    Macintosh IIcx slow clock

    I have a Macintosh IIcx and the time on it is very slow. I did put in a brand-new PRAM battery and the problem still persists. If I replace the Saronix 90R Oscillator with a brand new 31.3344 MHz one will that restore the time functionality?

    System 1.0 Fonts

    When I use the System 1.0 disk in my 128K, the font comes up weirdly. It also does this in Mini vMac when I use the 128k version. The odd thing is when I use the Macintosh Plus version of Mini vMac it looks fine. Is there something wrong with the image?

    3.5 Floppy ScanDisk Equivalent

    I have been looking for a program that scans for bad sectors on 3.5 floppy disks like ScanDisk would do in DOS. Ideally, it would work with System 7. Does such a thing exist for Mac? Thanks

    AppleColor High-Resolution RGB Monitor Rev. A (M0401) Cable

    I recently purchased an AppleColor High-Resolution RGB Monitor Rev. A (M0401). However, it did not come with a video cable. Will this cable listed here work for it (part number 590-4161-A)? Will this monitor work with a Quadra 660AV?

    Macintosh Plus non-composite Ram upgrade

    I pulled these ram sticks from my old 486, and they are 1MB sticks. However, I am not sure if these are non-composite ram sticks. They will be going into my Macintosh Plus to upgrade it to 4MB. All I know is that these have Samsung memory chips and are from about 1992/93 (very odd coincidence...

    PowerBook 180c modem software for System 7.1

    I have two PowerBook modems for my 180c; however, I cannot find any software for them. One is a "Supra Fax Modem 144PB," and the other is a PowerPort Gold Model A502". I assume these are after-market modems since the add-on modem in the Fall 1993 Apple Catalogue is called an "Express Modem" and...

    Install Me First CD for Quadra 660AV

    I have a Quadra 660AV that I recently purchased. It has the original CD-ROM since it has a date of December 1993, and it is an AppleCD 300 Plus (the one that uses a tray and not a caddy). I have downloaded and burned the Quadra 660AV "Install Me First" CD, and it will not boot. However, it will...

    PowerBook 165c inverted screen

    I own a PowerBook 165c, which is in great condition (even the screen hinge has never been repaired). It only has one issue, in the middle of the screen, the image appears to be inverted. This makes it very difficult to use to the point where I plug in an external monitor. Is there any known...

    SCSI DB25 (male) to DB25 (male)

    I recently purchased a RaSCSI (the external version with a female DB25 on it) and I am having trouble finding the right cable so I can get this to work with my Macintosh Plus. Many years ago, I purchased a DB25 male to DB25 male to attach two 486 computers through the Parallel port (shown in the...

    Weird Macintosh '512K'

    I recently purchased my first Compact Mac, it has the Macintosh 512k badge on the back; however, when I looked at the serial number, I was very confused. It appears to have been made on the 3rd week of 1984. I decided to open it, and it looks like there was some modification done to the logic...
