2x256+2x1MB, Click to expand... Of course, that's 2.5MB! :I

All of my Duos have suffered from keyboard issues... though mostly a slow death rather than everything going at once. So I'd guess it's more likely a connection problem as H3NRY su…

I recall the Plus supported 256KB SIMMs and 1 MB SIMMs, in any combination of pairs. So 2x256 (which would be strange, since it's lower than it shipped with,) 4x256, 2x1MB, 2x256+…

Could be oxidation on the ribbon cable where it connects to the mobo. Unlatch the connector and wiggle the cable, then latch it again. Good luck. Yeh, the Duos are heavy as iBooks,…

That's a most peculiar board. There are RAM chips it looks like, and it takes power from the MB power connector. Could it be a video card designed to drive a standard 9-pin CGA mon…

What is the possibility that the mobo RAM chips were not upgraded to 512K? Click to expand... It is possible, but since it was much more common to upgrade the motherboard than …

Hi all, Thanks for your replies. Here a URL with a picture, hope it works: http://img43.imageshack.us/img43/3598/img0659j.jpg or http://yfrog.com/17img0659jj What program shou…

It is shocking how bad even some new houses are wired these days plus the bad carpentry and general construction. It is said that few newer houses will last for 100 years like olde…

Not to keep too far off-topic... My house is massively badly wired. The previous owner was an expert tile person. He re-tiled the house incredibly well (although it was in the 7…

In a pinch, you can use a nightlight or some other kind of light which doesn't draw a lot of power. Touch one prong to the grounded case of something plugged into a good outlet, th…

The biggest reason I didn't get it before is because it was always expensive to buy it directly from them and I could never find it used. I found a copy for $6, just the CD in a je…

You'll need to read the Read Me file about users with PowerPC upgrade cards. There's usually a section on that. It should be on the Install CD.

Your SE/30 should be able to format an 800k disk as single-sided 400k format with System 6 or 7.

The symptoms started after I added the RAM, which was about 2 weeks ago.

I think that some of the RAM might be bad, because the 8100 is now unstable. Click to expand... An X100 machine that old, there's a good chance that the heat sink grease is wor…

Ah, here we go. The Unofficial Turbo 601 Home Page: http://www.brinnoven.co.uk/turbo601/index.html And similarly for the PowerPro http://lowendmac.com/quadra/unofficial-powerpr…

You can also buy a little device that looks like an oversize 3-prong plug that you simply plug into an outlet and lights on the device tell you if the outlet is wired properly. On…

I did a handful recently, and uploaded them to the wiki. They look very nice at larger sizes. At 32px, I think I prefer the isometric view of the Icon Factory icons. YMMV. I'm …

Basically, I am, but I'm not. Like, I can use it, but I have to put up with my parents telling me about how Tracy Grimshaw or whoever the hell it is that does A Current Affair thes…

Unfortunately, the only way you're going to be able to test for anything is with a multimeter.

HOLY CRAP! THE Steve Landon! How'd you get that?! This guy has been hunted for years!

As much as I'd love to take it up to say, a gig...I can't imagine being able to find 2 512MB PC133 sticks around here for anywhere near a price that I'd want to pay. Click to ex…

"Steve Landon's Computer" Click to expand... Heheheheheh. Good times. Now let's work out who he stole that machine from.

WOW! Another reason not to smoke my friends.
