    Diagnosing Mac LCIII over serial bus

    I have an LCIII which as running perfectly for months but crashed while trying to load ClassiCube 68k and has not booted since. A full recap had been done, C22 polarity fixed and it was overclocked to 33mhz. The error message when it crashed was a bomb with type 10 error code. It now plays the...

    17" ADC CRT Studio Display

    A few years back I picked up a quicksilver G4 tower, which to me is the nicest looking of the G4 towers. Later I purchased a G5 that came with a polycarbonate LCD studio display, just to pair the display up with the G4. Well there has long been another display on my mind for this mac, the last...

    Sharing a Mac Plus SCSI2SD with other Macs

    I'm in the process of setting up a new to me Mac Plus for regular use. I have an external SCSI2SD v5, which I've set up according to the instructions for System 6.0.8 at savagetaylor.com. The machine booted fine with the basic 2GB image. I am hoping to use AppleTalk with my Asante Ethernet...

    Performa 5400 video resolution shenanigans

    I'm trying to figure out a discrepancy in the available display resolutions on my beloved Performa 5400. Normally I run Mac OS 8.6 on this machine, however I have a second partition running 9.0.X. Under 8.6 the maxumum resolution available is 832 x 624, but under OS 9 it's 1024 x 768. I do a lot...

    AppleDesign powered speakers grille removal.

    Does anyone know how to remove the metal grilles from the original AppleDesign powered speakers? I'm preparing a set to retrobrite and don't want to risk causing corrosion on the grilles, but cannot work out how to remove them. I've tried a heat gun and some force from inside but they won't budge.

    USB / FireWire audio interfaces on PCI Performa

    Hey all, I have a performa 5400 which I've been having a lot of fun mucking around with audio on. I'm surprised it can handle quite a few tracks of CD quality audio in Soundedit 16, maybe thanks to the solid state storage upgrade. I have a Sonnet Allegro USB / FW card installed which works...

    Replacing optical drive in Performa 5400

    I have a black Performa 5400 Directors edition, which after a painful teardown, thorough clean and recap, was in working condition. However part way through installing the OS from a CD ROM, it seems the CD ROM drive (Matsushita CR-508-C) fried itself. No lights, won't open the tray. I removed it...
