I tried reseating the chips and no luck. I'm not sure how to clean the sockets honestly. The problem is also present on the composite output. The monitor is an Apple RGB monitor …

Looks like the AppleColor RGB monitor the IIgs is paired with normally. There is no character ROM on a IIgs, it is stored in the main ROM. Have you performed a self-test? Hold down…

What kind of monitor is this? Have you tried it on a Composite Monitor? If not, check your VGA Settings. 

Hi folks... I have a technical question (?) on Chris Lawson's VGA mod of the Color Classic.: http://colourclassicfaq.com/general/vga.html First, I would like to quote a post mad…

I'd remove the socketed chips, clean contacts and reseat first

I've had a "Mystic" VGA-modded Colour Classic with LC575 board which has been running fine for a decade, and it's one of my most used 68K Macs.  I was also given a "Takky" VGA-modd…

You can find 10" "flatscreen" monitors out there, but you'll have two problems to overcome. The flat screen won't fit the very curvy bezel that housed the very not-flatscreen Sony …

Well it increases the current tails in the horizontal output circuitry so it swings the beam harder.  But the problem with this, it adds stress to the sweep circuitry so eventuall…

I thought about this. Can you tell me which one is it? Just so you know, I also replaced the VGC chip and it made no difference. Thanks!! Pitou

My guess would be something with the character ROM?

Hello, I have an issue with an Apple IIgs. The text is kind of doubled in Text mode. When I boot a system disk, in graphic mode, everything is fine. I have some experience in elec…

I have read that the flyback transformer in the Color Classic was slightly undersized to began with.  And then, because of venting issues, it became slightly hotter then it would l…

I don't own a CC and haven't done this modification, but I've looked at the horizontal sweep circuits of the B&W compacts in some detail. I think the CRT shouldn't be your…

Hi... My TV is the very last CRT HD Sony TV.  Deep, deep blacks, and pure whites.  Yes, it is only HDMI 1.1, but I love the 1920 X 1080p picture. No motion artifacts. I am gettin…

Yea, I know... I fubared that one up pretty good. But, oh well... 

OK, I love the attempt at being a wiseguy, but TK, you typed THE ENTIRE URL into the google search box.  LMFAO

Hi... I would like to pull the analog board in my Color Classic.  Any one know of a web site (that is not dead) that has good photos of this?  I have the Mac Service manual, but t…

You could use transparent filament, then run an extra LED from the HDD to the floppy cover.

Kensington made the Turbo Mouse from 1986 for the original Macs and for the Apple II (presumably with mouse card). Features include two buttons for left and right handed use, and a…

Once, I needed a drive cover for an SE. I didn't have an extra, but I did have a scrapper platinum IIe. I used a coping saw, files, and sandpaper to cut a makeshift one from part o…

Cut the @$$ end off a micro-floppy and hot glue it into the slot so it looks like it's been ejected. If someone has a clear/translucent micro-floppy to sell you, add LED edge lit H…

It would not print the right colour, it would be pure white.  But if I were to buy a drive cover off of eBay, for example, it would be a different colour anyway, since my case is s…

3-D printing with ABS filament is very cool, but does it come in the right color? Is resolution high enough to re-create the subtly texturing of the SE's Case? If I can find my mu…
