I looking to buy a dos card but unsure if it will work with my quadra 610. Apple DOS Compatibility card for Power Macintosh 6100 will this work with my setup ?? thanks,

an apple 12x cdrom and a caddy arrived today untested.   in 7.5.3 it shows nothing but boots a mac os8 install cd every time,   with a little googling I format a mac 1.4mb fdd , open it on my pc with HFVExplorer and binary copy stuffit and the apple cdom drivers. install on the mac and hey...

just to keep you informed and thanks for all the help. the mac boots every time now with a 256k Vram installed, works great, because im not using a genuine apple monitor I cant force it into 512x384 so im stuck in 640x480 and B&W or few colours for most games (looks on evilbay for a 512k...

quick question , even though i was told it booted ok, every picture I see online has a vram simm installed. the slot in mine is empty, does this mean 256k on board and another 256k would upgrade to 512k or is it at 0kb and the vram simm is missing ?? if it does indeed have 256k onboard do I...

Thanks for the replies. the LCII I'm told (who I bought it from and trusted seller) booted the Mac ok to a desktop before shipping. every time i alter the PNP dips the frequency does alter, mostly the monitor says 640x480@60 sometimes @67, on the crt (no osd as its very old)the picture just...

Hi, done a quick search and couldn't see my exact issue I was pointed here by a member from Amibay.   I'm new to older macs and thought I would try one,  its an Apple Macintosh LCII (M1700) Motorola 68030 CPU @ 16MHz. 12 MB of RAM, 4MB onboard + 2x 4MB 30-pin SIMM's (maximum limit). 80MB...
