Are those the two ROM chips?

What are EEPROMS? And how would I replace?

Flash error

I spent much of my evening messing with this damn thing and nothing changed. I am continuing to get the same Flash error. I did find some mistakes that I resolved including one set of pins was upside down, a couple of pins were bent, and some joints were questionable. But when I connected...

okay. I’ll get pics. I’m gonna take the Rominator out and try to put it ba k the way it was. I suspect I have a bad joint somewhere.

Hmm I’m not sure I follow all of that but I’ll send some pictures and maybe you can help me learn something! :)

hey thanks for the note! I got the kit from Kay Koba. It came with the Roms pre programmed. What kind of pin sockets are on the logic board? Kay said something about not being pin sockets but rather “replaced” sockets. Is that a thing or a typo? It’s whatever was already there. He seemed to...

Hello! I spent this evening assembling my first Rom-inator. I got it to work on my Plus! Well sort of. The assembly went well, but I can't seem to get the Flash Tool to work. It also won't let me boot from an HD20 on my Floppy Emu or from my BlueSCSI (I've added the diode to make it work on...

Hey guys! I picked up a 15" Multiple Scan display today from @treellama The goods news is that the display is beautiful and works nicely with my Performa 6300CD and my Performa 600. The bad news is that I can't get it work work correctly with my trusty LC II. Using another monitor I own, I...

Yeah I was just reading a little in the peripherals section and it does appear that these things need recapping. Ugh. I was hoping for an easy job!! :)

Hey there! I was hoping someone might give me some suggestions. I got my hands on a nice stylewriter II printer. When I tested it, the printer seemed to work but when I would print, there wouldn't be an image that showed up on paper. I replaced the cartridge with a canon ink cartridge which...

Thank you for the tip! I did not recap and only reworked the solder joins on the connectors. But I will definitely investigate those caps and the resistor you circled. What would you recommend I look for? Clear, visible indications of burning/popping?

It came out of a Mac 512k. Do you need the revision?

Hey guys, I need your help. I just received an analog board that didn't work right. While the computer would beep on startup, no display on screen. I reasoned that the connections needed to be reflowed. Great, did that. Went to plug it back in and test my handy work and when I turned the...

Okay so it's not just me? yeah drives me bonkers, I emailed Steve C. to see if he had any alternatives. I assumed I was doing something wrong, but the flat bottoms of the buttons don't sit well on top of the buttons of the actual device.

Have any of you floppy emu owners purchased the acrylic kit? I am having trouble with the shafts of the acrylic buttons sliding off of the buttons on the PCB forcing me to open it up, realign etc only to have it happen all over again. Has anyone else experienced this? Does it sound like I did...

Update: I told SCSIProbe to mount volume on startup and boom, they both mounted, two identical images, one for each BlueSCSI! YAY! (POS)

Okay the plot thickens. I got SCSIProbe to run on my Mac SE and sure enough, it does recognize both drives on the SCSI bus and they have the exact same names, just like you said--Quantum Fireball1. Maybe that's the problem, huh? Now I need to figure out how to change that. Any ideas?
