6500 Motherboard in a Performa 575? — #9

Bunsen is correct - in order to use the 6500 board in a 5200 or 5300 chassis, you must do the 3.3v regulator hack mentioned by johnklos.

Adding an LCD to a Color Classic — #16

Don't see why that should be a problem - The VGA output looks pretty standard, and 67HZ is about as basic and common a sync rate as you can find. But if for any reason it is an is…
