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 …

I've had issues like that when connecting the wrong type of floppy drive to an older machine. Try an older drive, closer to the LC era.

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…

It helps keep things organized if you dedicate machines to specific software/tasks. There are a few machines in my collection I got for free and was about to toss because they loo…

I finally got around during the past couple of days of idleness over the holidays to reassembling the IIfx (in Mac II case) mentioned in the above posts. Some observations: Dirt…

Very nice. Boxed stuff is so rare. I actually have boxes with no corresponding (serial # matched) machines... I have one for a 7600, one for a PowerBook G3, a G3 Tower, and an App…

Have you tried a different cable? Also, have you tried both the cable and drives on a different Mac? If you have, I'd say there's an issue with the SWIM chip.

nice

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…

Alright, if I can dig the machines out of storage in the next two days; I'm going to use only machines that were current the day my step-son was born (September 25, 1994.) This me…

I've never seen that external HDD, that looks cool. Click to expand... It's a floppy drive. The front piece kinda folds down and props the front end of the drive up a bit. Hard…

I've never seen that external HDD, that looks cool.

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…
