    ATI Radeon 9250 PCI cards, converting from 64-bit to 128-bit and other details

    Yep, but using any PCI Card to drive the second display from the MDD'03, hopefully over DVI, in 1200x1920 portrait mode. ATM the main display is a 1440p screen driven at 2048x1152 over VGA. If I need to run the card you've prepped over VGA as well, my 4 Computer/Twin Display USB-3 KVM switch...

    ATI Radeon 9250 PCI cards, converting from 64-bit to 128-bit and other details

    That's what I'd thought, but surprised it might be possible to be done. How much is it better than the 9250 cards and was there ever any Mac support at all? Wicked cool heatsink though! Took it off to install on somethingorother, pretty sure it never was and is running about somewhere loose in...

    ATI Radeon 9250 PCI cards, converting from 64-bit to 128-bit and other details

    Never reported over here on the card you sent me. Gave up on running the 1440p Display from the DVI port. Hadn't been able to get more than 1080p from there and out thru the KVM switch so I gave up and hooked up a VGA Cable. Gotta switch the display to VGA manually, PITA that. But VGA is...

    ATI Radeon 9250 PCI cards, converting from 64-bit to 128-bit and other details

    SWEET! Thanks much, time to get to the PO. ;) Found one of the VisionTek Cards and splitter cableI snagged on the cheap in the backwhen while looking for something else. Never got it running, so I guess I've got the heat sink somewhere around here too along with the other card/cable. The...

    Quadra 605/LC475: "EViL RAS LINE HACK" revisited . . .

    Yep, that was my bad, but I think the Mac/PC developments discussion we got into and memory capacity/pricing info from the day might be worth a look for anyone picking up on this resurfaced thread? My ability to put thoughts on technical matters into words has improved a bit over the years or...

    MDD'03 reports 1.99GB of Built-in Memory under OS9?

    Yep, strange thing is that when I was getting the memory error on startup with 2GB on board it always showed up as 1.5GB Built-in Memory. I'm leaving the fourth stick out of the equation. ;) edit: does it matter which slots I populate? Shouldn't I'd think.

    Mac SE with Radius Accelerator and Page Two Display wont boot.

    Might find a bit of help here, you'll need to break the BNC connection wire out to R, G and B input lines on the display to get a white background. https://68kmla.org/bb/threads/radius-tpd-se-up-and-running-on-an-lcd-no-less.33403/ The banding on the displays is eliminated nicely by running...

    MDD'03 reports 1.99GB of Built-in Memory under OS9?

    Beat me to it. Thanks. Seems to be behaving like unclean Macs running without MODE32 addressing memory over 8MB. But 1.99GB? That's just strange. Sure would be nice to have an OS9 extension like MODE32 for that extra half gig. ;)

    MDD'03 reports 1.99GB of Built-in Memory under OS9?

    While I was trying to get drivers installed for the new VidCard, I started to play with RAM sticks to try to pinpoint the system memory check error that cropped up on every boot. First thing I tried was pulling the stick from J20 and the error went away! Still reported 1.5MB available as it had...

    Zip Utility Disk build: Utilities intended to run booting under Optical Installer Media - Suggestions?

    Zip Utility Disk build: Utilities intended to run booting under Optical Installer Media - Suggestions?

    Stripped all the HDDs out of the MDD'03, got it booting from OS9Lives Installer and hit another dead end. :rolleyes: For now anyway: Drive Setup says my 128MB mSATA SSDs are unsupported 1) Tried one with SATA adapter on new PATA/SATA card, not surprised it didn't work out of the gate 2) Tried...

    Radius 81/100: yet another battery acid victim

    Found out the battery in my Radius 81/110 leaked at some point in the last couple of years. Doesn't appear to have exploded, though I can't get to it for another year or so, in week nine of rotator cuff surgery recovery and that thing is well and truly buried. Not too worried about the...

    Definition of battery bombed?

    Yikes, looks like Dresden after the RAF worked it over in WWII! I wonder if I have any of that brand in one of my machines? I've mostly pulled 'em all and use "new" blue ones from what's probably too long ago to trust. Found out the battery in my Radius 81/110 leaked at some point in the last...

    Macintosh SE/30 Triple Threat

    In that '90s timeframe I set up a few computers at Goodwill for fun one day and they sent me out the door with a free SE/30.:D Never was all that interested in it or the SE/30 in general until I wound up roping @Bolle and @joethezombie into my madcap reboot of gamba's abandoned PowerCache...

    Loving your VidCard hijinks! Keep 'em coming. :) Have any suggestions for flashable to Mac OS9 PCI cards that'll do 1920x1200 DVI output? edit: side note; does anyone have Mac compatible suggestions for same?

    Mac SE with Radius Accelerator and Page Two Display wont boot.

    Don't remember, but you may need to pull the Accelerator and install the drivers for it first? It has been a VERY long time. edit: ISTR needing a ROM upgrade for my Radius16 to move into System 7?

    Macintosh Portable Video Adapter

    Can't imagine OEM LCD & HDD elimination will not net enough power to run all manner of such upgrades.
