If you want to get the most upgrades into your machine then definitely go with Bolle's, I bought one and its really nice to have the NIC built in and frees up a slot for when an internal grayscale card is released or I can get my hands on one.

Unfortunately I never was able to resolve the issue, I was tired of throwing parts at it without success and ended up getting a new AB.

Can't wait for the opportunity to be able to get one of these if they become available, would definitely make for the ultimate compact Mac.

I didn't really mind the bit of hazy though I do see the appeal of the crystal clear. I figured I would grab one while they still had some so I wouldn't end up regretting never having the chance to buy such a limited product, its really well crafted. I'm wondering how it would look if it...

I wanted to go with black chrome look but couldn't find any spray local, so thought this would go well. I did fortunately think to check continuity, everything is good to go on that end.

Just wanted to show off a bit of work that I did today. The chassis had a bit of rust on one of the rails so I felt it would be a perfect candidate to do a bit of painting on it and show off in the beautiful Mac Effects case. After taking off the rust and cleaning everything thoroughly, I...

Big cap definitely doesn't fit, check JDW's recapping video for the Sony PSU at around 22:21 -

Good Morning, I have seen quite a few tutorials on how to install System 7.5.3 & 8.1 so I decided to create my own HDA image that will work on a bluescsi (and possibly other such devices) that will work for an SE/30 with an upgraded ROM (such as the MACSIMM or BMOW). The image has not been...

Sent you a message!

I'll try to get one working tonight, shouldn't be too bad to do and will give me an excuse to fire up the SE/30!

Could be, not sure what points it needs to be in contact at to ground? I haven't tested the AB fully outside of the case because i'm not sure if thats safe to do without the flyback being connected.

An Update to this: I've replaced a few more common failure components. I replaced the RIFA cap that was cracked in the above photo along with a film cap. I also replaced the 1N4148 diodes and an IRFBC40 MOSFET. Board is still having the same issue and I feel like I'm coming up short on ideas...

Good Evening Looking for some help with with an analog board issue I'm having. I recently acquired a Color Classic that doesn't power on. With the logic board removed, flipping on the power switch with it plugged in creates a constant clicking sound. Here is what I've tried thus far: Full...

I was able to get Cubase v1.0 to work on my SE, but couldn't get 2.5.1 to work though I didn't fiddle around with it too much. I was however able to get 2.5.1 to work on my SE/30 but that is running 7.5.3 so perhaps it might work on the SE.

Something like a zip drive would work, its pretty inexpensive storage. If you plan on doing future work on the SE then you could go with a Blue SCSI or SCSI2SD and replace the old hard drive with a nice large SD card with all the storage you need.

I have a 2 device SCSI Cable coming in so that I can image the original HDD. The original has 7.5.3 installed on it and seems to be from the University of Wisconsin library, all kinds of interesting links for getting library resources (which no longer work).

I have always wanted a Macintosh SE/30 but the prices that they go for always seemed out of reach. I have been watching a lot of repair videos on them since it is an area of interest, then when one popped up for sale in "working just prior to listing but now not booting", I knew I had to go for...

Thanks for the welcome! I walked through the steps on the gethub wiki, i used a premade image , I tried a few, they were named HD00_512.hda or HD10_512.hda , looking through the log that was saved on the SD card it had that the card initialized and had the two columns with the names placed under...

Good Morning - I have a Macintosh SE that I recently acquired, it has a 40MB Apple Quantum drive, when powered on, the disk spins but does not attempt to read. I opened the drive and made sure that the head isn't stuck and fixed the sticky head stops (they weren't very sticky but still worked...
