Hi guys,
I will try to be as clear as I can and mix up two situations without cluttering the forums with two threads as one should be enough.
But I can be lengthy...
Lets have a bit of background, about 1.5 to 2 years ago I got this MacII ci with RGB monitor and a RasterOps/24. The...
I am trying to figure out what might happened to my RasterOps/24 card.
When I got this IIci it was working. Then, when using my External SCSI Zip drive the computer froze.
Since then I wasn't able to boot the machine with the RasterOps card. It hanged on the grey screen.
Today I got a second...
Hi guys.
I have this Mac SE that was running fine.
But its HD stopped like many others I had here due to time, if think.
I put an replacement and started the system (as I usually do with all my Compact/Classic Macs) using my external SCSI Zip Drive using System 7.5.5
Started the formating...
Hi guys.
I have a Mac IIsi board that is not working.
It boots to the grey screen without the mouse pointer or making the boot chime. It does some rattle noise on the speaker though.
It was this way even before removing all the capacitors, washing the board (let it dry for some days) and...
Hi guys,
This card came with an IIcx and I have no clue how to get it working (mostly about the DB9 pinout), if a control panel is needed or how can I attach a DB9 monitor to it.
Here are some pictures:
Thanks in advance.
Have finished the recap.
Removed the caps, washed the board, let it dry for two days, recaped the SMT and Axials.
Now I have sound but with the RasterOps I still can't boot, same sad mac error 0000000F 00000033
And it was working...
Hi Guys,
I just got an Mac IIci. And I am running into a problem. Lets see if someone can help me.
It was stored for many years as the son of the previous owner told me.
I took a quick look inside and noticed one of the RAM sockets has the locks broken so it was loose. I used a small eraser...
I hope some of friends here on the forum have one and could share.
I'm thinking about trying other 68k 16mhz extensions to check if it enables the card but I don't know any other ones.
Hi all!
I have a Mac SE with this board inside.
It was a surprise to find it.
But the original HD is gone.
So, in order to get it working I need some sort of 68000 extension to enable it.
Anyone have it? Or know where I can get one?
Cheers!
Hi all!
I just got a beautiful Classic II!
(ok I know I need to recap it as soon as possible) :)
Turned it on and worked.
But I opened it to do a quick checkup and probably I was the first person to do it. It had no marks inside at all, everything was in its perfect position. Just some...
Hi Guys,
now I had time to use this Mac SE and noticed it is too slow.
I ran speedometer 3.06 and just got the base score (1.00).
With or without the AoX Card.
May it need an extension to work?
And why is the SE too slow?
Cheers.
I have a working SE/30 board and did a test to try to narrow the problem.
If I remove the RAMs and try to boot, this working board chimes and give me the same pattern as the defective one on the screen.
With the RAMs but without the ROM SIMM the boot is the same as the defective.
So I may...
No it doesn't chime at all.
The board is recapped and the tracers for UE8 are good.
I couldn't just find where is the CLOCKIHB signal (pin 6 of UE8) but I think it is grounded.
No I get no chime.
There was no battery leak.
I replaced the caps near the ROM SIMM and RAM banks. So, I may...
Hi Guys,
I am still trying to fix my SE/30.
I was able to get a possible replacement for UE8, 74ALS166.
I installed it but still no boot.
Is it a replacement for LS166D ??
Thanks in advance
