This is so amazing! 8D When will these be available? Ive been dying to get grayscale in my se30 to complete it!

Just a little friendly safety reminder that the pots on the analog board should be adjusted with a PLASTIC screwdriver/tool Only , especially the variable resistor DO NOT USE A METAL SCREWDRIVER! You could get a serious shock! Unless you want to end up on the next episode of electroboom! ;P...

sadly I missed out on the other amazing cards you made but i really hope I can get one of these! =)

it wasn't very exciting lol I tried to clean up the burn mark its pretty deep! but the rest of the case cleaned up like a mirror I can really see the signatures now, I guess I added a signature of my own in the mold now lol ! I managed to file off most of the charred corner of the radius...

I suppose you're right, I never noticed and never heard anything mentioned about the inside of the case being completely coated with metal I guess as an emi shield, I tested the resistance of the case is like 002 ohms so ya its pretty conductive, it just looked like some pretty high current that...

I thought I could finally put the case back on my se30 I thought I finally had it fixed and completed, I had recently replaced the old cracked and arcing flyback transformer and got all 128mb of ram. Even with the case on the external screen never went grayscale I thought replacing the...

I will also order the other set of 64mb (16mbx4) ram sticks to finally max this se30 out to 128mb of ram soon! =)

I spent the money and got a NOS replacement flyback transformer to replace my good ol sparky stock one, model 157-0042C was replaced with a 157-0026C. After some extensive testing no sparks or arcs I could see and no smell of smoke or anything so I put the case back on and so far there has been...

Just thought I would finally update this post after all these years! Finally made some more progress on my good ol se30. I came across a asante maccon ethernet se30 model with the removable AUI daughter-board to fit a monitor port and decided to modify the radius pivot card for the iisi with a...

Just use the screw extractor bits is probably the best way I could think of

As far as I understood those radius boards there was no cable for that bus port but instead a secondary card that is supposed to go on that slot like these photos of a board I saw on ebay. I'm not sure of their compatibility tho. This is just a 2 page display board that also does not have the...

i Think this is the bin file I downloaded for my SE/30 maccon I think it also includes drivers for other versions as well.?maybe? I recommend reading the readme file it suggested disabling my extensions for installation by holding shift while booting and also after installing I had to shut the...

This same thing is happening to my flyback transformer and i would hate to waste money on another analog board with another old burnt out flyback that might even be worse off than the one i have! I would love to find or afford a NOS flyback or one day hopefully people will make a replacement...

I may have found some what of a clue to what the culprit might be to this odd problem. Or maybe not but this still needs to be addressed. While I had my se case off it was sitting in a place on my desk that was rather dark I noticed the tiniest arcing/spark on the flyback transformer, this...

I've got a very crazy weird issue that is intermittent and kind of hard to explain so I'll try to word it as best I can. I have never been able to figure this out in all these years. I have a good ol se30 that I recapped many years ago and fully recapped the analog and power supply the voltages...
