Watched it all. Great job it gives me the heads up before i go ahead and try it myself and what tools i may need, I’m still a bit worried as I’ve not done this before but you have to start somewhere and having 30 yr old electronics as a hobby i need to try. I have a rev 1 board from an SE I...

Brilliant just watched it well 1hr 7 so far but its 12 midnight here so was good to see it even if i’m not going to do it just yet :)

Fabulous us novices would be lost without good folks like yourself! I’ve saved it to my home screen for now as I’ll be looking to perform the surgery in 4-5 weeks time (several commitments over the next 3 weekends thanks to the wife). Luckily i paid to have the motherboard done so just the...

Great thank you JDW thats just what i needed. Ive only just ordered a soldering iron so a complete novice. Would you also have a component list with the values to hand as well so i know I’m ordering the right caps and diodes? 

You have a few other compacts, a plus? What do you do with those? Nice idea the scsi in the sc20 case

Wow i like the sound of your setup I would definitely like several os’s as there’s some games I want that won’t work on 7.5.5 that i want. I’ve just brought an analogue board and power supply which I’m looking to re cap soon and change over as I’m getting a bit of screen wobble/flicker so after...

Blimey you have your system setup sweet, I didn’t think you could even run 7.6.1 or 8.1 without accelerators and hacks. i’d like to be able to run multiple OS on mine although only considered 6.06, 7.1 & 7.5.5. how did you install all of those? how do format your hard drives into the...

Yes thats the notes i used. The Hack itself from what I remember was pretty easy just changing something like 05 to 08 In a few res edit files. never heard of Wish i were? I have no idea what it does! So do you have 8.1 on at SE/30? 

It may have had the flashing disc come to think of it. I can’t quite remember 

It was a while back, from what i recall just blank grey screen 

Ah sorry I probably wasn’t very clear because i put it in, took it out etc.. yes i went back to the standard Rom with mode32 as it worked. I had tried the hack with 7.5.5 and couldn’t get it to work unless it was using just the rominator with 7.1 and the internal 8mb on the rom simm but it...

No mode32 is for 24bit dirty rom, rominator is 32bit clean. yes you need to res edit system code but the process means it needs to be done on 7.5.1 i think then add the 7.5.3 and 7.5.5. There’s instructions on the rominator site. For me i have my se/30 setup nicely with a bunch of software and...

I couldn’t get the rominator II to work on my SE/30 using macos7.5.5 without doing a major os wipe as it needs downgrading, some systems changes before upgrading it back again to 7.5.5 which i couldn’t be bothered to reinstall all my configuration and software so i took it out will try again at...

Ah all makes sense now thx dog cow

The early lc’s did have a blanking plate didn’t they like the se so could easily add a floppy i did a hdd fill that space?

I thought early LCs had duel floppy's so could you not buy an old lc case so you  don’t  have to dangle floppy out the side? Nice mode though

Potato could you not make it in sections; glue, sand then spray to match? 

Thats epic, great job guys :)

Jonny,  new rubber feet for compact macs as your 3d prints out of rubber

All i can tell you traildog is that I'd been trying to do something similar for a few years now unsuccessfully and even moving to networking via network card i haven’t really managed it. Even getting my imac g3 running 10.3.9 to share with my SE/30 on 7.5.5 Didn’t work let alone my mac mini. I...
