Okay - where can I get one Sonnet G3 Cache Module? Or a 512kB Cache Module?

The TAM works again - just got a few minutes and I removed the Cache module and it started immediately from the internal disk that I thought was defective. Maybe all the problems this machine had in the last years was just a broken Cache module? I´ll see - for testing I do not put it back into...

Hi Byrd! It last for two or three days. Than I opened the TAM and used compressed air do remove any dust, I clean the contacts of the Cache module and the RAM module with alcohol. When I put back everything and tried to restart, the TAM makes the startup sound and thats all :( the display...

Okay.... Well last week I started my TAM and got a strange noise from the disk and it does not boot. So I thought the disk is gone, Byrd was right. I throw the old disk away and put another 10GB disk into the TAM. I setup two partitions, the first one was about 1GB and it is for the system...

Hello! I had the problem that my Classic with MacTCP 2.1 and System 7.1 crashed as soon as I tried to use MacTCPWatcher and ping it self or another computer. But ping from another computer worked as soon as I started a Browser or other programs that uses TCP/IP. If you use MacTCPWatcher don't...

Hm, i don't think so. It needs at least 7.5.1 and my Classic runs 7.1 Bye, eweri

Hello! Well I found out, that MacIP was always running, but when I tried to use ping in MacTCPWatcher it generates a crash. I played around with MacTCPWatcher from my "MacIP-Gateway" - a SE/30 - and tried to ping the Classic and was surprised that I got ping answers from the Classic as soone...

Hm that is strange. Everywhere I read that I have to select LocalTalk in the MacTCP control panel and then have to select the right AppleTalk-Zone in the pulldown menu - BUT - I do not have any pull down menu beneath the LocalTalk Icon :( Just for curiosity I use IPNetRouter running on a...

Hello! I am looking for an installable ssh packet for A/UX that is running on my IIfx. I found ssh packages on different ftp-servers, but the packages are all damaged :( Some ftp-servers have the ssh package listet in its table of content but in fact the package is not there. I playing...

Hm, okay but how? As I wrote my Classic crashes immediately when I try to use TCP/IP programs. Bye, eweri

:) think if've got it I just reflow the connector pins without success, but than I reflow two smd-resistors between the simm-slot and the mounted memory and voila - the Classics boots up. I can now shake the memory board but the Classic does not crash. At the moment it is running for about...

Well, If i put some pressure at the top edge of the memory board toward the analog board - it works (do not know for how long). I took some paper and pressed it between the board and the metal frame - this way I put some pressure at the lower third of the board towards the analog board - this...

Hm, I looked at the simm slots but I can not see any problem - I cleaned the ximm slots connectors and the SIMM modules. I try to re-flow the first simm socket - I am going to report later. Bye, eweri

So I am not alone ;) Well, I think it is a problem of the connector. I tried to clean the pins, I took my multimeter and tried to find bad connections between the main board and the memory board but nothing. I knocked on every solder point, as long as I put some pressure at the top edge...

Hello uniserver! As I wrote it - I've already done the recap and cleaning of the board. Before the recap the Classic crashed immediately - after the recap it runs with 2MB RAM stable. It only crashes with 4MB RAM after some time. Bye, eweri

:( the Classic just crashed again after running about 1 hour DarkSide :( I looked at the memory board, but I could not find a suspicious solder joint. Bye, eweri

Hello! I just played around with some old Compact Macs and tried to get MacIP with MacTCP running on my Macintosh Classic running System 7.1. I've installed MacTCP 2.0.6 and selected the LocalTalk port but as soon as I try to ping an ip address with MacTCP-Watcher the Mac crashes with Trap 12...

Hello! I have a Macintosh Classic here with a memory problem. About 2 years ago the Classic worked without a problem with 4MB RAM. About 1 year ago it started that after a few minutes the Classic crashes. About 6 weeks ago I tried to start the Classic again and it crashed immediately. Because...

Okay i try to be as exact as possible: 1. @applefreak: System does not matter - happens with 8.6 and 9.2.2 (I do not have the original install media :( ) 2. @Trash80toHP_mini: As I mention in my post I can only recover from this error by reformating (initializing) the hd 3. @Byrd: It does...

Hello! I have a TAM with a strange problem: It works perfectly, boots up as expected everything is fine but only for about 6-15 reboots. After that the TAM got hung in the boot process with the little colored mac (no extension loaded at that point) I can boot with the CD or external SCSI drive...
