Just wanted to post some experience I've had recently, and ask a quick question... I've been suffering from random icon corruption for some time on my SE/30. The memory on this machine has been expanded to 68MB - 4 x 1MB and 4 x 16MB. I've followed the gamba placement instructions (although if...

I've recently had to transfer my re-capped SE/30 logic board into another (SE/30) Mac, as I'd managed to damage my analog board with some resoldering I tried to do (flyback clicking, no startup, no bong, fan spins, no HD - a problem for another day!). When I power up, it appears that the screen...

I've developed a slight screen glitch (SE/30); the screen's width now slightly grows and shrinks. It's not constant, but it is a bit bothersome. Other than this, the screen is pretty bright & stable. Before I change the power supply (unless anyone else has any thoughts?), I'd like to reflow...

So, have had my logic board re-capped by Phreakout (cheers again!), and all is going very well indeed. Until today. Switched on my SE/30, and the chimes of doom spring out with a simasi mac pattern on the screen. First thing is take the back off and have a look around. Nothing burnt / melted /...

Hi As is the tradition at this time of year, my nicely manicured hard disk is just off south for the winter, complete with the contents. My SE/30 is not happy. EBay seems expensive for replacements. I have got a load of Sun SCA disks lying around (4GB iirc). If I get myself an adapter (e.g...

Well, the sights and sounds of an imminent hard drive failure are once again blessing my SE/30. :'( A/UX is chucking up read/write errors, which apparently are 'recovered', but I would prefer they weren't there. What's the largest SCSI disk I can put in an SE/30; this one is a 1GB device...

Hi all There's recently been a post on the Compact Mac forum here, about putting both System 6 and System 7 on one mac (an SE/30 iirc). So, do you know of a way of doing this with A/UX 3.1 - e.g., booting a later System 7 (> 7.1) and A/UX from the same disk? Disk is 2GB - also on an SE/30...

Hi I'm running 'top' on an A/UX 3.1 Macintosh SE/30. This has been downloaded from aux-penelope and compiled. The COMMAND and SIZE output is garbled :scrambled: . Any ideas why? e.g., load averages: 1.03, 1.02, 0.81 17:21:57 22 processes: 20...

Howdy all I've got a ye olde G3 beige desktop, with a zip drive, 256MB RAM, 8GB disk, etc. OS X 10.2.8. It will work correctly for about 30 mins - an hour, but will then turn off. Then, it won't power back on. Unless I wait (not sure how long, as I've always just put it back into storage when...

Hi all, just bought a(nother) SE/30 on ebay, so I can practise with my imminent capacitor replacement for my 'proper' SE/30 running A/UX. The monitor's a bit ghosty and there's no sound, so presumably it's suffering from the usual problem. xx( I've taken the logic board out, and it's an old...

Hi I'm the proud owner of an SE/30, running A/UX 3.02... Is anyone aware of a network card that would be compatible with this setup? All I can find is that A/UX required 'special' drivers... Not the System 7.01 ones... but ones written specially for A/UX I guess. Combine this with an SE/30...

Hi - new to this, so please bear with me! I have an SE/30 running A/UX 3.02 and associated 7.0.1 finder. All working fine. I'd like to get this networked, but I'm having a lot of problems finding a suitable card. I think this is a 030 PDS card, but ebay is pretty short of compatible ones...
