I have been following this thread with great interest as I have a Radius PrecisionColor 8-Xj video card with dead ROM that appears to be similar to the ROM on @ipv7net 's SuperMac card. @omidimo ... if you get your programmer working, I greatly appreciate you taking a pass at burning a...

Makes sense. If I were a judge at the InterWebs Olympics, I'd give that article a 10.  It is one of the best infonuggets I have come across.

Here is the link to the board that needed to be added to the SeaSonic PS to get softpower: 

That guide helped me get the Lubuntu VM set up such that every OS that I have running can now share files.  THx so much for pulling it together!   I took notes as I was setting it up and these 2 links helped me get SAMBA set up so that it was accessible Windows/DOS/BeOS/OSX: SAMBA info for Win...

Interesting thread. I have the SeaSonic PS in one of my SE/30s and a SeaSonic in my IIci. To get the softpower to work, I had to follow the lead of @superjer2000 in a post in this forum that I can't find. It is a small board that got the softpower working fine in the IIci with the SeaSonic PS. ...

I am interested to see if this works. I'd give this a try however my IIsi board is dead at the moment );

When I had my Xceed w/ grayscale hooked up to the external monitor the SE/30's did drop our 256 gray but was still functional as @Bolle mentioned. I could position the external monitor above, below, left, or right of the SE/30's and then move the menu bar at the top of the SE/30 to the external...

So in fiddling around with this this AM, the G4 now sees the server but the G3 does not. Both AppleShare and TCIP Control Panels have ethernet selected and AppleShare appears Active in Chooser on both machines.  

Hi All, I have a Power Mac G4 QuickSilver and G3 Wallstreet laptop that both run 9.2.2 and 10.2.8. On my home network I have a Lubuntu VM that runs AppleShare via Netatalk that all of my 7.5.5, 7.1.1, 6.0.8 machines can see/access just fine.  When I attempt to connect either the G4 or G3...

I have the same Xceed setup and run it successfully with a NEC multisync adapter that has no dip switches.  I have a generic 17" LCD from ENvision.  This same adapter works on my IIsi and IIci without issue and multiple resolutions.

THx for this @superjer2000 2 Qs for you: 1.   Do you happen to know how much air the stock IIci fan pushed? 2.  Do you recall if you got the 1800 or 1200 RPM version? Here is the spec sheets for the 2 that are $10US from AMZN: THx!

HI All, I went to button up the replacement SeaSonic PSU in my IIci chassis thinking I still had a working fan but it is nearly dead.  When I fire up the machine with the PSU lid open I can see the fan trying to move but it never started spinning.  If I give it a bit of a flick it starts to...

Here is how I share files from my vintage macs to with every other OS running in the house:

JDW, I don't have any suggestions however I do feel that I too am an active member of the E.B. club when I roasted my newly-recapped IIsi board.  I was in such a state of shock that I posted my blunder in the wrong forum...While I do feel your pain, the sun did rise the day after my mistake. The...

I'm about 5 minutes in however I need some sleep and will catch the rest tomorrow.  Looks great so far!

I don't know how to fix, however, I have a replacement if you can't.  I discussed it here:

I googled the visible part number and got no hits so a donor board it is... Mods, could you please move this to the Mac II forum...thx

It is with great shame and embarrassment that I submit this post.  I was working to get my 2nd soft power transistor build and when I went to test, I forgot that the power supply was still plugged into the IIsi motherboard. When I flipped the power strip on there was a pop and then that smell...

Success! While the above is not pretty, it finally worked.  The layout is the same except that the transistor's pins did a 180.  When I jump PR +5V_SB to the far side of the 10K attached to the center pin, the hard drive connected to the PS fired right up. I will try to get soldered up and...

Appreciate the offer @superjer2000 but I planned for 2 of these so I will give it another go with my remaining parts. I too assumed that the pins were standard and I built mine exactly like you did.  I Googled the part number and there are images that show some with the pins reversed.  I also...
