Bear in mind that version 4.01 was written during System 7's era. It wouldn't surprise me much that you may need to upgrade to 7 to fix the problem. Otherwise, try down…

With the help of a friend I finally have my Mac plus up and running. It has 4MB, a 500MB external HD, an CD Drive (an Apple CD150), and is running System 6.0.8. At first everythi…

Thanks. I did the MC88920/88916 swap, and pull pin 9 high (?) or something like that.http://homepage.mac.com/schrier/q605_40.html

Would you still need a heat sink/fan if you were using an 040 that was actually rated for 40mhz?

Yes. The 40 MHz part is made exactly the same as the 25 MHz …

At first I swapped resistors to go to 33MHz and afterwards I installed 40MHz oscillator, as per instructions on Marc Schrier's page.

Hi trag,
Yes, I've modified Q605, not LC475, althoug I've put a jumper on the MB after I went to 40 MHz, which changed its gestalt ID to LC475.
At first I swapped resistors to go…

nb: 40MHz is not always stable though. A heatsink/fan for the 040 would be a good idea.

I can confirm it - at 40 MHz heatsink is a must and you should use a…

If you can't find a socket with clips, you can get something like Arctic Silver thermal adhesive:

Don't try to pry one side out completely before the others. You'll bend some pins. You need to work around the CPU and try to pry all sides up a little at a time until it comes loo…

Check out this thread, it means that you've received a PM from a spammer, whose account has since been deleted. I get those emails too, and was wondering why until I saw that.
Shouldn't this be in the Lounge?
On a related note, often when I go there I get a "1 new PM is waiting for you..." message, but when I click it it tells me I have no new messages!
Hey, I was trying to sign up there and it stated, "to make sure you're not a bot contact the board admin" but there was no link to do so, what happened?
