Stupid question here...when you say boot from Disk Tools, do you mean have the computer off and then turn it on with the Disk Tools in?

I am merely looking for a piano replacement that will let them play with some synthesizer-like effects. But keyboard action is the key. Click to expand... Still doesn't answer …

You wouldn't have any interest in parting with the copy of Microsoft Flight Simulator, would you?

Plenty of businesses would buy multiple copies of business software and just open one and install that set on all their machines (in the 80's and early 90's). Be careful with the …

Nice, how much were they? Click to expand... They were arbitrarily priced from $2-$6 each. I pretty much cleaned them out of shrinkwrapped Mac software. I did turn down some no…

Nice, how much were they?

Holy cow, nice! I've been meaning to go to a Goodwill to check it out.

Unless you have files you need to keep, what you do is first boot from the Disk Tools disk. Then run Apple HD SC setup. Erase the HDD. Restart (it should eject the floppy), now …

I spoke too soon, I went to restart and the question mark face was back.

Ok, this was great! I did all these steps and got in. So, how would I search to see if there is private, personal info on it? When I shut down and restart do I need to use the Disk…

MIDI can be transfered either via USB or via a MIDI-to-USB interface. I've used my synths both ways with GarageBand.

Try setting the jumpers on the back of both drives to CS (cable select). Also, take the RAM down from 1.25GB to say 512MB, if possible. Sometimes OSX will do funky things when yo…

JDW is correct on what he has said. Most display issues are centralized around analog technology, hence the analog board. If it were a problem centralized with the logic board, y…

If its saying that there's not enough hard drive space, clearly that means the hard drive is working, which makes life easier already. By the sound of it, I'm assuming you have a s…

unless that filter chip is flooding the system with noise, course if it were enough to cause focus issues on a totally different system its going to cause all sorts of havoc

You appear to be confirming what I had guessed before. Namely, that you did NOT have this screen focus problem when you first had your SE/30 operational, prior to any motherboard …

So I put in the install me first disk, then it asks for the install disk and back and forth till finally it says there is not enough memory and to delete things, but I cannot get i…

Well thank you! I went and found the start up disk and so far there was a so, this must be on the rigth path?

A flashing question mark means that the system cannot find a System Folder. Have you been able to start the machine up before? Also, does it sound any different (quieter) than it d…

The flashing ? at least means it is trying to do something. The floppy disk needs to have System 7 on it.

Gary, Can you post a photo of the screen so we can make determine whether this is spot on to what Trag said? In the mean time, I'll verify this with my own SE/30, even if it's no…

Ok, now that's a clear answer, although not the one I hoped! :-/ And fortunately, it's a genuine german Newton, not a schwyzerdütsch version, which would be way worse!
