I realise this is very much a one off, but if you can make another I’d be keen to purchase - Australian here keen to learn more about my ANS

I’d look out for a second ImageWriter locally - they are not particularly hard to find nor expensive.

Check PSU voltages first

It's the OS, there is a specific driver for the AppleVision CRT which is assigned to the Monitors & Sound Control panel probably Mac OS 8 and up. This link refers to a standalone application you can install, haven't tried as is on the OS install CD normally...

I think the project was AI theoretically based with not much substance … that might explain the 404

There are plenty of options for modern hard drive replacements, what about a Blue or Zulu SCSI, install a high quality SD card and you're away.

The Formac card is a Permedia III-based chipset, it is excellent for 2D but very early 3D - was released late in the cycle as a cheaper dual monitor card for a Mac. Compared to your ATI Rage Pro, it may be faster for 2D with higher resolutions and quality but definitely not 3D, with drivers...

It doesn't look in the wrong position in the pic ... I'm sure you can find another part.

Got it! Manual here - branded as ATEN here: https://assets.aten.com/product/manual/un_161.pdf And Mac, Windows drivers here (hopefully not in Italian language): https://www.aten.com/it/it/products/soluzioni-usb/dock-e-switch/un161/

This link, says the brand is ハイパーツールズ or "Hypertools", there might be an Archive.org website for it somewhere. Keep in mind it's USB 1.1 speeds only and competed with RS232C cables as a "fast" solution but you will be there all day transferring files using it...

Check the Commslot for any pin damage/debris/clean it You can put a Mac compatible PCI network card in the 6360 is only single slot but some have added two cards with the right PCI riser.

Yeah, no matter how hard you try to remove corrosion/cap goo from, it can always bite back or degrade long term

Cool, hope to try it soon - the nasty laugh from Enchanted Scepters needs to be heard :D

That's good it shows some life, the SE are the cockroaches of compact Macs and usually reliable, yours might have a bad caps in the PSU or analogue board. Silly question but have to ask - you have the monitor brightness all the way up? You can test the PSU voltages from the floppy port - see...

Best place to prove the voltages on an MDD would be on the PSU connector itself; the unit gets hot wide open so maybe point a fan at the internals while doing tests. Check the +25V ADC voltage with the ADC monitor connected especially under heavy load. Pinout is here (random link double check...
