Around the area where the PRAM battery is located - would be the issue. It would be caused by slight battery leak which is very common issue for those. Cheers AP

The earlier system the better/faster than newer system. ie. on 68k Mac 8.1 was slow to perform over System 7.1 which is tons faster. As what Gorgonops is correct. Some Macs doesn't like dual booting - your 1400c is more likely will accept dual booting. That is why I have Macs there with...

It looks like a video card to me - but not much info on those... Cheers AP

Via FTP yeah? I can connect via FTP at 7.1 which is good enough. Cheers AP

Nice... What is the oldest system that you're able to connect to it? Ive got FreeNAS for my needs, the oldest System is Mac OS 7.6.1 that can connect to it via AFP, Im able to connect to it via my MacBook Pro and 68k mac with ethernet can connect to it. I've had Macintosh IIci connected to...

I've done countless of caps and never lifted a pad by twisting it exactly 180° twist. What people don't realise - the cap leak is actually toxic. What makes me cringe is once you've washed in the dishwasher - you're eating it on your dinner plate and drinking the glasses from your old caps!!! ...

yep that above. If you have windows/DOS disk that you want to use - you'll need PC File Exchange control panel installed on that Mac to recognise file format coming in, it'll convert to whatever needed to be. Cheers AP

Growing up - I had PowerBook 190cs and later upgraded to 5300cs, later found 5300ce sold it all off (regretted!) Last year I obtained two PowerBook 190s and both are working well. About 4 years ago I did obtain PowerBook 5300cs and it just crumbled into pieces - very bad plastics and it had...

Evening all -  I recently acquired MicroMac's Carrera040 and I have not been able to start Macintosh IIsi. Macintosh IIsi has been professionally recapped and is working 100%. Once I install control panel & extension in the folders, Mode32 and or 32bit is active in System - doesn't...

The only concern I have is if the power management in Mac Portable can cope with that type of battery for charging and powering it - I don't think so. Cheers AP

Ive gone with Dell - I have both 27" and 24" - both monitors has ALL the ports what I'd use. VGA, DVI, Component (works with Apple IIgs), S-Video, HDMI... I might've missed one or two more - best monitor I could find and would recommend. Bear in mind  when you're looking for one - always ask...

Spot the difference -  They're both 68040 33mhz Dark Green - Quadra 800 Green - Quadra 650 Quadra 800 Logicboard https://www.dropbox.com/s/1xq7fm6hscy51k7/IMG_0087.JPG?dl=0 Quadra 650 Logicboard https://www.dropbox.com/s/71ilczfkgm9zh3r/IMG_0088.JPG?dl=0 Connector & Jumper for Quadra...

I have both logicboards - Quadra 650 and 800. The only difference visually I can see is that 800 board has connector for external LED and jumper to activate Q800, without it it'll become Quadra 650. The other difference is that Q650 does not have that connector, I added it on it and it does...
