Hello, Anyone know about this item: https://www.ebay.com/itm/325059566458 Description: This was a working pull of a Power R video adapter. Unusual and rare item. It plugs into the logic board power supply connector and plug your power supply cable into it. The video cable that comes with...

Hi all... I fired up my IIci after it had been sitting for a few months with some sporadic video issues.  I reseated the cable that goes through 2 KVMs to my Sun LCD monitor and it fired up and worked fine for about 10 minutes and then failed to this patterns: I rebooted the machine and it...

So I was at the local thrift store and I saw a nice looking Sun 20.1 LCD monitor sitting there for $9.99.  I didn't know if this LCD support sync on green so I asked if they'd hold it for me until close.  I came back with with my IIsi in a duffle with the needed cable. It fired right up and...

HI All, I won an auction for a IIfx earlier this year and I have these threads going on its motherboard & PS which have now taken back seat to its case. The auction (which I was not expecting to win) pictures only hinted at its internal mess: I removed the internal tins and they were a...

Hi All, The IIfx is in queue and I am trying to find out if my power supply is putting out proper voltage.  I have one board that will start the PS and when I test it I get: 5 Reds: 5.13 1 Yellow: 12.14 1 Blue: -12.11 1 White: 4.23 Is anything off here?   THx!

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times... Years ago I got this board for the IIfx ROM in one of my SE/30's. It was only the board and I didn't know if it worked. I'll refer to this as Board 1.  I wanted get this running so I bought a complete non-working IIfx earlier this...

Hi All, Has anyone tried to 3D print feet for your IIci?  When I got mine it had none and they appear to be hard to find...  This seller sold his/her last set...

Hi All, I have a Power Mac G4 QuickSilver and G3 Wallstreet laptop that both run 9.2.2 and 10.2.8. On my home network I have a Lubuntu VM that runs AppleShare via Netatalk that all of my 7.5.5, 7.1.1, 6.0.8 machines can see/access just fine.  When I attempt to connect either the G4 or G3...

HI All, I went to button up the replacement SeaSonic PSU in my IIci chassis thinking I still had a working fan but it is nearly dead.  When I fire up the machine with the PSU lid open I can see the fan trying to move but it never started spinning.  If I give it a bit of a flick it starts to...

It is with great shame and embarrassment that I submit this post.  I was working to get my 2nd soft power transistor build and when I went to test, I forgot that the power supply was still plugged into the IIsi motherboard. When I flipped the power strip on there was a pop and then that smell...

Hi All, I have an Asante NuBus card discussed here that does not play nicely with the 2 D Link 10/100 hubs that I have.  These hubs work fine with my Asante IIsi/SE/30 cards. To get the Nubus card recognized I need to short the pins on the card after boot sequence has started. The Nubus card...

Hi All, Long ago when I was seeking a 32-bit clean ROM for one of my SE/30's I grabbed an entire IIfx board with ROM attached.  This board has sat in storage and now that I have some skills with the SeaSonic PS, I was thinking of trying to get the board running on the bench sans its case that I...

So I recently won an "untested" IIci and it arrived yesterday.  I knew there was a good chance untested meant it would not start up and that happened. The reason I went for this one was that from the photos the board looked in OK shape.  What I could not see from the photos whether the PRAM...

The first Mac that I purchased was this iMac 4,1 which recently had its drive die.  Today I got that drive out and soon it will be replaced by an OWC SSD:

I saw this in the Ebay Finds thread: And yes, that is a very cool feature.  My first Asante card did not have this so here is the MacGruber I needed to do to run the Asante with a video card: I made the back plane out of an old PC case sheet metal with some Dremel work. The card is rotated...

Hi All, I had Ebay seller AllMacs recap both my IIsi board and one of my SE/30 boards. I have bee using the board in the WtM configuration for a few days without issue.  Prior to the recap I got this scary image on screen and decided it was time to get on with the recap... Here is a shot of...

Hi All, Over the holiday weekend I was able to pull out my IIsi motherboard and of my SE/30s to be recapped.  Both need their power supplies addressed. The IIsi is pretty maxed out in terms of what I run it it so I am interested to see if an ATX has been hacked into the IIsi.  I have seen ATX...
