I think the Turbo wasnt a real upgrade, so I doubt its a different pinout. They just did some driver trickery with it. I think that's the right one i'm thinking of.
I agree. I always heard, back in the day when I would send mine in to Apple to get "fixed", that it was only the smaller 17" that suffered from this.
I always wanted that huge 21, though. Nice documentation too.
I'm listening in as this is a interesting topic. Did the secondary CPU have to be "MPe" or multiprocessor enabled, akin to Daystars marketing at the time?
I believe that model would need an LC-PDS video card, which personally I've found to be rare and few and far between. Plus, since most were aimed at 68030-era machines, I imagine they're probably not much faster than the 5200s native video. I might be wrong though, but hopefully someone with...
I know before the 9200 Mac Edition pci came out people were experimenting flashing the 9100 pci. I cant seem to find the cards anywhere, though.
I imagine that you should be able to find a 7200 DDR PCI video card somewhere that should be a standard reference design.
So, I wanted to start playing back through some old Spiderweb games, namely the first of the Avernum games (I mostly played the Exile games back in the day but Avernum's isometric look is nicer). I have Sheepshaver set up with 8.6 on my Mini but I've ran into an odd issue, if anyone wants to...
Oh, I've actually seen those in machines on eBay beforfe. So, they very much existed but I've also heard they had "issues" and had compatibility problems (video cards didnt' work, etc.).
Edit: Stargate Lives!
Edit: I'm not sure where I heard of the compatibility issues. I honestly wonder...
They all generally made some neat machines. Most were just Tanzania clones, but still with neat additions or alterations.
I don't think the memory is interleaved on those, so you do lose some performance . I'm not sure if I'm just parroting misinformation, but I do think the 60MHz bus did...
RAM can fail, yes, but a mandatory test every startup isn't necessary. It doesnt fail at that frequency. Thats like having to wait five minutes every time you start your car while it does diagnostics just because there's a possibility it might have a problem at some point.
The main point...
To be honest, with a SDtoSCSI device, the 475 boots fairly quick. The memory test (at least with maxed ram in mine) is an entire minute of wondering if its testing the ram or simply not booting.
The RAM test is nice but honestly kind of useless after the first time. I don't remember RAM...
