That's weird that it wont spin up, but I have actually had this problem before. Does it spin up if you hook it up to a regular ATX PSU? I've seen some PSU's on macs not provide enough power, and I've also seen sometimes that there is a Motor Delay jumper set, or even a motor jumper that needs to...

The adapters quoted are the exact adapters that I use. It seems they have gone up a little bit in price though! They work like a charm, just make sure you have a terminator on the end of your cable since these drives don't do internal termination.

Heck yes, this is exactly the information I needed! Thank you!

So, I recapped my IIci and stuffed it full of cards only to find out that the HDD was dead. My standard method of replacement is a 2.5" IBM Ultra 320 SCSI drive on an adapter, partitioned into small chunks. I booted up the machine, formatted with a Patched Drive Setup and installed System 7.1...

Hey, MLA! Been a really long time since I've been around, but I have a question regarding an SE/30 After a very long send-away to get the board recapped, It finally came back to me. I plugged it in and the SCSI controller wasn't doing its thing, after a few hours of probing the SCSI controller...

Well, Sorry for the very delayed response here y'all. The forum crashed, and then life got in the way, and now apparently the system assigned my post to another user, and the account that I made this post with vanished into thin air. (LXLS) Amazingly, my account from five forum software updates...

JB, The Newton 2100 is coated in that rubbery stuff, NTLK has yet to figure out what that stuff is actually called. I do know however that I have used my 2000 so extensively that lots of that rubbery stuff has come off. The Plastic underneath it is green as well. I'm not sure that vinyl dye...

BOSE: Buy Other Sound Equipment. They honestly look to me like what Bose calls their outdoor speakers these days. I know lots of people are fans of Bose equipment, but I will be honest here and say that I've never enjoyed listening to anything they've ever built. Still, It's pretty cool that...

Thanks for all the links and help! I think that waiting around for a 1360 might be what I do, unless I can find some other card that will give me 1280@24. W/ QuickDraw acceleration. My preferred Display for old macs continues to be a CRT. I don't have any Square LCD Panels any more, and found...

I suppose that is a good point. Since you and Trash80 seem to be the authority on NuBus Video Cards around here, do you think that the IV/GT would be faster than the Lemans or a 24xk? I suppose that for ProTools experimentation, a bit of AutoCAD and some word processing, running 1280x1024 @...

Thanks for the help! Now I know. I would ideally, like to find the 1360 IV GX. that way i could push 1280x1024 @24bit. I feel like $75 might be a bit much for the 1152, I can do 1152 with the 24XK. That and the fact that i'll have to use a second nubus slot in my Q950 for photoshop acceleration...

I used an AEK II for many years with an iMate (which is now falling apart) Then I ran into an AEK I. What a difference! The AEK II is stiff as a board in comparison.

Hey all, I've got the opportunity to purchase a Radius Lemans GT or a Radius Thunder IV/GT (1152) I really can't find much information on the Lemans other than what I can find here on the MLA. If I were to purchase the Thunder, it would come with a PhotoEngine card, but not the daughtercard...

yes, you can absolutely re-write your old diskettes. Disk Copy should automatically ask if you want to format the disk. you can download System 7.5.3 here: http://www.info.apple.com/support/oldersoftwarelist.html#system

very nice! I've always wanted a mini, I think that will be my next iPod when my 1st gen dies. (it's almost there, it definitely needs a new battery) I think if you take out the microdrives and replace them with CF cards you'll get better battery life though! :D

thanks for the good words, comrade's :) I was not aware that the Q605 was advertised with an extended II and the teardrop mouse. I do have those, but for some reason I always just thought that the little adb board and square mouse were what belonged with the mini-pizzabox macs. :p...

I've had this machine for about a month now, just havent gotten around to posting. But, a little while back, I was looking around for an LC III, and a seller on LEMSwap just so happened to have one. (for 35 shipped, I might add!) To my surprise when I opened the box, not only was there an LC III...

I finally found a copy of SoftARC's FirstClass Server. Version 2.4, for a whopping 10 bucks shipped on ebay! First step is to make copies of these diskettes, second step is to set it up! Does anyone know whether the License diskettes will work for a later version of FCS? 2.4 is pretty old, but...

I also feel the same way. My dual 1GHz Quicksilver feels faster than my dual 1.8 g5. The G5 was the worst machine I've ever purchased, and is currently in the kernel-panic-of-death-spiral. :'(

Thanks for the help, guys! I'm going to Upgrade it to OS 9 tonight! If I can't fix the floppy drive, I'll pull the one from the poor 6100 :) Blake.
