I missed this, now I am reading it and I think this would be the best news for the new year @WillJac @warmech TashTwenty Mega will be a huge it :D

That would be great for soldering-impaired like me 😎

Maik actually answered, and shared this interesting link where pinout of the 9pin plug is explained: http://longview.be/mirograph-chroma-v33a.html

Hi everybody, I bought a dead IIfx for parts, and I found a few cards inside, among which a Miro Prisma Plus video card. I found old threads where @Bolle shared drivers archived on Maik site mirosupport.com (I found the site before the threads, so I wrote Maik myself and I am curious to see if...

Answering to myself but it might be useful for other users: on Mac Garden there are images of the MS-DOS C: drive file (10 or 20 megs) already set up, so that solved the drive issue - but what really did the trick was using System 6 (6.07 to be precise, the last localized version AFAIK) because...

This is great but when the hardware will be ready (and I would gladly buy a PowerBook unit, plus the possible Portable version!) I will need some clear instruction because I am a bit lost now 😅 - why the Linux PC now? 🤨🤔

I tried with a similar button battery holder, the one keeping batteries horizontally /parallel to the logic board, and my IIfx would not power up, while oldstyle batteries worked. I thought it was because button batteries in fact provide a little less power, but your experience seems to prove me...

Hi everybody, I am kind of crossposting this from another thread, so sorry if I am breaking some rule - I got one of the excellent Mac286 replica cards made by @max1zzz and I am trying to figure out how to make it work. Max was so kind to add in the package the Mac software disks and even the...

BTW it seems we all missed this. I think one of my cards has an oscillator which detached... should I change it? with a faster one maybe?

Some little update, while still waiting for the TransDrive card. First of all, you may want to watch the official PC Transporter install video, distributed on a VHS (!) together with the card and now available on Youtube: The same user has a video showcasing how to install Windows 3 on a...

Hi, unfortunately no FDHD controller here... but as I wrote, a TransDrive daughter card coming soon. the colorSwitch output seems to work, but the IIGS video-out processing / switching seems not to... I will need to look into that more. Meanwhile I tried with two different output cables in...

I confirm that the screen connection seems to be the biggest issue - as usual with the IIGS. As I wrote in previous posts, the connection cable between IIGS video-out and PCT ColorSwitch daughter card seems not to work - so I had to connect the two video ports to two different cables - and two...

So far: I connected an Apple 3.5" drive to the card I think the short cable to connect the IIGS video-out to the ColorSwitch daughter card has some issue, because I can't see anything once the card kicks in, so I am trying to connect two separate monitors, one to the IIGS video card (for...

I wish I had one to test it... but if you do, please share your experience :D

Just FYI, I created a specific thread in the Apple II section, where I am going to describe the process of setting up a PC Transporter card in my ROM03 Apple IIGS. The thread is here and in the main post I linked here as well...

Hi everybody, I just made it to acquire the holy Grail of 16 years old me, the Applied Engineering (AE) PC Transporter card for PC compatibility on Apple IIe / IIGS. The card I got seems to be a rev. D, looking like this: I am setting it up in a ROM03 IIGS, and it's a learning process that I...

I think the one in the pics IS an mSATA SSD, plus adapter card to IDE 2.5", plus adapter board to IDE 3.5" and mounted on an adapter sleed.

I used exactly the same components for an SSD upgrade of a 1.25Ghz iMac G4 (sunflower / iLamp) . I got stuck with white screen at boot, and after some panic, it seems I solved putting a slave/master jumper on one of the two spare pin couples besides the 2.5 IDE plug of the adapter card. Someone...

I was lucky enough to score a whole Apple II graphics tablet set (card + tablet + pen) and I already have a spare tablet alone. All manuals and docs are available online, so I really hope this will be a nice way to spend some fun time on my Apple IIe or IIeuroplus. I also have a couple of...

I tried a few of these boxes, and they did not really work for me... I will give it another try, maybe now building my own cable like @magnusfalkirk and providing audio signals to the monitor too.
