    Power Macintosh 8500 Display + Sounds Issues

    When you reply to an immediately-preceding post, you will save a lot of forum real-estate if you quote only the relevant portion of its text, or even none of it if you are replying to its overall content. Use of the CUDA switch has been dealt with here. As briefly as possible, it is used after...

    Power Macintosh 8500 Display + Sounds Issues

    It sure do. Be assured, for all future occasions, that the ... ah ... interesting 8500/9500/Quadra 800 case style has a charm of its own. Replacing battery or RAM is an exercise in almost complete demolition, sometimes literally as the models suffered from a strangely rapid embrittlement of...

    OS X support for Spark 2.82

    With the last update of its Spark audio wave editor before the company abandoned software for dedicated audio hardware development, tc|werke indicated that no higher system than OS X 10.3.2 had been tested with Spark, and even then advised routine use of 10.2.8. Seemingly that was extremely...

    IICI dead power supply

    Only you can decide how you will proceed, but I suggest that you factor in your time and learning curve as well as price and convenience when you think about a non-Apple PSU as replacement. Mods and hacks take time, as well as knowledge. The TRKL supply in active power-control Macs is...

    Attention all hands... 68kMLA Rules Update (2009-03-21)

    Locks keep out honest people. Regulations or protocols guide civilized people. However, for this community's sake and the protection of this site's owner it must be clear that whatever-bashing quickly reaches a satiation point. Tom has set the bar on this one. Let's abide by it. de

    SE/30 Daystar adapter issue

    Gary You may have had in mind my statement in another thread I have to disappoint expectations by adding what I did not above: the unsuitably long DayStar IIsi dual adapter (IIci PDS and IIsi PDS), in addition to being a vertical adapter to horizontal cards, has a 68882 socket. The shorter and...

    Upgrade LC475 VRAM from 512k to 1Mb

    If, being of a tidy cast of mind, you used the pair of 100ns, they are too slow for the 475, no matter that the slower LC can use 100ns. You could hazard using the two faster cards, which would allow the the System to treat them both as 80ns, with a very good chance that they would work...

    IICI dead power supply

    'Dead' doesn't give us much room to advise you about an effective response. What kind of dead? Do you get nothing at all from a previously working IIci, or rapid clicking when you hold in the power key on the keyboard or the rear auto-reboot switch? Is the magic smoke gushing or trickling...

    Rescuing Data From Newer Drive

    Bravo! It is what Fowler might have described as a 'vogue word', here deriving from the BigBiz world that ceaselessly seeks to glamourize its tawdry existence, and to give that a significance that it does not have apart from beggaring nations. From BigBiz such metaphors pass to the equally...

    Classic II on Network with Asante SCSI Adapter

    Good to hear that you arrived at your intended destination. My own Classic IIs are full-time members of my LAN, through a newer Desktop EN/SC (fixed SCSI ID=6, and inbuilt SCSI termination) and an older EN/SC (larger, with selectable SCSI ID and dual DB-25 ports). Given that, who needs floppy...

    iMac (I think)

    The conventional interpretation of Bondi iMac is a Rev A or B 233Mhz iMac. That's only 11-odd years ago. Is our (68kmla) race memory fading that fast? de

    9500 CUDA switch

    I'm not sure why you might think that a G4 daughtercard will not work in conjunction with a Kansas MLB if it truly is a Kansas. I put a Kansas MLB from a 9600 into an 8600/300MHz case (with the black space-filling flapdoodle removed from the 8600), but with an XLR8 ZIF G4/400MHz daughter-card...

    IIcx Time Problem

    Silly of me, but I didn't mention another clock-problem-inducer: a screen-saver with its own incorporated clock, as is the case with Møire. Disabling the display by Møire of time in the menu-bar removes another source of possible contention. de

    512K Software

    I'm not quite sure what the essence of your question is. The 512K is a 68000/8MHz monochrome AIO that supports (nominally) System 1.0 to System 6.0.8, but only from a 400kB floppy drive unless it has had ROM surgery or an upgrade to 512Ke. The Mac II is a 68020/16MHz colour-capable modular...

    Weird IE Phishing warning on one topic

    From about the middle of last year onwards, about (at least) half of the system-generated(?) advice-to-the- winner emails that I received (in Mail 2.1.3) from eBay stimulated Growl into giving me a suspected phishing warning. eBay's emails were the only source of such warnings. I usually file...
