What's the speed on that Plus RAM? It may not be fast enough for the IIcx. So, swap that RAM into Bank A and see what happens. If it boots, you know it's the RAM, if not, you narrowed down where to dig deeper.

Totally understand... it's not so much looking to be cheap / and certainly not asking for a "kit" - which would imply all parts are included. A quick look here in the UK has the larger power modules working out at ~$20-25 each and the smaller at ~$10-15, so eliminating their weight and 'value'...

:LOL: (y)

...and will you consider selling PCBs only - for those of us where Int'l shipping will be a considerable cost factor? Awesome work btw!

Question was asked above, but didn't see the answer...?

Have you checked that 32bit Addressing is turned on? Open the Memory Control Panel to check / set.

Are you pressing the CUDA button when you pop the [either] G3 card in? It's been a while since I up"d my PowerCenter to a G3, but I'm pretty sure I needed to do this - and several times. I've also seen occasions (wutg other PMs I've upgraded) where there was no "bong", but the Mac started up...

Our own @max1zzz may have just what you need : Thread 'FS: LC (II) Plus - Combined LCII / CC Accelerator & Ethernet card' https://68kmla.org/bb/index.php?threads/fs-lc-ii-plus-combined-lcii-cc-accelerator-ethernet-card.47380/

Am curious about this statement... did you mean "de"humidifier? Also, you say "tunnelling didn't return" - does that mean you 'fixed' it?

I have not. My 3400Cs are all in bits. I'll try to find time to put one (mostly) together and check out @croissantking's wizardry. The 180c card he populated for me works great! 🙂

I've just come across in an old thread a remark by @Mac128 that "I have measured the cabinet and confirmed that the HD20 will accept a Widget drive. The HD20 is identical to the 20SC cases which were intended to take 3.5 & 5.25 inch full height drives. Likely why the HD20 was an inch taller...

Great stuff! Glad it worked out. 👍

Have you tried tracking down one of the Adaptec cards : https://68kmla.org/bb/index.php?threads/silicon-image-sil3112-flashing-easier-way-using-flashrom.7013/post-491918 There's a boxed one not too far from you : https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/264442988479

@croissantking - I may have a donor CPU you could use for this. Drop me a PM if you're considering a repair.

Judging by the keyboard, I'd guess a Macintosh Plus. No idea on the s/w, but here's a screenshot in case it helps someone identify :

Aww... bummer. After stripping & cleaning mine, plus adding an 8-ball :cool: [https://68kmla.org/bb/index.php?threads/better-trackball-for-kensington-turbo-mouse.46169/] - it's my favorite pointy device. I'd still like one, and will be happy to help with the journey - will at least be able to...

My 180C came with a partly populated Kingston (IIRC) card - a local wizard I know lifted chips from some other PB RAM cards I had and fully populated the 180C card to the max! 🙂

Not yet... got distracted with the PB 100 restoration, my PM8500 upgrade to dual 604s + BeOS, some early version BlueSCSI & SCSI2SD shenanigans (which impacted the PM8500 u/g :confused:) ... so ... haven't popped open the 180C to fit that shiny new RAM card. Getting close, though, re-capping...

:ROFLMAO:

...cap leakage issues / other logicboard failures and general unreliability of SE/30s are what keeps me away from them. :LOL: Not to dis the SE/30 (or 68k PowerBooks) but these old Macs are just that - old - so, routine TLC and preventative maintenance comes with the territory. For me, my 68k...
