Alright, I got it all assembled. It's booted to my OS 9 disc, writing zeros on the 10gb drive, should take a while. I might burn OS X Jag again, since my copy is messed up.
Only t…

IT'S ALIVE!!!
I did some tweaking, and it turns out the motherboard in my main WS is shot somehow. I put the sonnet in the donor, and it boots!! So, my next goal is to swap ALL th…

Well, there is a firmware update for the processor card it's self, as well as a driver for it. I think I need to install the driver first, and I wonder if the firmware can be insta…

Wallstreets cannot get firmware updates do they? I would email their tech support and ask them what is wrong, and if they cannot get it working send the thing back (if there is a w…

hmmm don't really know much about the z80. i mainly focused on the 6502 because it was in all the machines i wanted to code for apple //, commodore 64, pc engine, and nes/snes, and…
68kMLADevelopmentby syntacsugarFri, 20 Mar 2009 - 01:35
I've never really liked the 6502, it's like an 8 bit CPU going out of it's way to limit everything to 8 bits.
For a simple accumulator CPU the 6800 more closely matched my model o…

hi everyone
i've been learning assembly language for a few weeks, and felt most comfortable doing it on an apple // well, and emulated apple // .i dont' have any money to buy a re…

Actually, macdan has a solution that does not involve finding the same hinges (all three displays use different hinges, but the same clutch). All you need to do is pop off the clut…

On side note, is it worth taking apart a 233 no L2 fully working and installing a 266 in unknown shape? I was given a wallstreet 14" that has bad hinges and has been stripped of …

Yes, incompatible RAM will give you death chimes (same if you forget to put any RAM in like I did once). Generally PC100 and 133 is labled as such, PC66 generally isn't unless it i…

No, I have 2 working motherboard (one in the main machine, and one in the parts donor), so I am set.
The other sound/power board in the main machine works perfectly, so I am keepi…

I have some Wallstreet 2 motherboards if need want to buy one.
Which sonnet card are you using that does not work? Any chance it needs PC100 RAM and you have PC66?
If the machine…

yeah, the case on the other one is really beat up, so I might as well swap in the mobo. But the power board on the other one is loose, so I have to hold in the power plug.
One new…

I'm no expert but it sounds like something on the logic board is screwy. If it was just the fan, I'd say it was a sensor but its the charging too that does it. Switch it all and …

Hi guys. I have my pride and joy, 300mhz 14" wallstreet PDQ, and I figure it's time to resurrect it to see if I can. IIRC, it has a problem with the fan staying on, from the time I…

Sometimes the most frustrating problems are the ones that you completely understand. I moved a few system resources from the start up folder on my G3 iBook (running OS 9,) and now …
I was on my iBook G4 tonight, when the machine froze up. I thought it was due to having a lot of tabs open in FireFox. I did the Command-Option-Escape command, but nothing came up.…

The software for your card is here.
You can format the "rest" of the disk with HFS once you've got GS/OS up and running (and updated to a non-buggy HFS driver) to recover the othe…

I was surprised to see that the ibook series stayed with the G3 all the way to 900mhz, and I am just wondering how those run 10.4, and how the high end 900mhz G3 compare against a …
