I did a fresh install of Mac OS 7.5.5 and checked all network related packages in the installer. Now i opened MacTCP but I can’t enter any IP address containing more than two numbers per group. It doesn’t seem to support DHCP. I want to assign the IP address 192.168.178.230, but it always cuts...

C920 is leaking too

No I haven‘t yet. Will try this. Because I like the new platinum UI design more and I had an original Mac OS 8 install CD laying around. Does 7.6.1 perform a lot better? I can try to connect the SE30 with my Kanga G3 if Robin‘s approach does not work.

Hello together, I have an issue getting network on my SE30 with Mac OS 8.1. It has the Asanté MacCon SE30E network card in it with driver version 5.6.1 installed. I connected it to my router using an AUI to RJ45 10BASE-T transceiver (Allied Telesyn AT-210TS). The link LED turns on but there’s...

I ended up creating two 2 GB partitions and successfully installed Mac OS 8.1 on one of it. Will install 7.5.5 on the second one next weekend to have dual boot. I think this is a good approach.

Thank you, i will go for two partitions á 2 GB then. What to select for the second partition in HD SC then? Scratch or Additional Mac partition?

Okay, that makes sense. So the only way to use 4 GB partition size is to insert the stock ROM, install Mac OS 7.5, then install the ROM-inator II and perform the necessary changes in ResEdit? If I boot from the 7.5 floppy with ROM-inator II installed it freezes at the “Welcome” screen. It’s a...

But why it works on my Classic II with 7.6 then?

The RAM arrived and I upgraded it today. Additionally I put in a new HDD with 4 GB and a ROM-Inator II in order to be able to address the entire RAM without MODE32. But I’m not able to install Mac OS 7.5.3. Even though it should support up to 4 GB partition size, the installation does not work...

Thank you very much. I ordered this modules now.

I’m looking for upgrading my SE30 from 4 to 32 MB of RAM. But I’m uncertain which type of RAM i need. There seem to be to types of 30pin SIMM modules: FPM and EDO. I found this modules, will they work? https://ebay.us/m/u2GWpM Does the SE30 support parity?

Thank you very much!!!

May somebody share me the capacitor values for C104, C106 and C107? Thank you :)

BlueSCSI is a cool thing but very expensive when shipped to Germany (about $80) and it’s not the same ambiance as it is with a rattling hard drive. But maybe it is worth the $80 as it enables you to mount floppy images using a web interface which is very convenient.

It’s a Quantum ProDrive ELS. As it’s impossible to remove the platter I won’t attempt any further repair and look for a larger replacement drive.
