Excellent-- I'm happy the file worked. :)

Thanks !

It has the standard Mac II video card. I know for sure that it doesn't power up, so I'll start with a recap on the logic board, the power supply. I'd like to run system 6.0.8 on it, so I can get my Mac286 card working.

@Bolle  --I have the ROM file. PM Sent.

Added a Mac IIx to the collection. I haven't  got it yet, but I'll post some pics when it comes in. As far as I can tell, it's all there except a hard drive. It's going to need some work.

@Andropov -- Thanks very much for the pictures. I think I will try to add a pair of Si4840DY to my VRM.

@Bolle   I received the card today.  I'll test it out over the weekend and see if I can dump the ROM.

That's good to know.  I could try without the 040.   I installed an Asante MC3NB card instead of the Apple card and everything works.

Started up with No extensions-- no problems. Acceleration was fine. Turns out that the problem is A/ROSE. But that kills the Apple Ethernet card. I'll have to swap the card out with an Asante ethernet card.

Thanks-- 1.1 is the current ROM then.

Thanks Steve --Looks like the Spec 24 III is not Power Mac compatible. The Turbo 040 is a 68040, and the Supermac card works OK, but it has Quick Draw issues when the acceleration is on under 7.1.1.  My guess is there's a higher version ROM.  This one is 1.1 Rick

I have a Spectrum 24/III with the daughter card. It's installed in a IIci, with a Daystar Turbo 040. I'm running 7.1.1 on the IIci. With the acceleration ON, I get a corrupted display when scrolling the contents of a window. I've tried turning off Virtual Memory, and I don't have a ton of...

OK-- I'll get the burner and see what I can do.  It's an old Data IO 29B-- I'm pretty sure it can do 27256 .

Thanks-- I tried it with 24 bit addressing- no go.  I think the 286 versions had DOS in ROM. Not 100 percent sure though. I have System 7 Pro and a Turbo 040 card in my IIci. Guess I'll have to pull the 040 and try 6.0.7 I have a SCSI2SD in there, so I can toss in another SD Card.

I figured it would not work in a 7100-- I tried it in my IIci, but forgot to turn off 32 bit addressing.  The software seemed to boot up, but I didn't see a DOS window or any way to get to DOS. Can't find any docs on the web, there's basically nothing out there on this card. Mine is the dual...

Is it even possible that a Orange Micro Mac 286 could work in a 7100? I'm thinking No, as the drivers probably won't work under 7.1.2 and up.

It looked like it was in good shape. I bid on it to run some tests and see if it's faster than my Supermac Spec 24/III.

I just bought that exact card. Should have it this week.  I can test it in my IIci.  I have a PROM Burner that I can dig out and make you a copy. The ROM on mine says V1.2.2 The only thing I'm not sure of is if I have any 256K EPROMS. I may be able to load it into the burner and save to disk...

What did you use to mount the new drive in your Cube?  I modified the cover of my old drive into a mount.  There was a member of the old Cubeowner forum that used to 3-D print them.
