I should have picked one up when they were in the $100's of dollars. 3DFX was a pivital company in making 3D video for gaming, and the 6000 never made it to market with maybe a fe…

well it was the last card made by 3dfx, and I think there was a mac edition thus making it the most powerful 3dfx card on mac Really tho aside from the memory capacity, there was …

Holy Moly, with 3 hrs left it's already at $1,666 or thereabouts. Can someone tell me what the fuss is about with this card? I understand it's a prototype and all but come on folks…

I posed this question on the "bringing back to life" thread but did not get any response most likely because I slipped it in as an afterthought. Although it works perfectly, I wo…

My God, look at the bidding on that card!!

I think I've figured it out, and it has nothing to do with Stuffit after all. The system is simply overheating. I turned it on yesterday evening and everything was working just f…

OK, if you're using 20 MHz oscillator in your mod, would you mind telling me where that 40 MHz signal for the processor comes from? :-D Click to expand... Well, apparently eac…

The following is taken from MacWorld's Mac Secrets, 5th Edition by David Pogue & Joseph Schorr: In reality, the Mac’s error codes aren’t nearly that enlightening. Fo…

"johnklos", _You can not make it work without the help of PLL chip in any way_!In all Quadras + IIVx this PLL works as Frequency doubler. That means, you put 12.5MHz in and out co…

Hi guys, Although we often mention Marc Schrier's page, we all should give a credit regarding this mod to that person from Japan, namely Hiromasa Yamaoka who was first to do suc…

Something else just occurred to me on the overheating possibility. Could it be the HD that's overheating and not the system? Tempest

The games will immediately crash again if I open them. But like I said it's not all the games, just certain ones. I'll crack 'er open and see if there's something loose inside or…

Ok yet another wrinkle. I had the Mac turned off for an hour or so while I did something else, came back, and now everything works. Shufflepuck, Fools Errand, Gunshy, they all wo…

I may have spoke too soon. Booting from a System Disk I still get errors in games. Shuffle Puck Cafe crashes with an illegal Instruction error after the Broderbund Screen (might …

I've been using Stuffit Deluxe 3.0.7 under System 6.0.8 on my SE/30 for ages now, although I must admit I don't use it that much at all. I use Stuffit Expander 5.5 more frequently…

I think you're right. Oddly it did work under System 6, it just caused everything else to have errors. Where can I grab the latest 3.x.x version? I assume that they're freew…

You never know - companies are still buying them, so it's just a matter of time before some older product becomes "obsolete" and the chips work their way onto eBay. Or if a company…

Tempest, 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…
