I've now also done a fresh install of 7.6 Still is 100% happy on 7.1, but freezes when trying to shutdown or restart from 7.6. It's not too serious for me as I can just hit the r…

Or you can try the webkit engine thing that was released a while ago that will allow modern pages to be rendered into older browsers. 

You can try iCab, it is probably the most recent browser for a 68k mac.  That being said, it is by no means up to date, and will have trouble displaying most webpages on the net to…

this is interesting and something you want to keep an eye on.   there might be a bug in his firmware.

I tried a different SD card, 2gb and also not SDHC. Split into two partitions and still the same issue. It seems it does it on 7.5.3 or above for some reason. I've installed 7.1.…

OK.  I will work on that.  Thank you!! jack

Sharing between Windows 7 and System 7.5.5? Use an FTP server on the Win7 box and Fetch on the CC II to access it.

Hi folks.... I just upgraded the OS in my Color Classic (with a Color Classic II logic board) to 7.5.5 After that, I installed a ethernet card and software.  The software has a o…

Yeah good plan - I'll try a different card before bothering Mike thanks again folks

Have you tried a different SD card? You could quite simply be running up against a bad card or a cheap card that isn't rated for the task and blocks keep going bad.

nope i have no idea it sounds strange.   maybe talk to mike and see what he thinks. doesn't he offer support for his products these days?

Frustratingly that doesn't seem to have solved it (now have 2x ~500MB partitions and 2x ~1.4GB partitions). Not sure what to try next... maybe a reinstall of the system software?

Unfortunately it's ultrasonically welded so I can't open it without destroying the case. My assumption is you will find the AAUI-AUI conversion is completely passsive, along with a…

yeah i always had good luck with 1.7 gig partitions.  seemed to get issues when i went over that.

Thanks very much - I used Lido to format it in the first place, but my partitions are 2gb, I'll backup, initialise and then make smaller partitions and try again.

How about Lido?

Hi Folks.... Can anyone tell me the CFM and the dBA of the *original* Color Classic fan? The original fan is 80 mm X 80 mm by 25 mm.  I believe the fan housing can take at least …

Yeah, make sure your partitions are under 2GBs.  That can cause all sorts of weird problems.

Rats!  The patched HDSC Setup bootdisk is too large to fit on a 3.5 inch floppy.  I will keep looking. Thanks everyone jack

i would say hit it with lido7 ,  nuke drive make new partitions, don't exceed 1.7 gb each. re-install 7.5, and you should be fine. here

The next thing I'm going to try is a fresh system install on a different SD card

I should mention also that I've swapped out the PSU and logicboard and it behaves the same (at first I thought it was maybe faulty SCSI controller).

Sherlock isn't in 7.5.5...it's not even 68k compatible.
