Sorry to keep bumping this up. Can the moderators or site admins please make this a sticky in the Classic Macs area? Thank you. 73s de Phreakout. :rambo:

You're a bit vague on the details. Are you getting a shock when your hand is placed right in front of the screen? If that is true, then I would agree with tomlee59. But if you h…

The IIfx doesn't seem to want to boot properly now. I get the chime but nothing else. It doesn't attempt to access the hard drive or the disk drive (it did the first time I turned …

OK, try "mode 5 VGA 640x480" separate sync. Avoid mode 6, sync on green, is what I meant to say. If the picture won't stop rolling / tearing, the monitor may require SOG (mode 6) b…

Actually, the yoke carries very dangerous voltages (and currents). Specifically, the horizontal deflection winding is the one that can give you a serious bite. I treat the yoke wit…

Ok So my screen has those diagonal lines and I notice that the screen has like a lot of static electricity in it. I had my hand on screen and turned it on and it zapped the %#$&amp…

At ThinkGeek they used to have a Static Electricity discharger I always use for computers and the like... And how about Static Spray?

Solution to my focus problem: Thanks to all for input. Here's solution told me by my tech.: The adjustment he was referring to is the cutoff. I have already done that - turned t…

I'd recommend switching out analog boards before you try to use it again. Try to find a working SE/30 analog board to use while you deal with the one in the machine now. And, if …

Then use the bullet. Option+8. Moving other things up leaves the others further down so it's not completely irrelevant information.

There's also the Nubus Mafia at Applefritter.

Nope, if you can boot and get the machine to start recognizing the adb keyboard for the option key, it does just that. Puts up a rotation of screens and tells you the resolution a…

I assume that only works if you have the Radius drivers installed. You may find more information on your card here: http://www.lowendmac.com/video/ Click to expand... That was my…

ah, guys, are you sure you are directing me in the right direction ? When i got on this elevator i wanted to go down.

I've seen floppy drive cleaning kits kicking around the dollar stores, still. They seem to consist of a normal 3.5" floppy casing with a "disk" made out of fabric, and a small tub…

Go out and find a nice Sony Trinitron, they all seem to SOG just fine.

H3nry, thanks for trying to help. The monitor has no apparent way to accept sync on green. I've navigated the On-Screen-Display menu and explored every possible setting, but most …

This is a problem located on the logic board. Click to expand... After further thought, there is also a slight possibility that the problem does lie in the shell or dirty logic…

Oh, okay. What I meant by "touching" was what to hold while rotating the yoke. Because he was asking what was "safe" to handle. If this is not the best thing to do. Thanks for warn…

BTW, the yoke doesn't carry high voltage, so it's safe to touch the coils if you have to to break it loose. Or since you know you're going to rotate it anyway, loosen the clamp and…

The parts you want to touch are marked in red, they are white and made of plastic. Click to expand... No, no, no. Those are the very last things to play with. What Scott, I an…

(Edited for being a bad idea. ) Just follow Scott Baret's guide and you should be fine. (His steps describe exactly what I did. 8-o )

Woah, that's nasty! That should not be happening!

Ahh the IIGS.. My favorite machine of all time!!! If you are looking for a LOT of what was available for this machine please visit the "What is the Apple IIGS" website. it's loc…
