@Equill:
I'm in the same boat here, but I have good news! It turns out that you can use the MicroMac Thunder/ThunderCache Control Panel and it'll work perfectly with the Extreme Systems Impact '030. Grab version 1.2.3 here...
By third hand, techknight was referring to the two solder method, not the twizzer-solder/twin-pencils method.
Anyways, I see what you're saying Trag, and yes there might be stress while twisting if done quickly and abruptly, but if there's any stress it's on the pads, not on the motherboard...
@techknight:
That's why I don't recommend it. Even with the specialized "tonsil soldering irons". Add to that the epoxy which is described correctly above (which many high end motherboards use - and is really hard to work against with tonsil type irons) and twist+turn is the best method IMHO...
For future reference/anyone stumbling on this thread who's trying to remove SMD caps, the following is a tested and very successful method (I'd say far superior to any of the above - I've done hundreds of SMD cap replacements and I have tried all the of the above too):
Use a pair of pliers to...
Don't know if Zydeco is checking this thread, but the error is probably due to him linking against a newer library. Console.app says:
Dyld Error Message:

Reason: Incompatible library version...
Very interesting discussion. Another thought for helping remove any doubts about power supply problems is to trace the Turbo 601 and find out where to supply power and get power directly from the PSU (or from an external PSU) right onto the Turbo 601. But... you better know what you're doing if...
That's because it runs some form of Amiga OS! :-) (AFAIK) Mac OS wasn't the only game in town.
And as far as what you can do with it (again, AFAIK): you can run a newer Amiga OS on it, and various software (the kind that don't bang on the hardware directly, aka games) will work with it. So...
Yes, I'm afraid so. Thus the question remains: how did people use the 2nd button (since this was obviously only useful on ADB Macs...) Anyone know? Where there < OS X drivers in the past?
Thanks
Sorry guys, I'm talking about ADB trackballs and MouseWorks says that it can't find a Kensington device :-/ So what gives? Am I not doing something, or is everyone just talking about ADB trackballs?
Hmmm. I see. I thought they were just plug'n'play... But yeah, it's pretty easy to use and nice and big!
As for the Ctrl-click, yeah, I'm aware of that, but wanted to use the right button since it's there.
Thanks guys
I hooked up a Kensington ADB trackball to my G3 Mac and in both OS9 and OSX when I right click on the desktop (the trackball has two buttons), I don't get a contextual menu, but rather it seems like a random (seemingly) item on the desktop (or inside folders) gets highlighted. When I click a...
Just an update for those who might hit a snag in the future:
The SE IV didn't work (was freezing) on a PowerMac 7100 with a Sonnet G3 upgrade card.
However it did work with the 2.1rc2 firmware update. The 2.1rc2 update makes the SE IV SCSI Manager 4.3 compliant, which Sonnet's G3 driver...
