i used previously. I reheated every single solder joint..... and still no luck...
