    Quadra 700 doesn't fully boot with RasterOps card installed

    I just got a RasterOps 24L (ROM 1.1) from eBay, and the seller claimed it as working (removed from a IIvx), and when installed in my Quadra 700 (running 7.5.5) it freezes part way through booting - just after the welcome to macintosh screen. I've tried these things with no luck: • installing...

    Huge kudos to Hap for sorting me out with the Dynamac software - now happily running in its native resolution :D

    Dynamac EL manual?

    Oh! I just came across this photo of your Dynamac, Haplain... http://www.applefool.com/se30/images/img/ua47u0w1.png From that picture it sure looks like yours is running in the full 640 x 400 resolution! :) Which is great news - as long as the hard disk hasn't gone the same way as your...

    Mac II Series vs Quadra 700

    Gotta throw in my vote for the Q700 - I've got an American one and a European one and they're both great - especially with the little stick out feet! It's actually the main Mac I use (besides my Mac mini), to back up everything else to, to store old software on, and I do all my HyperCard...

    Inside a Dynamac EL...

    Just thought I'd share some photos of my disassembly and repair of my Dynamac, for curiosity's sake, although it may be useful to anyone else tackling one of these beasts. These screws attach the PSU, they're the only ones on the bottom of the case that don't need to be removed to open the...

    Dynamac EL manual?

    Just wanted to leave a few photos here of the Dynamac fully working. I'm still very confused as to how to get the screen working in the claimed resolution of 640 x 400 - I can only get 512 x 342. I've done a ROM dump and it seems identical to a Mac Plus ROM, so my guess is that there's some...

    Dynamac EL manual?

    Boo that's a shame. I've managed to get my Dynamac working again, but I'm pretty sure it needs special drivers to get the screen working in 640 x 400... I'll do some more searching but this is some rare software!

    Plus with HDD

    I love all of this! Also, it's reminded me to keep a better eye on auction sites across Europe... ;)

    Dynamac EL manual?

    Great! Are you up for scanning / photographing the pages of the manual and sharing? It would also be brilliant if you wouldn't mind imaging the disks and sharing them too? - my Dynamac came with nothing besides its mouse.

    Dynamac EL manual?

    I've started to disassemble my Dynamac EL (which uses a complete Mac Plus logicboard inside) to restore its PSU, which is currently dead. Whilst I'm working on it I've been wondering if anyone has a clue if there are any user or service manuals in existence? I'd love to get hold of copies or...
