    IIfx C1 Capacitor - Does it always blow?

    Good to know. My board was recapped before I bought it. Haven’t had any issues with it in the 8+ years of ownership minus swapping the power supply

    IIfx C1 Capacitor - Does it always blow?

    Is C1 still prone to explosion even after recapping the entire board?

    OrangePC Card on IIfx

    Tried different video drivers. The only other one that works reliably is VGA (Version 3.0). Still doesn’t fix the freezing issue I have when I open Windows using File-Run in DOS.

    OrangePC Card on IIfx

    I checked the C:\DOS directory - I have mouse.com enabled and I’m currently running Version 8.20 of the Microsoft Mouse driver. Perhaps there’s a bug somewhere in DOS 6.1 where the mouse cursor likes to randomly disappear or there’s some compatibility issue between DOS and the OrangePC card or...

    OrangePC Card on IIfx

    Will have to double-check. I have Microsoft Mouse and Logitech drivers installed on the Windows side. Will do. It's just odd that Windows started hanging after I installed my Sound Blaster drivers for the AWE64. It's fine if I use Command Prompt and type in "Win" at C:\> Color Palette is...

    OrangePC Card on IIfx

    I connected a pair of Labtec Spin-75 speakers to the AWE64’s speaker out port. Sound works perfectly - I can hear the Win 3.1 “Tada” chime on startup and I can play with various musical instruments in the MIDI control panel. Things that still need fixing: (1) I need to find the optional PC card...

    OrangePC Card on IIfx

    It is (and that's without the fancy PC board bracket). I even had to remove the big plastic cover support in order for the IIfx lid to close and not make contact with the Sound Blaster card. I was hoping the OrangePC card would have had sound integrated, sort of like the DOS card for the 6100...

    OrangePC Card on IIfx

    My AWE64 Sound Blaster card arrived yesterday. I was able to download some Win 3.1 drivers directly from Creative Labs. As the pics show, the card is detected by DOS 6.1 - only problem is I can't hear anything. Do I need to connect an internal speaker directly to the Sound Blaster card or run a...

    OrangePC Card on IIfx

    Bought a Sound Blaster AWE64 (CT4500) "value" card from eBay. It's just the card - no drivers or accessories - but Creative Labs still has drivers on their website so I should be OK. Will be interesting to mount to the OrangePC card without a bracket. If all else fails, I can just use it with my...

    All about Apple PC 5.25" Drive (A9M0110)

    Did you plug in the 5.25" directly to the back of the OrangePC card?

    OrangePC Card on IIfx

    I'm thinking more along the lines of Apple's DOS compatibility card for the 6100. I'm guessing it does. The 386 manual is a little vague. Well I could always run the IIfx with the cover off (yeah, right). Thus far everything seems to be working fine. I had no issues installing DOS 6.1 and...

    OrangePC Card on IIfx

    I know. I'm just trying to get sound - any sound - to work with the card. The 386 manual made reference to PC Speaker but I can't enable it due to differences in the menu listings. Thanks. It's definitely interesting. I haven't plugged in anything directly to the card. I doubt I have a Sound...

    OrangePC Card on IIfx

    Fixed the mouse error. Went into Setup and changed the driver to Microsoft Mouse. Tried installing Sound Blaster 16 from my Apple DOS install disk to fix the sound issue. Driver doesn't work - I guess Sound Blaster isn't supported with OrangePC cards? The 386 manual states on Page 46 that PC...

    OrangePC Card on IIfx

    My OrangePC card arrived today in the mail. The card itself is in perfect working order (pics to come soon). The only significant problem I'm having at the moment is getting the OrangePC mouse driver to work in Windows 3.1 (the driver is fine in DOS 6.1 and I can toggle between Mac or PC mouse...

    M2115 Drive Window Opens Off-Screen on IIfx

    I think it went well past the edge into another dimension. Couldn't get to it at all with the mouse. Even File Command-Open was useless. Maybe.

    M2115 Drive Window Opens Off-Screen on IIfx

    This fixed it. Thanks. I think that's what caused the problem in the first place. I had the M2115 drive connected to my B&W G3 with the 22" Apple Cinema Display set to 1600x1200 and that somehow made all of the windows bigger on the poor 640x480 13" Mac monitor.

    M2115 Drive Window Opens Off-Screen on IIfx

    When I click on the icon for my M2115 drive on the IIfx's desktop, its window opens off-screen. Any thoughts on how to get the window to not open off-screen? Running System 7.1 - 8.24GC Card 13" Macintosh Color Display

    Apple ADC Monitor to Macintosh II?

    The Gefen was advertised as working. Obviously it isn't. Why should I hold onto something that doesn't do the job as intended and poses a potential fire hazard?

    Apple ADC Monitor to Macintosh II?

    Just turned on my B&W (it has a G4 PCI board). The ADC monitor lives. I guess leaving it unplugged for a few hours cured whatever ailed it. Let's see how long this lasts. I have one of those adapter cables (forgot the brand - probably Belkin) but it's ADC to DVI. It poses the same problem as...

    Apple ADC Monitor to Macintosh II?

    Two weeks ago, I decided to take the plunge and purchase a NIB Gefen DVI-to-VGA adapter on eBay. It arrived today, and of course, I've got problems. Firstly, my ADC monitor remained blank, even after the IIfx completed its RAM test (and this was with the 8.24GC Card). Adjusting the Gefen's EDID...
