It sounds like you're not even getting a bong. Which is what leads me to CPU card seating problems. Click to expand... Yes, I had been getting the chime, but now I'm not. I'l…

The cache modules show IDT as the maker. Click to expand... Thanks Unknown_K, this is the same as mine. From what I've read online, the cache works under OS 7.01 and 7.1 but t…

Speed is of coarse the driving factor for most using the Mac Pro. I think the loss of PPC support will eventually get a lot of people to move on once Apple stops releasing securit…

To add to my original post: I will be upgrading to the 8-core Mac Pro when I finally retire my G5. I fully expect 6-7 years of continuous service from such a machine. Click to e…

I got a Dual 1.8Ghz G5 w/ 1GB (4x256MB) RAM and a 160GB HDD off of Craigslist for $240 (was 280) Runs great. Did a few upgrades. Swapped the 160 for a 1TB Green HDD (Western Digi…

I don't think it was heat. It is in a cool environment, the fan in it works fine, and the case never gets hot. I always hear this pippling noise whenever I start the SE up or shut…

I don't think you mentioned the CPU card. Given the symptoms, my guess would be a faulty/poorly installed CPU card. Try removing and reseating it. If that fails, unplug the powe…

If you do not have anything connected to the built-in video (you don't, do you, even a Mac-to-VGA adapter counts here) then the Mac should detect this and default the start-up scre…

Repackaging the SIMM ROM types in DIPs is no doubt achievable but you need a lot of motivation to try it. Trag knows about repackaging soldered ROMs as SIMMs from his work on the I…

software patching cannot handle everything. If it could, the 512K could boot directly from an HD20. Click to expand... No it couldn't... it would have to boot from a floppy to …

The Outbound Laptop Model 125 could use either the Plus ROM or the SE ROM. I think that all of mine use the Plus ROM. It would be interesting to see one which uses the SE ROM t…

Could be that teh power supply is getting marginal. If it drops too far below 5V you'll see behaviour like that. The fix could be as simple as turning the voltage adjustment scr…

If you can figure out the serial connection to OS X part the you could just sign up for a RetroNET account (type "telnet retro-net.org" at the prompt), that will give you access to…

I'm old-skool. And no, I didn't think so, but thought I'd ask.

Probably not. BTW, the 9500 uses DIMMs not SIMMs.

Am I right in assuming, from the replies, that no one thinks that putting in the two RAM SIMMs affected the 9500's condition?

... I'm surprised though you've not been able to find the cache cards - seemingly a leisurely trip in local hard rubbish would reveal a slew of 486 and Pentium 1 machines with the …

OK thats all I needed to know

Compacts rock! I love my 512k. My Classic 2... Eh not that much :lol:

You can try it, I have.... it won't hurt anything.......but it won't work either.

Yeah those are what I see on mine... So Can I just try it out for fun or will my iMac s'plode?

I'm at uni now, and all my Macs at home, so I can't power up my iMac for confirmation, but I'm fairly sure I remember that the iMac supports these resolutions, ONLY at these refres…

Rise of the Compacts!

Very nice. As for the WGS 95 card...I'm fairly sure that you actually need A/UX in order for it to work. It'll run with 7.01 or 7.1 installed...but I don't think it'll actually …
