This looks like just what I'm looking for! Great find!

I have acquired a Sonnet accelerator with an 030, I've found a couple pages that refer to this as an Allegro, which is a name the also used on some USB cards later on, but I haven't found software to enable it yet. Does any one have a link? All I have found are presto plus drivers. Thanks!

WELL DONE.  thats great dedication and a great result!

That would be great!

Bolle, glad the board finally made it out of customs and am impressed you're getting to work on it right away. I appreciate the updates and the soldering tips. bibilit, yes, this was indeed my first soldering job. Thank you for clarifying, I thought you were being just being rude. I'm getting...

Sources (cause it's always nice to collect info in one place):  https://www.mail-archive.com/search?l=compact.macs@mail.maclaunch.com&q=subject:"Daystar+Value+040+card+compatibility+with+Color+Classic\%3F"&o=newest&f=1

I recently got (what I believe to be) a Daystar Value 040 PDS accelerator card. The seller said it functioned in an LC, and from what I can glean from the forum here, it should be compatible with the color classic.  It didn't fit well due to the color classic clock battery being in the way, so...

First I've found this thread! What a great collection!

Yes, I did! It's a very good question. The powerbook is sitting on the shelf for awhile, until I get the gumption to go take it apart again.

I have a PowerBook 2400c that worked. And then, I took it apart to replace the hard drive (which was starting to fail), and while it was apart I thought I'd clip the jumper wires (per here and elsewhere) to allow me to have Cardbus support. And somehow, something happened in that process that...

Sure, I'm not quite sure what you meant by 'up', so here's the 2 VRAM simms, and then installed.

Incredible! Nice find!

I missed this response somehow. Yes, it is "usable" in that it does boot, but it's really hard to see any thing. ;-)

Just an update to this thread. I purchased some new VRAM from memoryx.com, but the symptoms persist.  (I should note, the lines are visible on screen before booting goes anywhere, on the happy mac, 'welcome to macintosh' etc. ) I recapped the board, just in case, if nothing else to practice...

This is exactly what i'm trying to find out, thank you. Places like everymac mention it's compatible, but I haven't discovered from any one who knows for sure.

I've never heard of Mercari before, do you use google translate, or speak japanese? I've known people that some US-based shippers with yahoo auctions japan, but this is new to me.

Does any one know if the 580 is compatible with the 600-series TV/video system?  It seems it's based on the 600 series board, but I can't find out definitively either way if it works with the TV. 

No particular reason, other than it'd be interesting and fun. No different from, say, a sega tower of power, or installing any upgrade in a old Mac.

The only name I've come across so far is the "iRez Capsure" card, which does not have a tuner included but sounds like it would work for what I have in mind.  The name rings something of a bell, I think iRez also had some webcams at the time.

That seems to be the trouble!
