I recommend 7.5.3-7.6.1 for an LC III, but if you're willing to do some ResEdit hacking, you can get 8.0 and 8.1 onto it, as I've done on my LC III. If you do that, it's worth overclocking the LC III to 33MHz, which is done by moving a 0-ohm resistor on the board. You can look up how to do both

I don't think so, have you tried formatting the disk on a different machine?

you just need a hot air station, some tweezers, and some solder balls

I am

I did the same thing to get 8.1 onto my LC III

try installing a later version of office

that is where resedit trickery comes in, my guy. There's an article on how to get Mac OS 8.1 to run on 68030 Macs, even back to the Macintosh iix

is there also a BOM or is everything taken off the old keyboard?

Alrighty, here’s the photo of the controller for my spare AppleDesign keyboard. Hope it helps!

I wish I had seen this before trashing my dead AppleDesign Keyboard months ago. Luckily, a friend pulled two AppleDesign Keyboards out of the dump for me. While I get a photo of the controller on the spare, I have one request. Can you make the keyboards with Cherry MX Blue switches? I love...

then try recapping your analog board, it might not be able to handle the current of the accelerator if it hasn't been recapped

check the RAM and see if the power supply is supplying the proper 5V and 12V, you can get access to both to probe through the floppy port

has it been recapped? this could be caused by faulty capacitors

yes I am, maybe you forgot a step or mistyped a value in resedit?

I did those same things but installed 8.1 from scratch using a guide online, maybe you forgot to change something per a guide?

oh yeah, CD Sunrise works wonders, I use it with my LC III because I have a non-Apple SCSI CD drive I bought that I've been experimenting with. There is also a version of the AppleCD driver that can be used with any drive, which I think shipped with 7.6.1

Honestly 8.1 on my LC III overclocked to 33MHz runs like a 25MHz 040, it's still good though

they should, all hard drives required the big molex connectors, and you can buy molex to mini molex (referred to as Berg) adapters

you can only install SCSI solutions in the 520-575, but with the 580, it is possible because it uses IDE and you can either buy an IDE SSD or an IDE to SATA adapter

iirc the SE/30 was based off of the iix, so it should be close
