Adding a second hard drive to an SE 30 — #9

Macintosh Portable issues — #5

I looked at a bunch of bad backlit portable mobos for Houlton, and all of them had problems with the 5V power regulator, as does my own 5126. Apparently the integrated voltage refe…

It's been a long time since any new movies were made on a compact Mac. I'll be interested in what you come up with. This ought to run on anything up to an Se30, though there will b…

Overclocked MolarMac problem — #4

The 83 MHz bus is not entirely stable. Assuming a 400 MHz G3 chip is installed then the G3 chip is not overclocked, just the bus. Look up the jumper settings and downclock the bu…

I purchased that PSU from Jameco by the way. It wasn't anything special. I bought it specifically to drive my internal 7200rpm hard drive, lessening the load on the stock SE/30 P…
