Strange board on Mac 512k — #30

I will make new pictures, with more detail of the chips you mention. If I connect the board to the 512, I get a bong and a black screen. No effort is made by the Mac to start from…

G4-533DP $19.99! — #8

The Znyx ZX345 (aka Apple 10/100 Fast Ethernet Card) should work just fine with that G4, and they can often be found on eBay for <=$10 shipped. (look for an apple-branded o…

I'd be interested in a better picture of those chips along the bottom of the board. The only picture I could find showed just the corner of the chips which looked like some kind of…

Setting proper resolution on widescreen LCD — #16

Interesting... I bought it off the clearance table, so it had no cables. Looking through my stash of parts at home I found a Male-Male VGA cable. I'll try another cable later on…

Setting proper resolution on widescreen LCD — #15

I had a problem with my monitor not being able to display its full rez on any machine I tried and then I switched out the VGA cable with a better one and it worked fine after that.

Thanks for the compliments! I can help with explaining: TTL = Transistor to Transistor Logic IC= Integrated Circuit = Chip (more or less in a loose translation) = simple form of…

Has anyone done any analysis of the individual ICs as yet? I haven't had a chance to check out the new pics on a big monitor. I had a NewLife Accelerator for the Compacts (in a 51…
