I was kinda thinking bad caps, but it appeared after I put in new potentiometers. When I first got the Lisa, the linearity was fine. Though, that was a few months back, and I kinda procrastinated on replacing the potentiometers in the PSU AND Video board.

I’m having a weird vertical linearity issue with my Lisa after replacing the potentiometers in both the PSU (the brightness and focus) and also the video board 5 pots. The tube has also been swapped but switching back to original does not fix it. No amount of adjusting the vertical linearity...

And now my 400K drive in my Lisa stopped working. When it attempts to format disks in BLU, it throws error 1B after a second or two. This happens regardless of disk.

Considering the disk controller still works on both my Lisa and my "Plus," I think my floppyemu finally kicked the bucket, which is unfortunate.

Alright, thanks! Turns out the disk images I found for Lisa OS 3.1 are faulty, and several other archives either don't work on either diskcopy 4.2, DART, or if they do make images, the images don't boot on the Lisa (floppy drive confirmed working with BLU). Does anyone know a good archive that...

Alright, thank you! I cleaned the display strips only to find out that somehow inbetween it dying and now, the FloppyEmu managed to catch a "check pin clko-l" error that doesn't go away with firmware flashing.

What’s the best way to make Lisa disks? I had a hell of a time trying to make some working disks. I thought the Apple Legacy CD images would work but they didn’t (threw unformatted disk error on the Lisa), I tried images from online but StuffIt kept throwing an error when they were unpacked...

I did actually get a display! What’s a good replacement module for the Rev A models? I assume you can’t just jump straight to OLED?

I have a Rev A FloppyEmu that i've used since forever. However, i've been having a weird issue with it, namely that the screen stopped working properly recently. It displays a blank screen unless i'm flashing firmware or the SD card is missing. I've tried flashing the different firmwares. The...

Man, I hope this comes out. I don’t use the TashTwenty because it doesn’t allow a pass through for a floppyemu.

That’s damn cool!

Oh, related to the RAM test problem, does the BMOW ROM work on the Quadra 950, and if so, is there a patched variant that retains the stock Mac icon/boot screen? While I like the little pirate mac, I prefer my systems to look mostly stock.

Cool! I assume it was released with System 7.5?

I've got 7.6.1 installed currently, is AppleShare over IP installed by default? I just used the "everything" install option, and then custom selected everything that I could. Also that's nice to know about the ram check. Does this work for all Macs?

How did you put 245Mb in a IIsi? I thought 65MB was the max you could throw in one. I don't really do post G3 because its boring to me, but if 68K access to Mac Rep/Mac Garden is legit that bad (even after maxing the system), then I might go with it (or just use my iMac G3). Thank you! I've...

Yeah I could get a PowerPC machine (or hell, hook my 3400 to the internet), but I was going to turn my Quadra 950 into a serving machines for other macs. (That is, storing a ton of data on it and burning cds/making disks/network transferring to other macs).

What's the best balance of boot speed (since Macs check the entirety of the RAM or something like that before boot) and RAM amount for a Quadra 950? I want to be able to download files from say, Mac Garden and Mac Rep, but I don't want to toss an entire 256MB kit in it and have it take a year...

Yep! But the drive was free (friend of mine grabbed it at VCFW on the free pile), and it works, so hooray! To whoever looks in the future for this, skip the pioneer software and go straight for CDT. If you still want to use the pioneer software, check above. I believe that software should work...

I probably messed up the settings while attempting to turn it on. It’s a 1X drive so I shouldn’t expect too fast of a drive.

It works! It's REALLY REALLY slow though. In fact, i'm pretty sure it just crashed.
