The on board SCSI chip is simply fried. and unfortunately it is integrated into a chip on the board. The board probably has other issues too. Click to expand... It is rare to h…

OH! And I would like to get ahold of the 1mb cache module if anyone is selling one of those or knows where to find one. Click to expand... They are unobtainium, unless you find…

- More RAM slots, the 7100 has 8, meaning its cheaper and easier to upgrade than the 6100, with its 2. Click to expand... The 7100 has four memory slots and paradoxically, actu…

No fair!!!

There are lots of possible problems here. System RAM needs to be fast (off the top of my head 80ns -- correctly guessed) and 2MB SIMMs don't work. You have to have functioning RAM…

Nice! Have fun with that machine!

So I visited a Salvation Army thrift store in PA that I tend to frequent. Usually in their electronics section in the basement only have monitors and printers. So this time when I …

Well, I just read that 100 NS RAM (aka LC/LC II series RAM) won't work on the Macintosh IIci. Will the IIci give video without RAM?

System 7.0 and 7.0.1 are rather buggy releases, so 7.1 might be a good start.

Sounds like a great conquest, and it's always fun to be able to combine two machines into one. I always liked the way tibooks looked, but they way they were built leaves a lot to …

Update: The printer does not want to power on at all. I would take a look in the PSU, as it might be the fuse or some leaky capacitors, but its really not worth my time. (It's a pr…

I remember the very first time I saw one "in da flesh" in late 2002 - nearly two years after they were released. It was a brand new TiBook 800, and I remember thinking what an amaz…

They are nice machines! I remember when they were new I always thought they were the coolest. Such a jump from the G3 PowerBooks (even though I like them and they were great machin…

Sounds like it might be worth running the appropriate version of Norton Disk Doctor over your drive Click to expand... Also a very good idea.

I'll check that location. Thanks! BTW, no VRAM stick is necessary, right? And also I'm using 100 ns RAM. Will that work?

When they stripped the IIci maybe they took the ROM jumper at W1. Without it you won't get any video. Wayne

So a while back, I received a bare Macintosh IIci motherboard. No RAM, and an old battery. I replaced the old battery with a new one and put in x4 2 MB SIMMS. When I turn the pow…

8-o 1.60$?! I am hoping to do a freecycle Haul this weekend of Pre-G3 stuff and an iMac G3, by the guys description... Awesome Conquest! I love the dimpled floppy drive of the L…

Very nice! :O

Very nice. Here's hope that it doesn't succumb to the dreaded PAF.

Today's haul: Macintosh LC 475, AppleCD 300e Plus, Apple Personal LaserWriter printer, a SCSI scanner, a Performa Plus CRT, and a bunch of cables. The LC and CD drive both work fin…

I went on a Cube-binge a few years back, and upgraded my 450MHz model with a Dual-G4 running at (IIRC) 1.2GHz. Installed a stronger analog power board, mounted her in one of those…

System 7.1 is a good idea. My Macintosh LC runs perfectly with it (not slow at all, especially if you have 10 MB of RAM) BTW, just make a clean system reinstall the informal way. …
