    Macintosh SE audio too *loud*?

    I've tried to find threads about this but all I can find is people talking about the speaker being too *quiet* with regards to capacitor issues, though that is mainly on later models. I have the opposite problem with my SE though! The speaker in my Macintosh SE (non-FDHD) is uncomfortably loud...

    PM 6500: Specific hard drive causes instability?

    Hey all! I have a Western Digital 320 GB drive which was bought new around 2010-ish. When using it with my Power Macintosh 6500, I can create a partition (without using the whole 320 GB of course, only around 128 GB shows up; I created a 60 GB partition) and install 8.6. But it then fails to...

    Setting mouse speed on boot via an INIT?

    Hi! So, I've been playing around with a Macintosh SE that I recently acquired and of course, the PRAM battery on the motherboard is long dead (I plan on opening up the case to remove it soon). This is mostly fine, I don't mind the fact that the date and time aren't accurate. However, what does...

    Power Macintosh 6500/275 - variable fan speed?

    I recently got a Power Macintosh 6500 and after playing around with it for a little bit, I could've sworn I heard the fans ramp up and down every now and then. But as far as I know, these older generations of Power Macs don't support variable fan speeds, right? The reason I'm curious about this...

    Learning 68k assembly - issues with _NewWindow

    Hi!! So I've been playing around with learning Macintosh Programmer's Workshop and 68k assembly, and I'm currently trying to just make a simple hello world application. Yet I can't even get a window to render properly for whatever reason. The application starts but it doesn't display anything...
