You need to enable 32-bit addressing in the memory control panel.
hey, there ain't no kill like overkill ;-)But, jump straight to yeet the ROM and replace it. Weeeee
Haha.... thats true.hey, there ain't no kill like overkill ;-)
Given that this is an SE/30: I thought that this wasn't an available option on the /30's stock ROM, which is what Connectix Mode32 and replacement ROMs (whether it's a BMOW one or the ROM out of a IIsi) are for.As mentioned before, you could simply enable the 32-bit addressing support and that would work fine
Yea you can enable it. I remember doing so. it just doesnt stick if your PRAM battery is bad.Given that this is an SE/30: I thought that this wasn't an available option on the /30's stock ROM, which is what Connectix Mode32 and replacement ROMs (whether it's a BMOW one or the ROM out of a IIsi) are for.
So, it's not really quite as simple as enabling 32-bit addressing on a machine whose stock ROM did not include that.
To each their own I suppose.Mode32 has always been quite buggy for me (SE/30, 7.5.1). Maybe this had to do with the fact that the wrong version was installed when I got the machine (I haven’t reinstalled the OS, and you’re supposed to do that if you’ve got the wrong version. Also why is that necessary?). Even after the update it kept acting up. Only the modded ROM was able to solve my issues. Plus I got rid of the RAM test and gained HD20 compatibility. I have never experienced any glitches as it still has the SE/30 Gestalt ID.
And it arrived today! Only to show a simasimac-like screen and no startup tone!d'oh! I forgot about the replacement ROM thing. There's a BMOW ROM in the post that has been in transit for about three months, that should fix it.
