    Macintosh SE/30 - Activity LED Amber

    While I did save the original amber LED, I replaced mine with a blue one which is connected to my BlueSCSI I don't know if mine was dim, or if it was just my old diabetic eyes, having problems seeing it. But it did seem kind of dim to me, and the blue one is much more noticeable. The only real...

    I've had my ADB II mouse board for a short while now, and just got around to installing it into a freshly retrobrited case today. It was pretty easy to do just a little bit of soldering and four screws. Chuck .E

    Is there a way to turn the monitor off, but leave the logic board active on my SE/30?

    Thanks for the schematic and the advice. I was hoping something like this would show up. It looks pretty simple to splice the +12V wire at pin 10 on the power connector. I would probably just cut into the lead coming in on the power supply side, I certainly don't want to be cutting traces on...

    Yes, I am running the After Dark screensaver, but I was just curious if there was a way to turn The screen completely off. Chuck E.

    Is there a way to turn the monitor off, but leave the logic board active on my SE/30?

    If I wanted to leave my SE/30 on 24/7 for use as a server or BBS, is there a way to add a switch into the monitor circuitry to turn the monitor off so that the CRT doesn't get screen burn? thanks Chuck E.

    Ok, I was able to get DCHP to work by using the User Mode To make it active all the time and Saving the setup and re-booting.

    Trying to get my Asante ethernet card to work on my Mac SE/30

    I didn't realize what the issue was myself until I found a PDF of the installation and set up manual for open transport, online, and I noticed where they put the DNS addresses wasn't where I had mine. What I don't understand is why the DCHP setting doesn't do anything at all, when I chose it...

    Well, it looks like I found the problem. I had the DNS servers in the wrong box. I moved them over to the box on the left and Now everything is working just fine. Frog find came right up. I probably need a better browser than Netscape 1.1 but it will get me to most of the sites the SE/30 is...

    Help installing Mac OS 8.1 on my Mac SE/30

    That's actually what I was doing wrong, I was trying to go straight to an 8.1 install, instead of installing 8.0 first. Today I installed the internal blue scuzzy and was able to successfully create a clean install of 8.0. Tomorrow I will try to update it to 8.1. 8.0 at least is not that bad...

    Getting BlueSCSI desk top SD card outside my SE/30

    I've been trying to figure out how to get the desktop version of the BlueSCSI mounted, while bringing the SD card interface outside the Mac SE/30's case, and this was my solution. The AUI interface on my Asante MacCon is a daughter board, so I simply removed that daughter board and ran an...

    Help installing Mac OS 8.1 on my Mac SE/30

    Very good, I got it to download and stuck it on my micro SD card and booted from the external BlueSCSI. It booted up just fine in 8.1 and I moved the 7.3 system file to a different drive image and was able to boot from it. Are all the other folders on that image from the eight point one...

    Help installing Mac OS 8.1 on my Mac SE/30

    Will the Legacy Recovery CD boot at all without editing the system files for the SE/30 with An upgraded 32 bit clean ROM? I would think you just be able to mount it using BlueSCSI and maybe run an Installer from it, but if I try to install 8.1 aren't I just going to run into the same problem I...
