    840AV auto-inject floppy - how to mount in drive bay?

    If I remember correctly, the Q800 bracket will work in all of the early minitower cases (800, 840av, 8100, and 8500), so you probably need that part. Could check with Herb Johnson in New Jersey. I think he does ship internationally. http://www.retrotechnology.com/herbs_stuff/m_parts.html

    What I've received as of late...

    They're nice machines. Even though they were a departure from the previous fully-expandable II series machines, with a separate keyboard, etc, they were also the most powerful of the series. Back in the '90s, I did have that A2S6001 IIgs upgrade kit machine, which did have the old school //e...

    What I've received as of late...

    Conquested another Woz IIgs last month. Has board problems, but came with nice plastics, so swapped the better pieces to my main IIgs. If the latest IIgs doesn't sell, I might chuck a ROM 3 board into it. Am about to conquest a 2.4GHz C2D Mac Mini from @JC8080 this weekend. 4GB RAM, 500GB...

    IIGS high speed scsi

    Welcome to the club. Have had one for about a year. Installed it in the temporary machine I had before my old machine returned, then moved it to the old IIgs after I got that computer home. Just FYI, if you do boot the machine with no SCSI drive hooked up, there will be a 5-10 second delay...

    SCSI for Dummies Thread - How to properly use SCSI

    Jeff, Ah, ok. So, that info may be found in one of the more recent scrapes of the site done by the wayback machine... I didn't check to see if the forum had been archived or not, though.

    Sure. Not a problem.

    Memory in Quadra 950

    Yes, that is fine. As long as they're the same size, it should be ok.

    Macintosh IIfx logicboard recreation

    Nice. Glad to see that there's now an option for those of us who have damaged IIfx boards and can't seem to find a good original board to replace them with.

    How to download files on a Mac OS 9 computer?

    On my G4 DA about 2-3 months ago, using Classilla. Accessed Google, and also accessed the Macintosh Garden, while I was online.

    Apple iigs

    There are multiple cards available. The one in mine is the Apple II High-Speed SCSI card. You might want to look into the CFFA3000, actually. Can use either CF cards or USB flash drives. https://www.reactivemicro.com/product/cffa-v1-0-rev-c-rm-for-ii-ii-iie-and-iigs/ I would also recommend...

    Better Trackball for Kensington Turbo Mouse

    Sounds like the rubber grommets were added to prevent the roller from moving. Just looked at my ADB version, and there are no rubber grommets in place and the roller moves freely. The Plus version that I had was the same way as my ADB version. The DIP switches control operation of the...

    IIci 64MB memory upgrade issues. Do I have the wrong RAM?

    My old IIci had those in it as well. I've since moved them to the Quadra 950. Still working perfectly. In fact, for a while, I had eight in it as well. Took a while to boot. I wonder if your machine might have another issue causing it to not show any activity with the SIMMs, yet be ok with...

    Mac Pro 2008

    Mine, which was an 8-core 2.8GHz machine did that quite well. Video card that was in mine was a Radeon HD 5770. Make sure that whichever video card you use is installed in the bottom slot. Actually had the heatsink come loose on the chip under the second slot above. Machine became somewhat...

    ClassicGuyPhilly's Finds

    Yeah, sometimes they get stuff wrong. Case in point, they have the model identifier for the Centris 650 listed as M1250. Sent them a photo of the label on the back of my old C650, and they thanked me, but said they'd have to verify it before changing the information on it. Guess they thought...

    setting up a G4 Tower Quicksilver 933 MHz

    It's a nice card. Has both DVI and ADC ports on it. At least, the Mac version does.

    setting up a G4 Tower Quicksilver 933 MHz

    Interesting. Got rid of the card in March 1999, though. Current G4 DA runs a Radeon 9000.

    Apple Color Monitor…Colors?

    Yeah, that's normal. If you have access to the DOS 3.3 Sample Programs disk, you can either load up the Brick Out game, or the Color Test program, which should show all 16 colors.
