That sounds like a safe bet according to my book (MacWEEK Upgrading and repairing your mac). The tables are a little hard to decipher, but i'm guessing it's a class code 4 (Memory …

The error code theoretically tells you exactly which chips to replace. I don't have the codes handy at the moment but they can be found almost anywhere on the net. I've checked out…

Good point Bunsen. There was some software that allowed one to use both serial ports. This is exactly why the PowerBook 100 had a modem port replacement serial port, as many musici…

Thanks for the reply. The information I can find says that the 8600/9600 can use either EDO or FPM, but the Kansas MB's needed 60NS sticks. Of the two 8600's here, the 8600/200 h…

So I replaced the power board in my 128k and I am now getting Sad Mac 040002 at bootup. From what I can gather there is some bad memory on the motherboard that causes this. Does an…

Ladies and Gentlemen, I still cannot find the quote button in this forum. Did it get eliminated for some reason? I've opened this forum in FireFox and Safari but I still cannot see…

It's not like you're being paid to post more often or to be able to post very quickly. Click to expand... Exactly my point! We're not forced to post here, so once it becomes to…

The Midibox sequencer's response time is measured in nanoseconds. Of course, as you point out, MIDI is a serial protocol and very low bandwidth, so there is a limit to the timing …

LC III(+) wont work as theyre 25/33mhz, arent they? the 68882 on his card is 16mhz tho... 68882 would work with 020s... Im running a 68882 in my LC myself.

If you start up while holding Option-Apple-O-F, can you get back to the Open Firmware prompt? Another thing to try is a verbose boot - hold down V (or Apple-V) during startup. It…

Ladies and Gentlemen, I still cannot find the quote button in this forum. Did it get eliminated for some reason? I've opened this forum in FireFox and Safari but I still cannot s…

Apple didn't start using SDRAM (aka PC66, PC100 and/or PC133) type sticks until the Beige Power Macintosh G3 and G3 All-In-One models; sometime in late 1997 or early 1998. So, tha…

Anybody who used quotes in a reasonable manner shouldn't be affected anyway. If it takes you even fifteen full additional seconds to find the text you wanted to talk about and then…

If you have such a problem with people quoting uncontrollably, why not just PM them to stop doing it so much? Instead of ruining it for the rest of us?

I can't believe I used to print everything out and then OCR it back in! Click to expand... OMG OCR! I type it all in octal on a telephone pad

I took apart my Macintosh Portable this evening to make a count of the different capacitors I'll be needing to replace as part of the standard "holy crap this is old I need to repl…

JDW, be that as it may, I think we tend to lose a little perspective around here, due to our nostalgic love for these little B&W compacts. I was around then, and 9" B&…

There's 512MB of Ram (4 sticks) in the 9600 I just got but I can't find anything on the Chipmunk site that corresponds to the chip markings. They're Sonnet sticks but the Sonnet l…

You can still easily quote from the "Post a Reply" page. Click to expand... You know, until this thread came up I didn't notice the quote button on the reply page... I also did…

All you've done is inconvenienced people. Click to expand... not really, honestly I forget the quote button is there, why? I usually just highlight the point I want to focus o…

The 68020 was usually mated to the 68881. I'm not sure if they can be interchanged or not. The card is probably for the LC II and III/III+ (or maybe just the III/III+ if the connec…

Great points, JDW! A comment worth pointing out about the SE/30--according to the fourth edition of the Macintosh Bible, Apple was rumored to have been thinking about re-releasing…

Yeah seriously! Are you just trying to make it us harder for us?

I can't see what the big deal is, you should still be able to use quotes via BBCode. Its not as if we've banned quotes completely. This is a test. Testing testing one two thr…
