I going to work on the Classic II next. I posted about that in the Campacts section. I will wash it like I did the LC, with water and a toothbrush then douse it with alcohol before letting it dry for several days.

I'm going to get to work on mine soon, but I need a torx that will fit down in the holes in the handle. I have one in my tool kit but it's too thick for those. Don't remember what I used last time I opened one of these but I know I opened my old SE. I resurrected my LC520 by cleaning the logic...

That's really cool and I hope you find some good tricks for it. It's great to have older hardware doing tricks in places where they can shown off in style! :D

So I recently got my Classic II out of storage and it has the checkerboard screen disease. I also rescued a Classic this weekend that seems to have video board trouble. I may not even bother with it and stick to maybe fixing the Classic II. Classic II's can be lovely little machines for small...

Over the weekend I managed to get my LC520 back in working condition. Boots from HD just fine, but looks like I need to boot from a floppy and run Disk Tools. It thinks the HD is mostly full when there's really not much on there. At least it works after washing the motherboard(I love how easy it...

Rest In Peace and thank you. :(

Monitors CP showed monitor set to greys. MacJunky, you were absolutely correct. I hadn't noticed even though I was in the Monitors CP because I saw colors set to millions. Never realized there was a separate setting next to it that could be changed. Thank you!

I will check that out as soon as I get home this evening and see if it helps. Thanks!

Forgive me and feel free to move this if it's not under the right category. I have a little problem with the Apple icon on the Apple menu on my IIci running OS 7.6. It's not the multicolor Apple icon anymore. It's the very small B&W Apple and looks a little awkward. It's been that way since...

Wow! Sounds like you scored big time! That's exactly the kind of stuff I am hoping to find to use with my vintage Macs. I was just about to post a thread questioning what synth or sound generation software I should be looking for for my 68k Macs. I may still post about that later but for now...

I always wanted a IIfx after interning at Planet Dallas Recording Studio around 1997. They had one running Pro Tools 3 I think with an 8 channel audio interface. We used early Power Macs when I went to audio engineering school in '96 and '97 but the IIfx looked cooler and was something different...

It's strange because it's a great sound card but most MIDI apps want to look at the serial port and fail to see the PAS16. I've not used that function much on mine but I'm hoping that the IIci can handle some lo-fi sounds and MIDI now that it's back out and being set up. Surely it's just a CP...

Nice Mac history. I look forward to your IIfx story in Mac II, Quadra & Centris later. Glad to meet you.

OK. That's what I figured. I am a member of some pro audio groups that are similar. I really didn't realize a group for 68k Macs existed here although I had seen the name before coming up in searches. I am into much of the same type of things you mention in your signature, Unknown_K. Anything...

Hey thanks everybody. Just to help introduce myself further, here is an article I wrote for MY Turn on Lowendmac back in 2002 that details my main IIci that I still have and am currently getting back up and running. http://lowendmac.com/myturn/02/0628.html Not trying to brag and I don't...

Or is it just me and this is normal for this board? I noticed at least 3 new members posts in the forum after I joined today. Is this normal or are more and more people pulling out their old Macs lately and trying to get them running again? It leads me to wonder how many are going to get them...

I should have been here long before now as I've rescued many, many 68k Macs in my life. I have recently been pulling out most of my vintage collection and getting some up and running again. All that's left of what used to be a fairly extensive collection is 2 IIci's, a Classic II, and an LC 520...
