    Vulcan issue

    I had a Vulcan card using a CF adapter stop working. I first tried a known working CF with no luck then I swapped CF adapters with another Vulcan. Turns out that the adapter wasn’t functioning. Put in my spare but it didn’t work either. It’s a duplicate of the first bad one. So I decided to...

    Using Magneto Optical drives on vintage 68k Macs

    I believe he meant you can use 128mb disks in 230mb drives,  230mb disks in 640mb drives and so forth.

    Best way to test 15+ PowerPC G3 and G4 Ziff processors

    While I can’t guarantee it, I think it’s extremely unlikely that you’d damage the G3. I was thinking about the fact that I’d never tried a G4 in a Beige G3. The beige G3 is handy, the Yikes G4 is handy, lets give it a try. Did it and the Beige “G4” booted up. System profiler recognizes that...

    Best way to test 15+ PowerPC G3 and G4 Ziff processors

    I haven't tried a G4 ZIF in a Beige G3 but I am using a 350mhz one from a B&W, slightly overclocked to 366mhz. I've read lots of postings from people using a G4 from a Yikes in their beige G3 but I haven't had a spare CPU and I haven't wanted to bother pulling one out of a Yikes just to try...

    IIgs memory expansion board HELP! 670-0025

    One other possible factor is that the worst memory card for the IIgs is the Apple one. They're readily available and probably cost more to fix than replacing. A dying IIgs memory card is often viewed as a good opportunity to upgrade.

    128mb DIMM's in a 5500?

    I think that’s a misprint. The link at the bottom of the Gazelle section takes you to another part of their site where they say 128mb. The only way I know to get more than 128mb on a 5500 is to fill in the empty RAM area on the bottom of the motherboard. That’ll take you to 136mb total.

    Molar Mac SSD issues

    I’ll agree with the incompatibility idea. About 3 years ago I tried an Intel ssd with a PPC Mac. The install went fine but after a couple of boots it seemed to lose it’s formatting. Reformatted and did another install and on the second boot, the same thing happened. I installed it in an Intel...

    128k ram card

    Most likely it's a Saturn 128k card. You can check online to see if pictures of it match your card. The manual and software for the Saturn cards are available online

    Mac Mini G4 & 110W PSU

    I got a little curious and got out my watt meter. With a 2009 Mac Mini and a 110 watt power supply I watched while the Mini booted. It was mostly a lot lower but there were some peaks at 40 watts. While running it varied from 14 to 30 watts  depending on what I was doing. I thought that maybe...
