It's a good thing Sony ONLY made Trinitrons in Japan...

any news here yet? I grabbed a couple cards as well- I also have an original sonnet i can try dumping the retail FW from its eprom of we get nowhere on the downgrader...

On the technical side of things, ADB is NOT hotswap nor was it ever designed to be. The ADB table is normally only initialized with data from devices at startup by the ADB manager. A reinit can be forced (there are utilities for this), but it is not very clean and can cause issues on a running...

pull any other pci cards that are nonessential- i've never seen a preference with the sonnet data card- i use it in 7.6.1- but i HAVE seen strange incompatibilities, like 2 in one system as well as the long radius video board set... one + the radius boards is stable, and 2 with ANY other cards i...

If you'd be interested, I've been looking for the driveless LC style faceplate for a few years now .. I have bits of stuff I could probably trade for it / buy if interested- drop me a pm

any chance you have any duplicate cartridges? I missed out on an auction ending today with a few spares, and am in need of CPU tests 3 and 4... thanks, drop me a pm if any chance...

pretty sure that version of the g-port can be removed from the backplane and work as a normal modem replacement one...

the eprom read fine, sadly there's next to nothing on it. I'll post up the dump if anyone cares, but it basically identifies it as "cytyc corp" pasta board. the rest of the labeled chips are pla's which may or may not be readable by my programmer- i'll have to see, but i'm not holding my...

You know, yes original 601 ppc's look awesome.. but yeah.. was remounting the heatsink on my new 9150 board today and cracked the chip- why? because it doesn't actally touch the board- there's a huge gap behind the chip between it and the board... argh- I guess I'll pull a chip from a 7100 are...

I'll give that last option a shot and see what turns up... the TI chips are SN74BCT2420FN "Nubus Address/Data Transceivers And Registers" http://pdf1.alldatasheet.com/datasheet-pdf/view/130241/TI/SN74BCT2420FN/+031_5_VRh/1yOvNGH/1vwCvP/1+/datasheet.pdf I'll try to get better pics of the...

Q900, Q950, WGS95, Q9150, ANS500/700 all should share the same style key .. TYPE, but i'm unsure of the keying... duodock keys look COMPLETELY different. gold colored, dark grey rectangle end... I think i had something else that used the duo keys, but i'm drawing a blank at the moment

oh well that was all there was with it in a pile of other junker (mostly ii video card) boards...

dang.. i'm still looking for people to trade techstep carts with...

don't forget foreign file access and its addon extensions.

I've been contemplating a system inside an external 3.5" case with working 3.5" drive still...

I'm not too sure.. I'll see if those are roms i can dump once my programmer comes in this week so i can see if there's any clues as to what it is... The chips onboard don't look very "video" to me...

Nod- more or less what I already knew- working on a pinout to get the vga header functional. also, the case parts are late 2005 g5 case parts.. interesting as the system came out in early/mid 2005... i guess in a sense, it qualifies as a "prototype" of the late 2005 g5 case as well :) ...

can any nubus experts identify this? the board styling and tagging looks somewhat apple, the fact we've got prototype names on some of the chips is interesting.. sadly it seems the label on the eprom is removed, so no idea what that said... it's a strange board...

Not sure I've posted a conquest before, so I'll post this little gem. Photos Apple System Profiler Report (edited for privacy) http://eastrain.com/68kmla/dtk/DTK_EDITED.spx

while rebuilding is an option, it's not the best case scenario in terms of 'archiving". In the end, when i can't find a solution, i usually put it on my watched lists and buy a copy when it rolls around. at some point, I do hope the vintage macintosh software "archiving" efforts actually...
