Anyone know where I can get a working copy of 8-bit GEOS for the Apple IIe. I'd be willing to pay someone for a working copy on floppy. If I found the software online, it would be a bear to get it on a floppy myself. Additionally, I'm also looking to get a copy of Apple II Desktop.
My Apple IIe...
So I finally got A/UX 3.0.1 working on my Quadra 700.
One oddity that I cant figure out is, when I follow the instructions to disable auto-login, it doesn't do anything. I've set the root password, created user level accounts, and deleted the autologin file in mac/sys - but still nothing. It...
I bought this drive off eBay to do an a/ux install, but having a weird issue, when I insert a cd caddy it starts to load then a few seconds later immediately spits it right back out. I've tried different cds, caddys.
When I contacted the seller he claims it was working and maybe it's an issue...
I'm having an issue with floppy drives right now, so on my SCSI2SD I want to mimic an Apple HDD that an unpatched HD SC will recognize, but what is the largest one I can do? I just tried " SEAGATE" and "ST225N" but that's only a 20mb drive?
I just wanted to rule-out a more serious issue, but on my Quadra 700 (base 512k VRAM), using my adapter and LCD, I'm getting 640x480, but there is a heavy green tone. Oddly, even if I switch to greyscale, I still have the green tone.
Same adapter/LCD works well on many other Macs, so I'm...
So a weird event happened. I was using my PB 3400 (PATA SSD), then all of sudden, BEEP, it reboots. There was no battery, and it was connected only via wall power adapter. Upon bootup it failed to do anything, it would chime, then thats it, just hum, nothing on screen.
Is it possible that its a...
Anybody have a copy? I used this all the time back in the 2000's on OS 9 machines. Very good SSH client. The company is still around, but sort of re-branded themselves around cloud and vpn solutions. After some googling, I found some university sites referencing it, but all the links are dead. I...
Though this would be straight forward, but I am having difficulty booting a PB 3400c with an external CDROM (Apple 600e). I just get the flashing disk on the screen. This is following replacement of hard drive. Holding C doesn't do anything, neither does CMD-SHFT-OPT-DEL-SCSI_ID. I dont even...
I'm evaluating my HDD options for an 8600, I want something newer that will last, here are the options I have come up with:
SCSI2SD v6
New 80-pin SCA SCSI with an adapter down to 50-pin
SATA to 40-pin PATA adapter + a PCI Card supporting PATA (though not sure if you can boot off that)
I...
I'm debating getting a Quadra 700 in my collection as my main 040 machine, but I already have a Quadra 605 with the upgraded CPU with FPU. Given that, isn't it fair to say that two are about equal in performance? The only difference I can think of is the Quadra 700 can use a Nubus video, where...
So this is a bot odd, but... I have a color Connectix QuickCam that I am trying to use to setup a vintage Mac webcam. I was going to use a Quadra 605 but its not really fast enough for a decent video stream. So I decided to use the PM 8600. Its currently running 8.1, and when I connect the...
I was really hoping to get A/UX installed on my IIci, I have an external Apple CD 300, so I thought I would be good, but my luck, the A/UX install cant find my CD-ROM. Whats the secret? Do I keep trying random CDROMs, maybe an earlier single speed Apple CDROM? I heard there is a specific Toshiba...
The camera isnt much of a find, but the software is what I was really after. Both disks were clean, installed, and everything works. This is for the original Quickcams thats connected to the modem or printer port, and also the ADB port.
I made disk images of them and will post to...
Can someone shed some light on these adapters? The one I have has 6 DIP switches (comp sync 1, comp sync 2, sync on V, sync on H, sep sync, sync on green).
Amazingly, on the non-setting mode (all switches set to off), it worked for my IIfx (SuperMac Series IV video) with a modern 25" LCD...

Will this work in a LC 475?

So, I have a Spectrum Series IV (ROM v3) nubus card in my Mac IIfx, system 7.5.
I downloaded the SuperPower/SuperVideo software, and installed the extension and control panel.
The extension during boot-up shows a red X on it, but the control panel works, and I am able to use the...
Question, can 7.1 properly handle TCP/IP or be installed with Open Transport? I am asking because would it make sense to stay in the 7.1 software branch when on 68030. I want to get decent performance out of my LC II and IIfx, saving OS RAM by running a slim 7.1 sounds like it might be better...
