I would like to know if anyone has gotten this combo to work ”SE/30 with IIsi ROM and Supermac Spectrum SE/30 graphics card”?

As you can can see from the attached clip -- I have no clue whatsoever.

Thanks Trash!

Do you think it could be the ROM socket? I use a GGLABS IIsi ROM SIMM, and it never cheated on me before? However the board I’m using did have som glitches with BMOW’s ROM-inator II, and I do have another SE/30 board to test it with. As soon as get my new FPM memory (should be in the mail by now) I’m gonna try it again! 

 
Nah, if the original Dirty ROM SIMM works flawlessly the socket's not to blame. ROM-inator II arrived and gave identical "error code" so it's likely the "clean" ROMs across the board. MODE32 may have to do. Its lower OS ceiling doesn't bother me, gotta check with the folks who've reported successes.

When I find its cable or the time to build one I'll check results with the SE/30 version of the Pivot. joethezombie has reported problems with using the RCPII/IIsi in combination with other cards, hrmmm  .  .  .

Thinking along those lines, what OS are you running? Mine's System 7.1 (for any Macintosh) and the etched marking on my board are:

 DGC

12VO

  21         149S

Bolded number is negative space inside an etched rectangle, so I'm guessing that's a particular run designation?

SE/30 Variables?

Board Revision

Production Date

ROM spec.

OS

other cards installed in combination

.  .  .  same for VidCards in question???

 
Yes, System 7.1 is my all-time favorit!  :)

Could this be of any help?

ROM: IIsi (v124, 512K, GGLABS)

Board: Green

Board number: 820-0260-A

Manufactured in: Cork
Year: 1991
Week: 11

*I don’t have it handy in writing.

Tests was carried out with and without the TwinSpark 2.0 and Daystar PowerCache 50MHz (P33), and the results where the same.
